Oh Yuck! Saturday night I noticed an itchy place on the back of my right thigh. It looked like a tag that had become irritated due to scratching. It was quite red and it looked like there was a little blood around the place where it was attached to my thigh.
Well, yesterday I took a better look in better light and saw what looked like some little black hairs around it and it looked more like something that was burrowing into my thigh rather than a tag so I tried to pull it and underneath the flesh was a very small dark insect. I used a magnifying glass to try to figure out what it was. I was relieved to see it had antennae and six legs. Ticks do not have antennae and they have eight legs. I think it is probably my first bed bug ever.
My yearly dermatology appointment is tomorrow. I will get the verdict on that and some other concerns. It certainly is another Monday with a lot to do and a lot of problems. On to the others! We all just march on! Be sure to click on my new Youtube below that was uploaded today!

Technology and me do not mix and it is almost always my fault. I worked on another Demo Youtube today and it ran too long. I was just about finished when the beep came on. Not enough room on the card. ARGGH! I knew it was longer than some of my other ones but I didn’t think it was that long.
Oh well. From now on I will have a clock in front of me so I can make sure it does not run over. Since the paintings are done in layers I think I will still use this one and just get to the next layer.
Anyway, I am glad to sell another print of Memphis Lights to a great VA patron! Sold a lot of prints of this commissioned painting. It is my best selling Skyline Beauty painting!
Be sure to check out my latest Youtube below! Lots of great comments on this one!

As I have said before, my Yoga Mantra that I keep to myself is, “I hate Yoga, I hate Yoga, I hate Yoga.” I would never tell our great teacher that and I will never stop going to class. Yoga is so helpful. Monday I hurt my back and thought I was in for a bad spell. I took it easy and by nightfall it was hardly hurting at all.
Tuesday morning the pain was completely gone! I really think that is because I do Yoga every day. I don’t like doing it at all but I love what it does for me. I guess I should try a more positive mantra. Not going to happen. I would rather be painting or just about anything else.
Anyway, Yoga really does rock! Maybe one of these days my mantra will be, “Yoga rocks, yoga rocks, yoga rocks!” I think everyone should force themselves to do it!
Be sure to click on my latest Youtube Demo video! I am still making one a week!

I am so tired trying to keep up with all that I do. Trying to relax and appreciate some quiet time. So I hope everyone has a great weekend and be sure to check out my new collection, “Simple Variations”, on my website! I have another painting uploaded and plan to upload a few more soon. The second one is below.

I am pleased to present a new Collection on my Website called Simple Variations! There are only two paintings there right now but there will be more. All of my work is loaded with all the colors of the rainbow in small brushmarks and complicated systems of texture.
Some of them are impasto paintings. Thees painting have a unique surface that has different elevations throughout the painting.
In this collection I am taking a much simpler approach with just a few colors and none of them are impasto paintings. They are all acrylic paintings on small pieces of paper with a colored paper background.
Something different! Very different for me!

A few days ago Clyde and I went out for a cup of coffee, just coffee. It was nice to get away from the computer and relax. When the waitress brought us the coffee she didn’t bring any straws. When Clyde picked his up to drink it I was surprised. I always use straws.
You are going to drink that without a straw?
Yes.
I always use straws when I eat out.
Well, I am Macho Coffee drinker.
Okay. I get the hint. Mucho Macho Muchacho!
Drink away.

Well, I made chocolate bread and I don’t like it. Not sweet enough for me. I know there are people at our church that do not have the sweet tooth I have so I will take it there for after church reception. I’ll bet it will go like hot cakes!
I can’ believe I am going to Yoga on a Saturday but my Friday class was cancelled and I really need a class. I can’t make myself do more than twenty minutes of Yoga at home. I need that teacher telling me what to do for an hour so I can get a good work out.
I also need to finished a Youtube painting and work on a new Blue Ridge painting. We workaholics are hopelessly busy. I need to take a day off. Yeah, like that is going to happen.
Oh well. Happy Weekend everyone!

We had two Trick or Treaters . Last year no one came by. I was surprised to have any since it was raining and the wind was howling. We sure do end up with a lot of candy which is nice.
I told Clyde we probably didn’t need to buy candy anymore.
Yeah, if we didn’t buy candy a bus with fifty kids would drive up to our house and completely egg it.
Right. That is why I buy a lot of it every year.
