I rally like that one Moon....lizards!

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

It helps to have an inventory, especially for the trading you are doing....you know what you have so you don't overlap. Can you imagine scooting around town in that shoe.....grin?

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Me too...it is called Three Lizards Teasing Two Snakes....the Aboriginal folk are very literal....grin

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

I love it and the shoe, but I have a bit of a shoe fetish

Dumb question is anise hyssop an annual or perennial?

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Perennial. Here is a site you may find useful.....I certainly do.

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

Thanks Moon. Trying to mark on the list annual/perennial, store or overwinter...you know as much detail as I can get

Glenview, IL

LOL, coffee break already!
what can I say, had to fight morning rush hour.

Also, Trina, Congrats on the no smoking!! Your doing great.
(I know, from days ago..but, I am always behind in things)

Moon, those are incredible Arts pieces. Did you go to a museum?
Are they paintings or other mediums?

Good morning Smiley!

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

Thanks seed...unfortunately I broke my record and had one last night. so start over.

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

Dahlia's are annuals Right?
and how many windows can you have open before your computer goes I hate you?

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

The first one is paint on a real record album, a gift from my daughter. The next two are prints from silk screened art and the last is an original silk screened piece I found in a small gallery in Sydney....the piece I really wanted was exquisite and was a 5ft by 5ft original canvas called Woman in Dreamtime....couldn't afford the painting AND the shipping/insurance....couldn't justify spending 3500 for shipping....I know, what a tightwad....grin

Glenview, IL

Welll, 1? gotta say not so bad, considering you smoked a couple packs a day, didn't you?
Will just keep up the good work, pretty soon 1 will even be nasty to you.

...I am a smoker too, go up and down all the time, I did stop smoking for 4.5 months!
Time and patients, you can do it again, lol me too...soon.

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Dahlias are perennial bulb plants. http://www.dahlias.net/

Glenview, IL

They are real nice pieces Moon, I especially like the Album.

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

thanks Moon I know I am a pain

Seed Thanks for the encouragement

My Brain hurts now! I'm not even like one 5th of the way through this list and my brain is on overload! How Venice could sit there so patiently and do this...Santa is definately getting her something VERY nice for christmas!

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

It would seem that someone donated a huge stack of albums to an Aboriginal village. They had no idea what to do with them as no one in the village had a phonograph and most no electricity....sat around for a few years before a couple of the local artists needed something to paint on.....Brilliant use of old albums....grin

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

yes it is Moon! alright I gotta cut the tops off of my orchid glads and get them laid out so they can dry, wondering how or if I can do the same with my sweet potato vines

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Yup. you can do ipomoeas the same way.

Here are a couple pieces my eldest son did for me...frames and all Hummingbird

my dad loves wolves! but then the english translation for his last name means King Wolf! Darned Sicilians as if they weren't bossy enough!

Glenview, IL

Wow, those are incredible!!
Does he still paint?

Love the Howl.

Kenmore, NY(Zone 6a)

Beautiful stuff, Moon. I love wolves, too.

Hi Seeds!

Good organizational skills on the spreadsheet Trina. Venice gave you a good start, now you can customize it and it can be your journal!

I found that IE (internet explorer - the big blue E) kind of sucks if you have a bunch of them open. Firefox is much more friendly for that.

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

my netbook doesn't like firefox, or I'm just too set in my ways...LOL

Yes she did give me a good place to start! I was so overwhelmed I didn't know where to start...I love it!

Kenmore, NY(Zone 6a)

That's the hardest part of organizing.

I learned the hard way at work - one year we had a REALLY hot summer and the 2 other girls went off in July and had babies. I was left with a temp who didn't know much of anything at the time. It forced me to organize not only the papers, but my time.

The bad thing is, now I can tell when someone's stuff and/or time isn't organized.

Kenmore, NY(Zone 6a)

Trina, what's Chupy gonna be for Halloween? I know you said, many threads ago, but I forgot.

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

trying to decide between a cheerleader and the witch! not sure yet, she's all curled up in my sweatshirt right now!

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Thanks all, Actually, those are both wood-burnings. He painted the frame for the hummers, but all the work was done with a woodburning tool. He also did intarsias and carvings, but is taking a break right now....hopefully he will pick it up again after the first of the year.

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

He's really good Moon!

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Thanks Trina. I find it fascinating that he can take a piece of hot metal and a slab of wood and turn out something so cool.

I also find it fascinating that he can do that and is related to me....LOL

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

lol....
