Rediscovering the Missing Blog

For some strange reason I have rediscovered my Blog! I started it a couple of years ago just mucking about to see if I could master the process of actually starting one, which I did and lo and behold I was looking at other blogs and somehow mine came up on the screen - it was as if it was giving me a nudge and saying "come on I've been here waiting and you never got back to me". My first post was pretty  average and so is this one most likely.  
I have just finished a fabulous E- course by Kelly RaeRoberts it was full of excellent info that is so helpful for setting up an E Business. 
This I have yet to do as I am still a fledgling and have to master Blog world first, not to  mention the most important thing is to have some actual products to sell!!  My paintings are usually on  large canvases but I have started painting smaller ones that I think would be easier to make prints from so I can hopefully sell. 
I am having a couple of weeks holiday from my dreaded day job and enjoying time in my art room - I even cleared a space on my table to actually work on as most of the space is taken up with materials, a good Spring clean never goes astray.  
The rest of the room  is a bit of a nightmare though but at least I know (most of the time) where things are. Tomorrow is another day.

Too Early


This is my first blog ever!! I have been up since 3.15am as I get my husband off to work (he would wake me up anyway) then I usually go back to bed where most normal people would go. Alas, today I was browsing the net and thought I would create my own blog - a terrible word I think. The sun is coming up and the birds are starting to make their early morning chatter, my cats want to go out and no doubt climb the trees - this isn't allowed until at least another 2 hours because some poor little feathered friend will end up cat's breakfast.

The weather here is so hot and makes sleeping very uncomfortable - it also brings out the mozzies and other insects that make their appearance at night, especially huge garden spiders - the thought of them taking a stroll across my face during the night is a scary one. I won't kill them as they are part of nature and play a part in it, I have to get them outdoors somehow, like the other night I found one in the shower so I covered him with a mesh food cover - (they are so handy to have) after a lot of chasing him around and me doing the odd hopping and jumping about to avoid him (or her) I finally captured him and put him in my back garden where I hope he decides to stay forever, surely it is much nicer outside.

Why do they like my bathroom so much??
