and it was good!

In spite of my ongoing battle with the pollen and my sinuses, yesterday was a very good day! I spent a lovely hour or more in the flower garden, just puttering! Isn't this a gorgeous amaryllis:

Every year I buy several bulbs in the fall, we enjoy them over the holidays and then I plant them in my perennial bed in the spring, so we enjoy them year after year.

My foxgloves are just stupendous this year, and the False Indigo is about at its peak:


Sorry if I bore you with these photos, but I just cannot get enough of my spring flowers!

I also had some free studio time in the afternoon. I had been tinkering with new color combos and decided that this scarlet red would liven up the very dull background:


I ended up liking the results so much that I've kept this shirt for myself! Today was our church's picnic, so I wore the new tee and received many compliments.

Here's another, which is a special order for a client who wanted 'bright':



I'm trying out a new brand of tees. This is a size medium, but after washing, it appears to be a small to me. I like how the colors came out so muted. Even I can do pastels and muted colors occasionally!


OK, the comments are down, but the viewer numbers are still high........so what is the trouble? Am I boring you guys or what? What would you like to talk about? I feel like I'm doing all the work here.....I know that my family members are viewing too, and even they are not commenting! One of my friends said that she felt like she was being a voyeur when she read my blog, and she didn't want to leave a comment for that reason. Is that the problem? Well, I wouldn't be hanging it all out by writing and posting pictures if I didn't want folks to read and comment now would I?

Blogger is switching over to the RSS feed from Blogarithms tomorrow, so I'm not sure how that is going to affect our lives. I've always felt that change is good, but for some reason the RSS feed makes me uneasy. Hope the transition goes smoothly for all! NOW LEAVE A COMMENT!


PEACE
