Saturday
I love the sunset colors of the nasturtium, and the creamy white phlox. The really old varieties smell sooooo good. I have this photo on a journal, and ran across it in a book I bought for the garden art inside. I've shredded the book to bits, tearing & cutting out the illustrations to use in several products I'm preparing for the Farm Chicks show. At the last minute, I realized I hadn't saved the images, so I scanned them in and now they can be re-used in future products.
Sigh. Sometimes I just get on such a bender that I'm goin' a hundred miles an hour and I forget the small stuff! I am seriously thinking that this particular item will be staying at home with Deb, instead of heading to Spokane in less than two weeks for the show. If you love this image, too, please do feel free to save it for your own use...
We've done some serious damage today on our 'To Do' list, and all of the painting has been completed just in time - as I type this, the sky is darkening as the clouds to roll in from the East, which is a bit strange for us. The rain will soon begin to fall, and the humidity levels rise. So it's good that we've reached this first goal already!
This evening, before sunset, we took a break to sit at the beach, eat dinner, and relax for a bit before heading back to our projects. It was lovely, quite restorative, and my hubby made a perfect observation: "We're supposed to be loving what we do. Missing an entire sunny day because 'the list' is so long is not how we want to build this business." Smart man! The two hours we took 'off' really was time well spent...together.
