So Smoke an Aplomb Copy


C3PO Star Wars (1977) authentic unopened soap model
Hey- look what I found on eBay! We used to have one of these and it 'fell' down the heat register and we had to smell it for years whenever the blower went on- I guess hot air activated the essential oils in this hideous smelly thing. (And coat hangers unbent had no effect in retrieving it so as far as I know, after 25 years, it is still sending off it's fumes in our old house.)

I had my photography appointment today and got 3 quilts, the triptych, and 2 large canvasses done. I was going through my files and am missing so many slides- will have to figure it out and have them re-done or get dups made of those I am low on. I have SO fallen back in the record-keeping department! Poor Milo was there in the studio and so needy and lonely. What a fantastic dog. David isn't doing well either and I am having my doubts about how much longer he will be doing what he's doing because of the strobes. Who knows, maybe it is something that can be fixed but it doesn't sound good.

Oatmeal cookies are almost done, and then I get to fill out these entry forms. Like Nancy says, "Ya don't get accepted if ya don't enter!". her other famous quote to me was "Cut it off already!". One thing you can do is trust that woman for the truth.

And now for the main reason that I don't want to be a grandma:
Isn't this the scariest kid you ever saw, but maybe he (she) (it) is simply plotting his parents nursing home choice for dressing him like this. Folks, stay away from Borrocco. and future grandchildren of mine can rest easy that I will stay clear of their Hallowe'en costume designs. Besides, Nate still hasn't forgiven me for making him wear his jammies with the cotton balls glued all over it the year he was a bunny. Seems the glue dried hard, real hard...the poor kid had open wounds from the costume but fortunately was so distracted by the idea that people would GIVE him candy that he didn't notice. (Whew, I just escaped that instance of child abuse by a hair.) Now this kid's mother should be incarcerated- maybe she could make Martha some new garments, I am real sick of her tatty poncho. So flattering.
