today......... rain? sun? clouds?

who knows

mother nature is got a bit of pms going on

as have my duckies

who btw are not talking to me again......don't you love it when a duck gets pissy?

today, in between working on peaches and blueberries
i will be working (oh man forever it feels like now) on the studio
especially since last night, the CATS murdered a mouse
by asphyxiation with a plastic bag
i am sure it was an accident, as these cats don't seem to intentionally be able to actually KILL a mouse.
if the mouse somehow dies while they are all engaged, believe me it's an accident
mice LAUGH at my cats
maybe this mouse was trying to stop hyperventilating from laughing at these cats and used the plastic bag?
where upon my boy......... THADDEAUS, sat on him
it was all very accidental i know
as i know these cats

i said to bernie,
WHAT is that NOISE??????????

he said (in alarm) 'put on the big light
HURRY........'

and yup it was a mouse in the bag
(which is sorta like a jack in the box, except no jack and no box)

meanwhile if you all could SEE my studio..... well actually it's such a nightmare you really can't see it at all
that's the problem............oye

it does look like a nice day out though
maybe i can get some of the other stuff out and spray painted?
i have a list of plastic stuff to do
arco boxes
plastic green drawers ( ewwww the green is hidious)
vinyl coated tv cart which SHALL be cream
metal file cabinets
old icky bookcase
desk
old child bookcase
mommy's mahogany tables ( all three, i NEVER liked those dark colors)
anything that doesn't move fast enough.....
i am again on a mission, which has been delayed by mother nature

oh btw
i got them slitted cutter thingies
thank you everyone
i got them at staples...... 2-2.99 but i had to order them on the website! and have them delivered (free) to the store

now my NEXT quest is for 18'' wide either fabric or heavy vinyl wallpaper (scrubable but NOT prepasted) to line the shelves of my studio with
the problem is
i can't make up my mind!
do i get a stripe or toile or a nice english country cottage print
maybe with flowers?
and the color?
i kept thinking black and cream toile
but really i am not sure
i also love clear colors...... the house is in a raspberrie sherbert ( living room)
orange creamcyle (halls) with lemon sherbert and eggnog trim
( and navy blue lamps which really does make it look good, and not as airy and fairy princessy as it sounds......actually it LOOKS gutsy and men even like it)
so
do i use those colors in here
( the walls will be whitewashed with the eggnog color)
or do i go with something totally different
or do i sorta coordinate but change
oye
i guess the thing will end up with
whatever is cheapest and on sale no?
so cream will be all over
creamy colored cheapo fabric drop cloths
hahahaha
and if i get a 'fabric'
it may end up cottagey simple cause i will get one fabric here and one there and sort of patch them all together
but i really wish i had the actual colors figured
cause i want to paint the file cabinets and some other stuff in a 'color' not cream
and i don't know what 'color' that should be
although probably magenta and lighter would be right on for me

btw
as a funny aside
i have definate 'favorite' colors and shades
yesterday we ran down to easton and also stopped at the hobby shop for bernie
i was wearing a sort of violet/purple/ rosey purple color and white striped seersucker blouse
i had to get a new exacto knife for me
they had one purple one............ yup you guessed it
the EXACT COLOR of the purple in my shirt
i really do like what i like and that is that

til next time

vi

    Wonder of wonders, it appears that we are about to enjoy another DRY day and lots of sun. Right now I'm wishing I knew how to drive a tractor. I'd be out there cutting some hay for gathering up later. Alas, I can't drive a tractor or know how to use haying equipment. So the hay still stands. OY!

    I hope you are making an adventure of organizing your studio. That's what I'm doing in my attic. Another load hauled out yesterday. It's amazing what a dump truck can do for a persons organizing skills.......hahahaha
