IT'S GONNA GET WARMER, RIGHT??

Well, it was 4* on our porch thermometer this morning...I think the last time it was down to a single digit, was about 4 years ago, while we were living in our horse trailer. Yes, that was our abode for 6 months while we built our house...from July 9 - February 22, 2005...not one of those fancy ones either. We have a Classic fully enclosed aluminum 3 horse slant...very nice for our animals. The front is a dressing room - queen size bed in the gooseneck, room to stand, maybe turn around and get your britches on or off, whatever the situation calls for! Other than that, the only extra is an in-roof air conditioner. Anyhow, we lived for 2 months with NO power or water (hottest part of the summer, of course!), then we dug a well, but showering was done at a campground about 6 miles from here. Oh well, back to the temperature...it was 9* one morning when we woke up and we sure found our clothes in a hurry!! Now today, we're snug as a bug in our little house, but oh, the memories!!
This morning I got up about 7AM and started painting...I finished a pendant, a barn wood sign, a wooden sconce with crows in a tree AND a really cute photo album with a raccoon on the front! I like all of them and I feel like I've accomplished alot today. I guess what they say about idle hands...I'm still looking forward to moving out into the new space any day! I'll be sure to post more pictures when I do!! Checking out now from AWESOME ASS ACRES!

My view from my NEW work space!

My NEW work area! YEA!!!

Well, I've decided to post some pictures of my new studio space, even though it's not completely finished,yet! I'm so excited about this addition...if you folks could see where I paint-- oh, what the heck, I'll post pictures of that, too!! Since we moved into this house, I've painted in front of my computer...only place that I could leave my paints set up! So, we're talking about an area about half the size of a TV tray!! So far, only once have I spilled my cup of water on my keyboard...(no damage that I know of!) The pictures show the window where I'll set up my paint area...it looks out over a section of our pasture- one, where we graze our Haflingers, the other section is for our 1 pygmy nanny goat, Blossom. They all must be in the holler in this shot! The other room that I've posted is another bedroom, it's always a cruel joke to think that you actually downsize when you "retire"!! HA!!

I'm also very pleased with some "fowl" things that I've listed on Ebay...a couple of guinea signs and a bowl that has shows a crow perched in a tree, on the inside. Be sure to check them out! Thanks for stopping by AWESOME ASS ACRES...come back anytime!!
