in up to her elbows...

"To say yes, you have to sweat and roll up your sleeves and plunge both hands into life up to the elbows." -Jean Anowth So life is crazy for the bohemian right now... the card above is a graduation card for her daughter. Her baby daughter. Who's graduated!!! Where. Did. The. Time. Go........?!
Eighteen and off to try her wings....
next: #3 child & 2nd son... Marrying this summer!!! The bohemian is ever so happy as she adores this beautiful girl!! and the bohemian stamped up a storm at her quilty sister-in-law's playhouse because she also does rubber stamps, does this crafty sis-in-law!!!! one of the tag folders coming along... needs a few more things... a gorgeous summer day spent with #1 daughter (yes, the eccentric one who is soooo much fun!!!) went to proper tea at the Tea Garden, then shopped at the community farmers' market, which you see above... a bit of shopping, then COFFEE... then a string of rainy wintery days... brrrr! so she stayed indoors. played scrabble with a friend, read her beloved books, played in her art room, visited the library... and got out her "rainy day mug"... it says: "SMILE AT THE RAIN". this is a beloved seattle piece of art. it shows up on mugs, t-shirts, umbrellas, etc. And this little guy is on the back of her mug, just smiling away at the rain.... Hope you do, too..... Smile today....

  2. If I couldn't smile at the rain I'd certainly be crying all the time, haha!

    I went to graduation this year - my former students I had as little 7th graders are now all grown up and you really do wonder where the time went! I wonder how they can be growing up when I seem to stay the same age?

    On your comment - you know I've never found sea glass which is why I thought it was kinda funny to have "desert glass." I guess I don't visit the coast often enough!
