spoiler alert: today's post has nothing to do with paint, glue guns, thread, mix masters or our home

Yep. Taking a much-deserved break today. No photos. Just words. Oh, and I'll keep it brief ...

... oh, and I'll post before 8 AM so my friend "who will remain unnamed" can enjoy my wit and whimsy with her morning coffee ...

... no pressure there.

So I've been writing and creating and and painting and photographing ... and editing said photographs ... like a crazy person since launching on October 29th.



In fact -- as my recently retired neighbor across the street can attest to -- I started all this crazy in September. (He watched me out of the second floor window ... and that sounds like the start of a creepy Stephen King novel ... as I attacked my front porch).


But today I take a break. I need to make some costumes for my daughter's school (how 1950's does that sound?), take some photos of the 'hood to share on Christmas day, and get completely distracted and absorbed in this ...

 

My book's cover claims there is a major motion picture of this story.  I have not seen nor heard of that.  If it was already released, then shame on that director and producer for not doing this amazing and fascinating and horrifying story its due justice ... though I may have missed all the hoopla because I've been so busy painting and gluing and creating ....


So for my friend "who will remain unnamed," I'm publishing this words-only post before 8 AM ...
...and I blame any and all typos on you ... ;)
