    1. Busy-ness comes in waves, either all or none. I have my fair share of being a slug ๐ŸŒ

    1. There are times I feel like I'm dancing as fast as I can. That's all one can do.

  6. You've been busy or are busy. I've been working on a few projects myself; now if only I could feel like there was more time in a day to finish them. Smile. Hugs-Erika

    1. I think that feeling will come as it gets lighter in the afternoon. Did you see yesterday at 4:15p it was still light outside?

  7. Sessions in museums? Never heard of that, but I cleaned big yesterday :-)
    And I just love poppies, still have a sachet of seeds from a friend hanging right here.
    Last year I was in Perth and they celebrate Chinese New Year big - I nearly dropped my cam when a dragon went at me, LOL.
    Celtic sounds interesting, too.
    I´m planning on your "Words for the Year" - first time I plan something arty at all, and I´m having a hard time, too!
    Especially now that I admitted! ;-)

    1. I teach at the Worcester Art Museum. The museum offers art classes Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter. Sessions are 6 to 10 weeks depending on the time of the year and the class.

      I'll be interested in your art project. Sometimes those things need a chance to percolate.

    2. LOL. I only know that sauce, sits right there at the kitchen (sorry, but you just made me to! ;-)...)

      Well. the three "words" are already on the paper.
      And now I´m stuck a bit! But I´m at it.
      And I thank you.

    1. Busy enough without going crazy and different stuff so can’t complain about boredom

  9. Wow, that is a lot CJ! I have actually be doing some Spring cleaning and I have been doing some painting too, in between snow shovelling! LOL! And, trying to get my Etsy shop back up. It's been too long!

  10. I'm working on getting better. I'm super impressed with your incredible schedule. I REALLY want one of those rat stamps!!! Before you say it, NO, I don't order anything on the internet.

    1. Your post office should have the stamps. They went on sale 1/11

    2. The little PO I go to never has any. They either don't order them or they are sold out by the time I get there. Last summer I wanted the Fair stamps and I asked for the moon stamps, but they never got any in. When I asked if they had the scented stamps, they said no, but the BIG PO downtown had some. When I got there, they had ONE set of 20 (I think) left and I got it. The clerk even asked the other clerks to check, but they had none, either. Sadly, Wichita either doesn't order enough, or there is no interest in these unique stamps.

    3. Oh, that's too bad. https://store.usps.com/store/results/2020-stamps/stamps/_/N-ehnjmhZ9y93lv?_requestid=424100 This link is for the new 2020 stamps that are being issued soon. If you click on the stamp, you will see the date of issue. That way you can try to get to your post office on that day so you can be one of the first to get that special stamp
