~~ Ok, so no picture today, as I'm inbetween (that's not a word, but it's MY word, so there...) getting in and out of the studio this morning..and that's why I'm not trying to take a picture of some of the new things I've made ~~

The reason being, the FULL MOON ~~ is driving me crazy ~~ No, I'm not one to go off the deep end and do things that people tell me about 10 years from now..no, no. It's that the effect of the full moon is making little Miss Muffett act just like a 2-year old, trying out every thing known to man to drive the parents NUTZ !!! ~~

First thing that dog does, is at exactly 7 a.m. this morning, I'm sound, and I do mean SOUND asleep, and I hear this cruuunnchhing sound outside the bedroom window..like an animal eating something that's probably not supossed to be eaten...So I bolt upright out of my good and solid sleep, hop up and look out the window just in time, to see the dog digging crud out of the trash bags...

"GET OUT OF THAT!!!" -- I scream so loudly, that it hurt my throat for about 10 minutes afterwards...The Dog goes slinking away, hiding her head the best she can, and I lay back down in bed, trying to calm myself down, and hoping for the best that I get back to sleep.

But Wait!! ~~ YET again, I'm sound asleep, dreaming something that seemed pretty good, and out of the blue, I hear this very loud, "HEY MAAAAA!!!!"

Naturally I once again, but not nearly to a standing position, just sorta kinda sitting up in bed, get to where I'm thinkin I'm aware of my surroundings, and ask very, very shakily, "WWHHAAATT>>??"

"HI!!..You sleepin?"

It's Noah doin' HIS best interpretation of being a Total Pain in The A** >> Which before now I'd considered his Father the One and Only Household Pain in The A**

I'm so irritated, semi-awake, and feeling pretty Pissed Off at this point, and it's not even 8:15 in the morning...So, with this last "Friendly Wake-Up", I finally decided to crawl out of bed, 'cause it sure as $%^#&* didn't look like I was gonna get anymore sleep this morning...

And after having some breakfast (Can't even remember what kind of cereal I ate..maybe like "Cocoa Roo-iess!!!! Loaded With Goodness for You!!" and on my 2nd cup of coffee, when after letting The Dog out yet once again, 'cause she's actin' like she's GOTTA GO RIGHT NOW..I walk back into my bedroom to get something, and wouldn't ya know it..there Little Miss Muffett is, once again, EATING SOMETHING IN THE TRASH ONCE AGAIN...

Never, ever EVAH let it be said that the full moon doesn't effect animals just as badly as it effects humans..'causele' me tell you..let me TELL YOU..IT DOES!!

I've had to yell at that #%"&$#dog 4 times this morning, an' right now it's just after 9:30 in the morning...

LAWDY ~~ If this is what the New Year is going to be like, well..my middle son said that he saw airline tickets to the Florida Keys at their lowest price of the year..an' ya know what? I may jus' check out a couple of those flights outta here, 'cause this ol' girl just ISN"T READY for this kinda $^%*$ to keep goin' on!! Ya know what I Mean??!!


An' I was gonna talk about all the goodies I got done yesterday, but right now I think I'm gonna go an' pour another cup of coffee instead, an' gently ask Noah jus' why the ###%^ he;s running a drill in the wall between the Studio and his bedroom....

Did I mention the Full Moon and It's Effects on Humans..???


I'm Gone..
