March is almost gone!!!
HOW did THAT happen?!!

Lots of busyness going on ’round here, so that’s why there’s been less updating.

And a bit of a scare with our dog, Gus.
On Friday night he got up, then fell and later he walked very wobbly with his head tilted. We thought he might have had a stroke, but we took him to the vet and found out that it is a condition called geriatric vestibular disease. Basically he’s got trouble with his balance ..it’s a common occurence in older dogs.
In the last couple of days he’s seemed so much more like his old self.. wagging his tail, barking at Goldie, holding the ball in his mouth, and eating well. He even surprised us by jumping up on the bed! Very thankful he’s going to be OK.

I owe EVERYONE emails. From AGES ago.
I want to do some paintings and go to the beach in the next couple of weeks.
So the email can wait a little longer.

Saw the most luminous double rainbow today while out running errands.
Used my blue-green umbrella.
Had pizzza for dinner.
I’m wearing cozy pink fleece pjs with scarf-wearing reindeer on them.
Wonderful day.
Hope yours has been too!

Much love to all! xxxooo Amy

In other news, there should be a “real” post from me sometime soon. Just have been super busy with various things.If you haven’t recieved any update emails from me in a long time, it’s not that I’ve removed anyone from the list. I just have had problems with the notification system and pretty much abandoned it. Will be fixing it up soon tho. Not enough energy for it tonight, but for my next entry, I’ll notify those on the list through my regular email program.

ps. Kathy, just saw in the tv guide that Wow Wow Wubbzy is on here in the afternoon, too. Yay!

WordPress Themes: Ornamental Black

An elegant new WordPress theme for you!

If you use WordPress for your own site, you can download this theme which I’ve created, based on the default WordPress theme, “Kubrick”. It’s a basic two coloumn layout, but the re-worked graphics provide more of an artistic flair. It’s also compatible with versions 1.5, 2.0 and 2.1 of WordPress. The themes I’m doing are not overly complex, yet the illustrative nature adds a bit of punch to a standard layout.

This classic theme, in shades of black and white, provides an elegant and clean look, with just enough decorative detail to add interest to your blog.

Yes, it’s been pretty quiet on this here blog, but I’ve been busy with some projects. One of which is producing graphics for WordPress themes.

If you use WordPress for your own site, you can download this theme which I’ve created, based on the default WordPress theme, “Kubrick”.

The themes I’m doing are not overly complex, yet the illustrative nature adds a bit of punch to a standard layout.

The first theme I’ve finished is called “Carrots Everywhere!” and features..you guessed it.. carrots, everywhere! (Also a couple of bunny silhouettes in blue.) This theme might appeal to the cook, gardener, animal lover, artist, or child in you… or maybe you’ll like it, just ’cause!
