My limbs feel like feeble branches that were run over and scotch taped back together. My fingers are raisin nubs and my hair has grown so long, the ends blow in the wind, quite like those of a cackling witch. I wake up in the morning and my glowing face has turned into a tired sad case of, showtime. Mr. Lovee and I have been going non-stop getting the gallery ready... I am so sore and tired... But I am not complaining. I am taking the pain as punishment. Punishment for something so greedy, you may never look at me the same. You know how I posted those white and red mushrooms a couple posts ago??? And I was swooning over them, and you all were so happy for me and my shrooms? Well, I failed to admit that, umm, I have others. Yes, the mushroom hoarder of the century. In my room I have these guys...
So, I take my sore and sad punishment, and accept it wholeheartedly, as long as I get to keep the shrooms of course... I was going to avoid blogging as to not bore you with whining about the show and preparations and so on and so forth... But it feels so darn good to whine, how can I not... The one thing I am looking forward to this week is, Halloween in Bloglandia.
I am sadly going to miss one of my favorite days in real life. And, I have to say, I am so terribly sad about it. I feel like Halloween has already passed me by... (I told you this would be pitiful, caccccckle caccckle)
You see, I have not done my yearly carving of the wonderful Halloween pumpkins. No major decorating... All I did was plug a little Halloween pumpkin doo-dad in... Although, he ain't half bad...
My skull has been hanging around all year, so he was ready to go!
And of course, the witches hand is out and partying with candle skulls... Alas, they all waited for the witches party this year, that never was... But hey, I can have a witches party any old day right??
I made you some turtle brownies, just to help you get through this with me... I knew I could get to you through your belly!!! I just have to bake them!! HA!
And then I made you some orange food, carrots and yams, in my cauldron of course...
The only thing is, I think the neighbors are wondering why this cross in a pot is right in front of our front gate (I think some of them were spying on me building it). The fact is, I never did finish that scarecrow, who was going to hang on this wooden structure... Perhaps I should build him on Halloween??? What do you think??
Well, I am off to do more shroom penance... You see, the main reason I am so sore is, I decided in my insaneness, that I wanted to repaint the entire gallery in the same color it was already in, Vanilla Cream. That meant, everything off the walls and then me with a can going up and down a ladder (and then you wonder where the heck I have been??). Now, I have to rehang everything.. I purchased 49 frames today (I am making poster size canvas prints!!). Due to the frames, I have no more coins in my piggy bank. I just handed the guy my entire piggy bank. It cost the actual ceramic pig too...Sheesh...
I am feeling the freshness of white these days so I ironed this white tablecloth today... I think I am going to use it. I am not in a black tablecloth mood when it comes to the gallery/shop right now...
OH MY!!! Before I leave I almost forgot to tell you... Sweetie-Pie himself is one of a few featured Etsian prints (animal prints) in Domino Magazine online.

Okay I really am off to do shroom penance now... Oh and, thank Corey and Lou if my blog is loading faster for you!
