Posted on May 28, 2009 by K

Not really. Scrap life-ing. Bits and pieces out of my image library. Not showing off my technique, just cool little moments. Grandson Young moms doing lunch in the park.  They let me stay. Old dog.  Losing his hearing.  But never … Continue reading →

Oh, I wish, I wish, I wish

Posted on May 7, 2009 by K

Okay, so tomorrow is my birthday.  And I’ll be really, really old.  And usually, I don’t let people get me stuff.  I have everything I could ever dream of.  Except maybe a basement.  But there is something I do want … Continue reading →

Three gray old men walking

Posted on May 7, 2009 by K

Posted on April 20, 2009 by K

Easter

Posted on April 16, 2009 by K
