Medical Mystery

I've been struggling with whether or not I should make this post. This blog is mainly about the latest on my artistic output. I prefer to keep the negative at bay. But in my long absence I feel it only fair to let my followers know just what's been going on with me.

I am not well. I've been battling with an illness that so far has the doctors stumped. Life has been dominated by countless doctors' appointments and tests. I have little energy and am in great pain most of the day. It keeps me away from the things I love most. It keeps me away from my passion of creating. I haven't stepped foot in the studio in months.

So I will try to attempt at finishing something new when I can, but if things continue this way, my offerings this year will be precious few. I only hope that isn't the case.

Thank you to each and every one of you for continuing to follow and support me, it means so very much to me! Be well.

Happy Holidays!!

From Our Home to Yours!

With Warmest Wishes

To You And Yours!

The Munsters

NBC plans to redo The Munsters.

It'll be a drama, not a comedy like the 1960's series I absolutely adored growing up. Not sure how I feel about this; I really don't think they can outdo the original. But, I will of course be watching, for better or for worse.

I have to admit, I'm on the edge of my sofa cushion when anything with a paranormal/occult/hell-anything-spookyish theme premieres on the tube. Comfy lounge pants - check. Bowl of snackage - check. Wide-eyed, gleeful anticipation - check.

Please NBC, just do this sacred monstrous sitcom justice.

Oh, Woe Is Me

The last of the Halloween decorations have been packed away & are ready to be brought down to the dungeon. Now is when the foul funk sets in. The winter doldrums will soon have me firmly within its clutches - oh the impending doom of what the season brings...the cold...the constant grayness...the lack of life...the nothingness.

Yeah old man winter, that's what you are to me.

* raspberries to you sir, long, noisy, wet raspberries! *

All Bow to the Pumpkin Master

Happy Halloween To All You Boils & Ghouls!

Wicked Wednesday Unveiling VIII

There's only 12 days left 'til Halloween and all the preparations are finally finished except for the pumpkin carving, which will be done this weekend (I have 9 pumpkins to sacrifice!). This is the last creepy creation being offered before the big day, as I'm going out of town to spend some time with my daughter engaging in some frightfully fun festivities in her area.

This week's offering is a creepy cool Unwelcome sign to warn all those who visit your haunt this season! Features etched-in wording and 'cracks' as well as a skull cabachon and 2 gargoyles! I painted the entire piece to give it the look of stone and provided hardware on back for easy hanging. Measures an impressive 30" across!

The Walking Dead

Although I'm not much of a television zombie, hehe, I've been anxiously awaiting the return of this series since the end of season 1. The Walking Dead premieres on AMC this Sunday at 8pm CST. For sneak peek photos, an ultimate fan trivia game, a walking dead avatar creator and other creepy cool fun of the undead, check out their official site here.

Now where'd I put that survival guide........

Wicked Wednesday VII

So sorry for the delay in this week's unveiling! I've been busy busy creating the last minute finishes for our yard haunt and the day just completely got away from me!! There's only 19 days left 'til the frightful festivies and the crunch is on both personally and professionally! And I'm loving every minute of it ;) But, not to disappoint, this week's offering is now available on ETSY!

*whew, think I need to put my feet up and sip on a pumpkin latte to decompress a bit
