On my desk right now..........


I am still working with my wife to get decorations put away but we don't have a tight time schedule. We were late getting them up so I am still finding a few to photograph.

This soldier guy is really fun.  I didn't get the mallard ornament hung this year as it just sat next to my computer screen.  The photo in the back is this neat drawing that I bought from one of my wife's close blogger friends who is also an artist from Texas.  Vernita Bridges Hoyt is the artists and I bought her drawing over ebay last year.  Check out her blog right now and you can see her giving a demonstration of a Red Hat painting.

I tend to keep things on my computer screen shelf just to view and enjoy.  I eventually move them off and put up new things.

Nice drawing, and I like the soldier very much.. he has one of those attractive moustaches that I always fancy twirling - in real life of course.

I have been inspired to get into my cache of stuff. Was there yesterday working with watercolors but am not satisfied with the results. But one of these days I will show something. I got a ways to go to equal you guys.
