Picture Perfect


It's my birthday! And there were presents including,in the middle, wearing a quilted blanket, the new sheep that joined my collection today, a gift from Younger Son.

Also new is a taleidoscope, a tube lined with mirrors, using a clear marble as a lens, creating images from the real world, like those a kaleidoscope does with bits and pieces. This one is encased in an exotic wood tube and has its own stand. I had asked for one, thinking I would use it to help with color selection. (It will work well for that, too.) However, I find it fascinating to just look through. Patterns in the rug, the blinds on the window, my stash all take on new dimensions.

I can vaguely remember visions like these. But then, I stoped drinking. . .

The Origami mittens are finished (I wish I could say the same for this stupid purple sock!) We spent a couple hours getting the camera to interface with the computer. There will be more photos. Just not today.

Aaaahhhh!!! I didn't know it was your birthday! GAH! I feel terrible. YOU send ME a big box o' goodness on YOUR birthday. I'm surprised you didn't send me a cake as well *g*. Rest assured that surprisey-things will be imminent. I hope you had a good one.
 
I had a very good one. Especially now that the photo thing is working here.
