answers to questions you didn't ask, meant to ask, wish you asked .....

1. my family has just one pet, a five pound dog, a year and a half old, a maltese .... she's named dixie ... dixie doodle for long ..... when my children are in school, she is lovely company in my art studio .... she frequently has paint on her snout ..... 
2. my toenails have been polished blue every summer for fifteen or so years .... this year i use mod blue with bold glitter as a top coat..... it used to be groovy to be blue, now it is a happy rut .... 

3. hobbies? i am an avid reader .... i always read a book a week .... i sometimes read way more than that .... 

4.  my current favorite tv shows are project runway, design star (ends tomorrow), shear genius, next food network star (ended last week) ..... reality tv has gotten me through the summer ..... 

5. mr.e.beck.artist says it is time to renovate the kitchen .... we are the opposite of the usual couple .... i'm resisting the effort and the cost .... he's pretty gung ho ..... how bad does he want me to get on board? i said i'd like to paint the walls orange ..... and he said that'd be ok .... !!

6. my kids start school in two and a half weeks! i LOVE summer and always go into a tailspin when my kids go back to school .... sigh .... so for now, we'll just keep savoring summer! 

.... can you tell i didn't do art today? what did you do?

now that we have direct tv I too love all the shows you do.
I really had no clue who they should have picked for the next food network star -- did not "love" one contestant.
but on the last show I was sure it would be one of the 2 guys.

Oh! The end of summer break is always so sad. Your dog is too cute. I have an all white dog too, but she is about 10 times bigger!

I can't believe I left those questions off! lol - love most of those same R-TV shows & my favorite toe nail polish is a blue that's so electric you could imagine it on an old camero. :)
