Let's try this again...

Okay, so.   The computer crisis is averted for now.  That is a good thing.  It's a lovely day again, which is another good thing.  My daffodils are blooming beautifully.  Here, have some flowers:

I just took this picture...didn't even have to mess with the colors in Photoshop 'cause it was perfect just the way it was.   The daffodils are all over the front yard. 

So yeah...trying hard to calm down & be nicer, since it is SO beautiful today & my computer is limping along again in the usual way & yep.  I hate leaving a bitchy post as my "last word".

In other news; in light of my soul-searching entry regarding the value of my work (is it art or is it craft?), the fact that I spent the entire weekend making these barrettes is really very amusing.

Hahahaha!  I crack myself up.  Seriously, next time I get all "Woe!  I am a hack!", please, one of you just say

"BARRETTES"

and gently remind me that I am a whore.  An artistic, crafty whore but a whore nonetheless.  The ginkgo ones are new and cute though...no?

I just plopped 'em up on my Etsy site. 

BECAUSE I CAN DO THAT NOW.  BECAUSE THE PC IS WORKING AGAIN.

If the wind would just stop blowing so hard, I'd go for a nice long bike ride & calm the heck down, & everything would be just FINE.

*le sigh*

EDIT:  The wind, she has stopped!  As if a prayer has been answered.  My own little meteorological miracle.  So I'm off, for a bike ride, maybe two.  Try & stop me!

Heh. There's nothing wrong with turning art into something lucrative. Just because you can repeat the piece, doesn't make it any less art. :)

We're kind of in that lull between the crocuses and the daffodils. Nothing's blooming yet, but plenty of green stuff popping up.

I'm glad you got your computer working again!

I guess so...it's funny though because I make SUCH a fuss about leather being a viable artistic medium & then I go & make barrettes! I make me laugh.
