Thanks to (a bunch of crap nobody cares about) I have been in PT using arm bikes, lifting weights and working with resistance bands for several months. After all this time I am practically unrecognizable.
Get a load of them guns!
And you thought she was kidding about that stick figure.
The sad part? I look much better now than when I started.

Looking for ways to stay warm? Consider this handmade bear Paw Quilt!
This rustic Bear Paw Quilt would fit in nicely at a cabin by the lake or thrown over your couch at home. The pattern is geometric, and the colors are bold yet earthy. The overall effect of the quilt is of paw prints in snow. On sunny days, the colors look so inviting it is hard not to lie down on them and take a nap.
Handmade Bear Paw Quilt and other fine gifts are available from my shop at L Bowman Studios.

OK, seriously, I have this big bottle of collagen that it’s obvious I can’t take. Any suggestions what I can do with it? Can you compost collagen?

One Thing Each Day (or The Mysterious Case of the Blue Bunny)

I’m not sure you can find it, but there is a toy bunny hidden in this picture.

For inspiration with my One Thing Each Day Challenge, I watched an episode of British Hoarders. What a difference between that and the American version! The American show has drearily sad background music, focus on the mental illness side of the issue and allow only 3 days for total cleanup. In the British show they feature upbeat music while an antiques broker and a home organizer are brought to help the client. The broker looks for possible hidden gems while the organizer teaches the homeowner how to do better. Then they leave for several weeks, and the homeowner is expected to do his or her homework and clean up the mess.
One month has passed, and I am keeping up with my de-cluttering. Despite my happiness over my progress, I’m waiting for the day when I go to look for something that I’ve always had, and it isn’t there. Or at least it isn’t where it usually is. How much time will I waste searching? Maybe Murphy can help me find it.
You can wish all you want, but unless it’s a biscuit we both know it ain’t gonna happen.

Happy Gotcha Day, Perfect Puppy!

I was so scared back then!
Today Murphy got a yak chew for his Gotcha Day. I don’t know if there is a significant amount of sugar in those things, but he has been a bouncy little spaz all evening. (I love it!) This tiny boy was so scared for so long that I didn’t think he would ever come out of his shell.

At least she’s no longer talking about making me sit out there.

Seriously? Do you realize how much time you’ve wasted drawing this stupid thing just to make fun of me for needing a coat?

My Cairn boys were built for winter. In fact they didn’t like any temperature above 55′. Murphy, despite his long, luxurious fur, is a summer guy. The poor little thing nearly froze to death when our temps dropped this week.
Unfortunately, the coat that fits him best is a pink hand-me-down. I keep trying to tell him it is light red, but he insists that even he is not that colorblind. Hmm, maybe Santa will have a new coat on the sleigh for Murphy…
I may be partially colorblind, but I can still smell girl dog on this coat.

Sharks are Cool

I don’t really care what you wear as long as I don’t have to go along.
(So far Murphy hasn’t shown the enthusiasm for water that his brothers had.)
*
While this might seem like an odd topic, I was very nervous about going swimming again after having developed so many allergies/sensitivities. I was concerned that even with shower sandals, if I were walking across a floor where personal care items were draining, they might splash onto my skin and cause a reaction.
My solution is to wear aqua socks while in the shower room and in the pool, only changing out of them once I reach my locker. If you happen to be one of lucky few with MCAS, I wanted to let you know that this might be a choice to help keep safe in a locker room or pool. (Usually this condition doesn’t surface until your 20s, so hopefully high school swim class will already be behind you.) Aqua socks are made of neoprene, so water doesn’t go through them. As a plus, they give extra traction on slippery floors.
And even though I am the only nerd wearing them, I totally rock these aqua socks.

Yeah….if you are a pasty white person, don’t get the gray swim cap.
