Cockeyed Optimist

Guys? Are you there? I hear voices. Maybe now they'll match her weird, Bells palsied face.

I don’t see what you’re talking about. I feel fine.

Hey, don’t forget me! I broke too.

And I’m only right twice a day now!

These are a few of my busted up things! (Hmm, I can see why they went with the other version in the musical.)

These are only a few of the things that broke. If you added everything up, October was quite an expensive month. Uh oh Murphy, looks like a skinny Christmas this year!

As long as I get some biscuits, I’ll be happy.

Bear Paw Quilt

Looking for ways to stay warm as the days cool down? Consider this rustic Bear Paw Quilt!

This handsome 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 snowy 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.

Oh geez, what happened to you? Mommy seems to think I'm nearsighted because I bark and growl at her every time I see her in a hat.

I can’t believe you think I might be nearsighted.

What have I ever done to give you that impression?

Actually, a number of people have commented that they think Murphy might not have perfect vision. Starvation can affect the eyes, so it is possible. To me it is funny that he never seems to recognize me in a hat even though I wear them all the time.

I dunno…I think my glasses look good on him!

Today Dream Our World went on sale at a museum!  The boys finally got their paw in the door.  Just doing a little celebrating.

Today is also Day 6 of me going without my glasses.  I’ve got to say that so far I like it.  That may change after a while as I find that I can’t use the computer or drive.

I never gave much thought to eyeglass frames, but there are a lot of choices out there.  There a different metals, organic/inorganic acetates, wood, bone, horn, shell and bamboo.  There are even companies that will custom craft your frames based on measurements you take of your face with your phone.

While it seems interesting to have eyeglass frames custom made in Europe, I  worry what would happen if I ever needed a repair or a new prescription.  I started going to an optician years ago so that I could have same-day service rather than having to wait 2 weeks for my frames to be sent to a lab.  How much worse it would be if the company were overseas.

So far, I have made no frame decisions but continue doing my eye exercises every day and avoid a lot of computer work.  Toby likes it because we are spending more time outside.  I enjoy looking at trees and buildings and hillsides to challenge myself as to how much detail I can see.

Don't worry, Mom. I'll help.

Maybe soon you won’t be tripping over me when we go out, Batty?
