March March March

http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/persona/370343 Thought I would update my blog for March. The picture I added is a desktop wallpaper I made and you can find it at:   http://abstract.desktopnexus.com/wallpaper/599281/ Our snow and blowing is over for a few days but we are supposed to get more.  I have been working so hard on wallpapers and Personas that the weather hasn't bothered me much except when I have to go outside!  So I haven't gone outside much. Thank God my husband gets the wood, mail and paper in. I just enjoy it. My birthday was last week and I got a wonderful surprise in the mail today. A big box and I knew I hadn't ordered anything. What a wonderful surprise to open it and find 2 bottles of the most delicious wine. (It is called Pied Violet from WineShop at Home.) We had been at our daughter's house a week ago on Sunday as her kids were up to visit. (Which is another joy!) They opened this bottle of wine and I was very skeptical as I don't like a

Cold and Blowing

 Blue Enchantment https://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/persona/370597 Wow, long time since I have posted, isn't it? I am getting almost too compulsive about working on designs. Since I don't review anymore I am putting in double time having fun, but it is still work. And I know I should be doing something else, but what's a person to do?

The desktop to match can be found at: http://nature.desktopnexus.com/wallpaper/599838 / It is very cold here today with a northeast wind howling, so I am continually putting wood in the fire but it keeps us warm.

 Four Fantastic Frogs http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/persona/361993   Good morning or afternoon, wherever you are. I am working on spring designs now and some Easter ones. I just love this frog design and hope you all will, too. They have such big, hopeful eyes! And that is what I am doing, hoping for an early spring. The dark, dreary weather has a way of getting me down and kinda sad, which is really dumb, because I have no reason to feel that way. So right now I have my frogs up on my Firefox and every time I look at their silly faces, I want to smile. If you like them I also have a wallpaper at:   http://animals.desktopnexus.com/wallpaper/581177/ They aren't exactly the same, but close enough. I submitted the frog design to iGoogle, too, but so far it hasn't showed up. They kind of pick and choose what they put up, I think. If it gets on, I will let you know. When I checked in to my blog this morning I remembered how I vented last time and I probably shouldn't have s
