rambling rose

What shall I tell you about today? It turns out that 2008 has brought more of a silence on my end, I don't have much to say. I am liking your posts of flickr mosaics of all the crafts completed in 2007, those are nice. I am totally going nuts for Feist's album , Reminder. It's funny, but before I heard this album I was next to her at a restaurant and thought nothing of it. Now I would be all silly and shy and embarrased because, well, she rocks.

Here is a funny dog I saw on Monday. Monday also brought the final print out of the picture book I have illustrated, which was exiting indeed. I will ask my editor (my editor!) if I am allowed to show any of it yet. Tuesday brought a much needed long life saving chat on the phone with my very good friend in Ottawa and today will bring a cozy dinner with my two work friends over yummy Ethiopian food.
Also, some geese and a swan on Lake Ontario, my favorite lake, on Monday as well. We took a day off and went for a walk. I am always amazed at the flotsam and jetsam washed up on the lakeshore. I really just wanted to say flotsam and jetsam, but it is a lot of plastic and a surprising number of balls plus lots of wood. Tommorow is pay day and then comes friday which I always like. Oh, and also on Monday we went to watch "Lars and the Real Girl" which was really sweet and I was pleased. There. I suppose I had a few things to tell you.

that's the magic of everyday life :) And the less you are running around - the more things you notice :)Good things :) Like the dog in a coat and ducks swinging on the waves...

I also got the finished pages of the book to peruse (hug, wave around, shed a tear over...;), and Tania, you have done an AMAZING job... if you can call it a "job", when it's obvious from your illustrations that you had a good time doing them. Can't wait to get my hands on a finished copy!
