Who am I?

For those who are wondering who "big black stinky dog" is. This is Zoe my upstairs neighbors' dog. She has a little problem with chasing cat's. Unfortunately she dose not think before taking out after them. Some times they are not the kind of cat she is safe in chasing. She was spared three times this last summer. 
We managed to clean her up two of those time's, but the last time it got her in the face and there was no way of cleaning up her face with tomato juice. It was a very stinky summer. That was when she started to be referred  to as "big black stinky do" by my self. She is a very sweet do and always so glad to see any one who will look her way. 

As to myself, I have been keeping busy with some new projects.  I had been a bit down for about two and a half years and stopped at my local art store to see what was new. I found a flier for their new classes and there were three that were free, Yes that is right Free  Yes you have read it right.  I new I had to take advantage of them. 
Altered Book, Art Journaling, and Stamp club.  I am no longer feeling down and have been very busy learning new techniques and all about  all the new products out there (it had been years since I had visited the art store). I have also been looking over all the wonderful videos of other peoples work. Now I have to have cards for each day as to what needs to be done or I use all my time playing. There is nothing wrong with playing but not at the expense of the rest of my life. And speaking of needing to take care of the other things. I had best get to it. Oh ya here is one of my pages form Altered Books. I so not do the covers until I get done with it as the covers he beat up so bad from use. Learned that one the hard way. This is the inside of the front cover of one of them. I can not work on just one thing at a time. I have two Altered books going and on Art Journal and some ATCs in the works at this time

 AS I was saying earlier, I need to get some work done around here and best get to it. Will be back later.
