  • Friday’s Stuff

    Snap the Whip   ~ Winslow Homer
    Winslow Homer is a wonderful go-to artist for Fine Art Friday.

    It is better to keep quiet and be real,
    than to chatter and be unreal.
    It is a good thing to teach if, that is,
    the teacher practices what he preaches.

    ~  Ignatius of Antioch
    (ouch!)

    Magistra’s Dictionary:

    i • ro • ny:  deer (pl) frolicking in our front yard
    while men pack for hunting trip this weekend.

    con • viv • i • al • i • ty: a girlfriend weekend with Mel

    I’m headed to Boise to collect her from the airport. 
    And shop. And talk.  But our chatter will be *real*. <grin>
    Y’all have a great weekend. 
    (In heaven I’m going to be a southern girl.)

  • Oh, f.u.n.!!   Have a wonderful time :)

  • Have a great time! I love the painting.

  • The deer win the Bark Award for making me laugh out loud.

  • This is very funny .

    I have been putting together new notebooks for my children this week. I use white notebooks with clear plastic to slip in a picture for them (mounted on “pretty” paper). For two of my children I picked a Winslow Homer painting: “Breezing Up” for my son and “The Butterfly Girl” for my daughter. We’ve got to stop meeting this way!

  • Have a wondeful weekend with your friend!

  • And in heaven, Carol Smutz is going to ask the Father for hair like our daughter Sarah’s hair… She’s a southern girl and she would say it like this, “Hohney, When I get to heaven, I’m gonna ask God for hayer just laike yorrs!”
