Saturday

Happy Saturday!

Well,

I hope you're having a happy Saturday:)

Yesterday, the gas company stopped by to let us know

we needed to evacuate because of a leak

they turned off our gas

pretended to work for an hour

then left and didn't return.

We're back in our house

 but

we don't have hot water

and the stove doesn't work.

they're closed today...

and tomorrow...

and Monday. 

 Well, I can't use the stove

but tomorrow is September!!!

So I'm not going to let it get to me.

                                                                              

 I love the way the sky looks this time of year don't you?

It takes on a deeper hue, the clouds get brighter and fluffier.

You know you're one day closer to 

weather that's fit for humans.(and Halloween!)

& If you're lucky enough to get some rain, it's quite a show.

                                                                  

We had a bit in the last week or so

 I've mentioned how inspired I get when it rains right?

Apparently so does Helena.

we made some tissue paper lanterns last night.

All you need is decoupage glue, tissue paper, and a jar.

.

I love these pickles!!

I have so many empty jars!

paint the jar with the glue

apply the tissue paper

add another coat of glue on top.

 Let it dry.

 add a tea light and turn off the lights....

 easy peasy!

I also made a new mixed media painting.

it's called

'Time for a Cupcake Party'

Again, I hope your day is happy

 but if it's not....

I hope you can

find a way to get it there

even if it's just stopping what you're doing

and looking up at the sky:)
