Don't protest if you can't spell


It makes you look like the idiots you are. 

And, those of you who aren't even Canadians....bugger off home.   

We've got enough problems of our own.






And, now, our stupid Prime Minister has said we will have net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050... hahahaha.........I sure hope nobody ever has to fart in that year....

... and, what about all those cows? .......

""In a 2006 United Nations' Food and Agricultural Organization report, it claims that the livestock sector, most of which are cows, "generates more greenhouse gas emissions as measured in CO2 equivalent – 18 percent – than transport." According to a Danish study, the average cow produces enough methane per year to do the same greenhouse damage as four tons of carbon dioxide. So is this significantly contributing to global warming?""

Get a grip on reality folks..... we still have to live, breathe, eat and oh, yeh... fart... and drive cars, fly in planes and sail on ships and wear clothes and every single one of us carries a phone .. except me...   last of the luddites.... eat food that is more and more frequently packaged in plastics produced in plastic greenhouses and ...well, the list goes on and on. ad nauseam and ad infinitum... We obviously can't survive without anything that isn't partly oil and gas product or derivatives....

Periwinkle

This is Peri.... short for Periwinkle.  Because of the colour of her outfit mostly... and, because I really like the sound of the word.  Mom used to tell us about 'winkles' when she talked about English things.  She was from there, but us kids had never been....

Imagine being able to collect and eat winkles from the nearby beaches... what fun that would be if a person liked to eat 'shell-y' kinds of things.

Anyway... I have not been doing much blogging...and, not doing anything crafty at all.  I'm having real problems with my eyes and can't see much up close to do anything of any importance anymore.  Even reading is a bust.  I have no idea if it is permanent...but I'm working on it.... at some point I'll need cataract surgery, but first must get the pressure readings from the glaucoma under control.  Bummer.

So, thought I would show you a paper clay doll I did back in the day... as I was moving dolls in the curio last weekend when we changed things around in the hobby room/ office/music room....

Here she is .. paper clay over fabric and the eyes are acrylic paint as are the lips... face colour too...

pretty blue eyes...
