Quote of the Day: "Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months"
Oscar Wilde (1854-1910) Irish dramatist, novelist, & poet
Don't Adjust your screen! Those are bullet holes!
Some of you are aware that I was having some serious blog problems yesterday. I am happy to say "Problem solved ..... FOR NOW!" Yesterday I felt like the gent who came downstairs to get his morning cup of wake-up juice and stubbed his toe on something on entering the kitchen. While hoping around on one foot and holding the other he finds the counter top to steady himself. He straightens up and promptly bangs his head on an open cabinet door. The automatic reaction to this is to duck at which point he promptly bangs his head on the counter top. Stunned, he backs turn and walks directly into the kitchen door jamb, falls to the floor. There he sits, throbbing toe, a goose egg on the top of his head, A red mark on his forehead and a red line down his face from walking into the door jamb wondering what he came downstairs for. Oh Yeah! A cup of coffee.
Before I explain I would like to thank those of you who welcomed me to the wonderful world of blogging. Personally I think there is a little red guy with cloven feet and horns just waiting to make life miserable for any unsuspecting blogger out there. My day of blogging started out normal enough. I thought that in two or so hours I would have another nice blog to share and I could get some other things done. Wrong, wrong wrong!
It all started when I notice that the words I typed were doing funky things like part of a word on one line and the rest on the next line. I thought "Oh well I'll fix that after I get most of the post finished." After I got two of the pictures inserted, sized and positioned I started to type the next paragraph. I noticed when I got to the end it aligned to center. Highlighted the paragraph, hit the alignment button and chose the align left. NOTHING. Hmmm! Strange. Hit the undo button and the picture disappears above the paragraph. I reinsert the photo.
Meanwhile my better half says "Your post for today is doing strange things." I told her "How can that be I haven't posted it yet." We go to her room and sure enough there it is in all of its messed up glory. Some of the lines are going so far off screen the neighbors could read it from their yard. Scrolling sideways the line of text is so long the post disappears off the left side of the screen. Is it supposed to do that?
Back to my room. The Scotts-Irish in me is bricking up and the Cherokee in me is saying "Me get bow and arrows. Need war paint too." Problem is I think the arrows were bent and the bowstring was broken. Tried several things three or four times to no avail. In the process of trying different things some of you may have noticed the post appearing and disappearing like a broken traffic light. That was me Publishing and reverting back to draft. At one point I thought "I wonder if it will correct if I hit the undo button several times." Once again the result was the image disappeared. But I didn't do anything with the image. Hit undo again. Now the image is in another spot. hit undo again. Nothing. Scroll to the top of the blog and guess what? There is the picture. I save the mess, log off and go make supper. Yeah I do the cooking!
I tell the wife I'm taking a bottle of wine into the room with me when I go back. I did have my usual glass (JUST ONE) of wine with my meal. Cherokee did war dance before returning to room. Loaded gun with silver bullet. Hit post delete button. did more war dance. Finish post. UM, Good. Fix um good. Cherokee put bullet holes in screen as warning to little red thing. you not win. Me win.
If anyone is still here, boy that felt good. Her is a picture or two. If your lines are going off the right side of the screen the Cherokee will fix it.

These are some of my favorite child images. So cute and adorable. The Copic coloring is relatively easy too.
This is the card made from the above image. Nice!
I don't know if a card was made using this image. There have been so many that I am unable to keep track.
If you stuck with me this far I will not bore you any further. This was a vvery different kind of post. Thanks for visiting and hope you return soon. LOVE THE DETAIL.
