Join me in ICAD

So the house seems erie without hearing little paws tip toeing through the house at night. And very cold without a kitty to pet and hold while watching TV at night. So I've decided to join in a challenge to take my mind off Glove for a while.

I'm not usually much of a joiner but I ran across a post on Karen's blog at I am Rushmore (artist and smiler extraordinaire oh and chief salamander catcher) and saw for the first time this ICAD thing. ICAD stands for Index Card A Day and it's been created by Tammy of Daisy Yellow. It's just one index card a day. It's not any real time consuming project and it sounds real laid back and bound to be inspiring to get you creating. It will at least get my creative ju ju going again.

So join in and keep your ju ju goin' too! It starts tomorrow. Just go to Daisy Yellow to see all the details, which there aren't that many rules. She says even if you can't start right away just join in, no catching up required.

So go out and get a couple pack of 3x5 cards and let me know if you're doing it so I can look for your ju ju. 8-)

Test your color vision!

I read this on another person's blog and wanted to test my own hue distinguishing ability with a Color Challenge. I was amazed to have scored a 4, especially since I had barely been awake for a hour! haha  The lower the score the better.

So go test yours, it will take about 10 minutes. They said women are much better at distinguishing the hues than women. Well, yeah! We always notice more things! ;)

go take your test here http://www.xrite.com/custom_page.aspx?PageID=77

Feeling of the day: stressed - I'm not ready for Christmas, it's almost here and I'm not ready!

I'm lovin': that song for Target's Christmas commercial Is It Time Yet? I can't Wait

I am wearing: my purple robe, still ;)

I thought about today: the list of a million things to do and there was ice storm last light and the roads are horrible!

I miss: homegrown summer tomatoes and watermelon!

Best thing I did today: take a color test, made me feel that I can do something pretty good!
