Household Chores Interfere
Today the posts will be pretty sparse, as I do have household chores to catch up on. I did, however do something really cool this morning. It was so cool that I posted it twice. Once on my personal blog, Hey It’s Me, and again over at Alternative Therapies.
Here are the links (redundant, I know):
When I get tired of the housework, and if I don’t get caught up in making art, or organizing a huge mess of stuff in my art room, I’ll probably be back to post some more. But if not, then, please enjoy my offering for today!

Feeling Discouraged
I really shouldn’t ever look at my stat counter reports because it always discourages me, especially when I know I have uploaded some really cool stuff, and nobody sees it. And then when page views go down… well… sigh…
And I keep telling myself that it really doesn’t matter, because I enjoy my website, I like how it challenges me to learn about all kinds of different stuff, and it gives me an easy way to save and share ideas and insights with family and friends.
Plus, it’s a complicated site, and not really in sync with the way things are normally done, so there’s that….
Also, there’s the Google thing. Google pretty much determines who sees what, and what gets seen when a person does a search. Their algorithms are tweaked to benefit Google’s bank account. And my website doesn’t do Google any financial favors. We are ad free. So there’s that!
So that’s my rant for the day. And now on to the posting of stuff that I have uploaded today:
- Some Cute Dog Quotes
- Try This Hawaiian Healing Technique
- 20 Ways To Maintain A Healthy Level Of Insanity
- Camouflaged !!
- I Carry You
- Brazilian Body Art Festival Pics
- Street Art Graffiti
- New Words For The Workplace
- A Hierarchy of Needs
- Fahrenheit vs Celsius vs Kelvin
- Hothooka Caunotka ~ Sign Of Purification
- Things I Remember
This is a hot mess of a list. Most of the posts are random stuff that I wanted to clear out of folders because I am tired of looking at them. They can be found at More Cool Pictures, and Totally Random.
The Hawaiian Healing Technique is pretty interesting if you have never heard of Ho’oponopono. The 20 Ways To Maintain A Healthy Level Of Insanity is a fun read. I might even try a couple of the things on the list. The Sign Of Purification post is a Native American Prophecy which you might find interesting.
Things I Remember really got to me. It’s what I remember about my childhood, and brought up a lot of old emotions. So, now I’m feeling done with the internet and ready for a some fresh air and a nap… or maybe just a nap.
I’m Back!
So, I’m back from a short family vacation, and I just now realized that it’s not only a solar eclipse today, it’s also World UFO Day, so how fun is that? This is what I have posted so far… having way too much fun with the UFO stuff!
Road Trip!
I will be heading out on a family weekend for the next couple of days, so there won’t be anything new posted on the website until I get back. I hope you have been enjoying these daily updates as much as I have been enjoying posting them! See you soon!
Onward We Go
This is the part of the week where I am really challenged because I am too busy with my “real” job and my “real” life to get much stuff posted, and at the same time I am getting more and more ideas… That being said, the one and only post I have uploaded today is a lot of fun!
I am not sure if I will get much more posted later on when I get home from work. If I do, I’ll add it here, and if I don’t … well … go check out my “Questions For God” post.
Today I have for you…
Today I have for you a Giraffe and a Flower! LOL. Plus a few new posts. Not much right now, but I am sure there will be more to come late today after I get home from my “real” job.
A Slow Start
I’m getting off to a slow start today. Found something nice and simple to post, and then spent a couple of hours trying to find the exact right image to illustrate it with. Image searches are fun and fraught with dangerous interludes of getting way off track and distracted by pretty things, cool art, and interesting oddities. So… like I said, a slow start.
Anyway, this is what I have so far today:
Bits and Pieces
I have a little bit of time today, so I have been working behind the scenes on the Prosperity Project. Here’s what I will be sharing later on as the Here Comes The Sun project progresses:
Then I went looking for a recipe my daughter sent me back in January:
And then, somehow, I found myself looking at emails she had forwarded to me way back in 2006. So I decided to share them:
Which lead to various image searches and so there is this (which might be the best of the bunch):
My Latest Distraction
It’s been a couple of days since I posted anything new here at shirleytwofeathers.com, and that’s because I have been busy with another… yes another… new project. My daughter wanted me to see if I could figure out how to put my art on fabric so that she could have custom dog collars made.
So, I found a website that makes custom fabric, wallpaper, and wrapping paper out of the designs you upload. And then I started uploading… so that’s where I’ve been hanging out this weekend.
The downside to the website is that before you can have anything for sale to the general public, you have to actually buy a sample. And that’s fine, because the whole point was to buy samples and make a bunch of cool dog collars.
But, of course now I have some pretty nifty potential wallpapers that I really want to paper a room with… which is really pricey even if it’s a small room… and which room? I need a house with 100 little rooms… LOL… and a bunch of money to spend on them.
So, here are a handful of images that I think will link directly to Spoonflower, in case anyone is interested.
I think it's time to go shopping... maybe even buy some really cool stuff at my online shops!!
