50 shades of Grey....crazy clouds!

9/25/12 I took these photos of crazy Undulatus Asperatus clouds.












"Undulatus asperatus (or alternately, asperatus) is a cloud formation, proposed in 2009 as a separate cloud classification by the founder of the Cloud Appreciation Society. If successful it will be the first cloud formation added since cirrus intortus in 1951 to the International Cloud Atlas of the World Meteorological Organization.[2] The name translates approximately as roughened or agitated waves."--Wikipedia


Apparently it is just a crazy looking cloud that really doesn't do much beyond look really groovy! It rained but that was after the cloud show.

Pc Crashes

That moment when you realize your not going to be able to save any of your programs, music, photos, or even your favorites list on your browser.....Yeah, not fun! 

For the past week I've been doing nothing but troubleshooting, restoring, running programs to find out what the heck is wrong with this machine, then thinking I had it fixed!  For it to only crash again and I lose all that I just thought I had restored to start all over with breaks of  crying, screaming, and oh yes, kicking my feet!

Yes, I know I should have backed up everything it IS my fault and I do understand that but who really does stay on top of backing up? Maybe there are those smart insightful individuals who say oh yeah, I'm goin to save all this right now and back up my PC!  IF you are one of those people...I applaud you! I sadly just am not that girl.

Anyhoot, good news is I at least have the bare bones of what I need for my pc. However I spent a good day or so trying to reinstall windows movie maker for youtube to only find out that my pc drivers are not compatible with the new 2012 version.  Now I'm back to the 2011.  What a headache.  I'd not complain about it at all if it was listed somewhere on the download page.  Something that says YOOHOO yeah, you!  The one with the HP!  You can't use this program sorry!

Ok, I'm done ranting!  I'm going to smile, be merry and try to learn to backup my pc.  New year resolution this year, forget the diets...BACKUP instead!


Autumn Leaves

Really?  Another autumn design...why YES of course!  I can't help it, really I can't!  I just love autumn and all things that go with it so much!  The other day was my local flea market and I had fun smelling every candle I came across. One specific lady whom I bought candles from before sold soy candles which I had to have. I loved "Harvest" and  "Pumpkin Crumble" candles.  I mean...how good does that sound?  Not as good as they smell, I promise.  MMM!


I had a lot of fun creating this nail art.  I knew I wanted to create a marbled effect background for the canvas to some falling leaves. I wasn't sure how well it would turn out and I'm happy with it!    In fact it was one of the easiest nail art designs for the non-dominate hand because you just slap on the color to a sponge and tap, tap, tap! Don't ya just love easy? lol

Autumn is almost here!

Hands down, Autumn is my favorite season.  The slight chill to the air that tingles your nose and fingers, the smell of chimneys, home-made apple butter, and apple cider.  The wonderfully perfect skies and yes...those beautiful vibrant fall leaves!  LOVE IT!

I am already inspired by the thought of the colors and so I created an autumn inspired makeup creation thingy-bop.  Yes, thingy-bop IS a technical term or at least it is in MY world. (enter scary manic laughter here MUAHAHAHA) No, it isn't a Halloween look, although by that laugh I would understand if you thought so.  It is a vibrant colored cut crease with browns, oranges, reds, and gold baby yeah!

Do you have a favorite season that you like to draw inspiration from?
