My Little Guy Is Such An Artist!!! :-) Gosh I LOVE This Boy!

My little grandson is just the joy of my heart..........I LOVE him so much....well, enough of all that gramma gushing......

Ok, I lied..........I'm going to brag about his artwork, so hang on! My little fella is NOT athletic...but he LOVES art. His mom signed him up for a pottery class....the assignment was to make a clown.......Just look at what he made!!! It's there, on the right side of that beautiful child.......see, I told you I was going to brag! :-)



This is a picture of it before the paint job! Isn't that GREAT??? Do you think he'll be a famous artist? He did win that art contest a few weeks ago, right? Who knows, maybe he'll take care of me with all his $$$$$$$$ in my old age, which is not too far away, I might add.


I'm going to be a bit scarce for the next few days. I am doing a garage sale with my little friend, Jan, so I'll be at her house setting up and HOPEFULLY, selling like crazy. My garage is a scary place and I need to get some of the stuff out of there.

As I've said, I broke my femur in said garage......while I was rounding up stuff for a garage sale. Yeah, well, yesterday........while I was searching for MERCHANDISE....a whole big pile of trays fell on top of my foot..........I really thought I'd broken it. DANG it that hurt! I have a really nasty bruise and it's swollen, but I can move everything so I think I'll live. :-) As though my limping wasn't bad enough already??? Holy COW!

Ok..........girlies! I'm off to price some of my FABULOUS wares...ok, just junque....but I'm hoping for a bankroll by Saturday.

Hugs to all!

Spencer

  5. I LOVE THAT CLOWN! You tell your grandson that is is absolutely OK to not be athletic. Neither of my kids were and they turned out fabuloso! Brandon is a computer programmer and makes big $$$. Adrie is still in college and with a major in American Sign Language and Spanish. I'm sooo proud and that is better than ANY touchdown!

    Be careful girly girl...ouch!

  6. Spencer!!! girl, you need to just sit down and heal before you break something else!!! Almost afraid to visit your blog wondering what you may have done to yourself next!lol...And about that precious grandson of yours, ( an absolute doll by the way)!I live in a family of Artists, and I like to think I know a little about art when I see it...That boy is going to be famous for sure one day! He has got the touch!
    How old is he? Tell him I want his autograph, so I can say I knew him when he was young before his art became untouchable...$$$$. Happy Garage saleing...Be CAREFUL!!! xoxo~Kathy @ Sweet Up-North Mornings...

    okay, did you do something to your femur- which is your leg, or your foot? I am confused... I can't send specific and accurate good wishes to you unless I have specifics. tee hee I'm funny that way. ;-) sue

  13. Hi Spencer! I just recently hurt my right elbow, and my left elbow is not what it used to be after an injury from YEARS ago! I can't know what's best for YOU, and I hate admitting this... but SOMETHING is telling ME I BETTER start taking my CALCIUM supplements!! I don't remember EVER feeling this fragile, and I don't like it!... Anyways, I hope your foot is feeling better.. And Good Luck with the garage sale!
