I miss him

I miss him since he dumped me. Even though I see how things are better, and I see how I can live without him I still miss him. I miss the man in him I thought he was. He made me laugh. But when I look back at what made me laugh I can't find what was so funny. He treated me well, took me out, but when I look back I see the 30+ pounds I packed on because of it and the raised cholesterol and blood pressure because of it. For all the things I thought were so great I look back now and wonder ...were they?

Here's to getting over and getting on without him.

Charcoal drawing

This is a picture of my friend, Raul, and his little dog, that I'm working on. To see more artwork that I've done please check out my Facebook page, too. Www.facebook.com/artbykatina  

My 18 year old son did not like that I've taken his tablet away and told him he needs to go back to school (he hasn't been in a couple weeks)  so he took a package of zip ties and zip tied everything.

Remember those bees

Remember those bees that had a hive in the upside down plant bucket that got ate by frogs? Well, those bees moved and their hive got so large that I had to call a bee catcher to remove them. Check out these pics.

 Look at the thousands and thousands of bees. Wow.

Some of the side panels had to be removed to allow the bee man access.

He is removing the hive.

There were three 5-gallon buckets and a smaller bucket of hive removed

This is the hive before it is removed

Check out my artwork

This is just a few samples of artwork. Please comment and tell me what you think. Looking to sell and show my artwork.

Sold!! Well, sort of....

I drew this picture and when I showed it to Raul's friend, Ted, he fell in love with it. I gave it to him.  It's a pretty good trade I think. Sort of unequal, though. He's the one that gave me the washer and dryer and king size bed, and several plants.  He gave me things because he was moving out of the huge home and into an apartment. He had a frame, just needs glass and mat to frame it. Awesome:). His son is an artist that has sold many things so maybe this is good luck into finally maybe getting my artwork off the ground, something I'd kind of given up on a while back.
