Posies and People

I have some neat pictures of flowers, trees, just general landscape and some funny shots, at least to me, of people.  I hope you enjoy them. 

Work is going fine.  We are now open to 9 pm, so I either start at 10:45 to 6:45 or 1 pm to 9.  The later shift is hard because we have to clean up, restock, and the like, but there is less of a crowd.  Partly because folks don't know we are now open to 9.  I do think that the later crowd is not as friendly as the earlier ones.  Perhaps they are tired out.  I know the kids are and tired kids are a problem for everyone.

My buddy, Brenda, was named employee of the month.  She is well liked at her job, and does it well, without much fuss.  She really deserves it and I'm not being biased.

Rose my roomie is great.  We have a lot in common, and enjoy talking with each other, but not being overbearing or pushy.  She has an easy smile and great laugh.  It looks like 5 is the charm.  I was abit worried about my reputation for being a roomie destroyer.

There seems to be movies every night in the lounge these days.  Wayne got a TV and VCR at a pawn shop in Bozeman and is sharing with all who are interested.  I saw Tombstone last night and was not impressed.  Maybe I was just too tired to enjoy it.

Just a neat shot

Finally, Wifi

Just regular bison photos that I can't get to the bottom of this blog.  More further down with the story that makes sense. I'm sitting in a McDonalds in West Yellowstone, Montana, because they have Wifi.  Yeah.  There is still no Wifi at the park.  it was suppose to be fixed over the weekend, but it's not.  Probably when I get back, it will be, but it is nice to get away from  Old Faithful and all the tourist, not to mention the log pine trees.  If I never see another pine tree, it will be ok because that is all I see here. Rose, my roomie, and I went to Mammoth Springs on Friday.  What a great day.  I was anxious to see some Red Dogs, the nickname for baby bison.  We did manage to see them in stages.  At one point, we were tied up in traffic for over 90 minutes because of a Bison jam.  We were told about 300 crossed the road.  That wasn't bad enough, so then a few of them decided to take a n...

Snowy Tuesday

I think that I eliminated a previous post about a Snowy Sunday-where I complained that there was snow on the ground.  Now there is another snow storm, this time leaving about 3".  It doesn't last long, but it's still here.  The temperature was in the single digits the other night. I did have a funny incident today.  Early this morning, I didn't hear my alarm, so my roomie had to wake me.  She was cool about it, actually thought it was funny.  later on in the day, I came home from work and flopped on my bed.  Patrice, my roomie, was taking a shower and an alarm started going off.  I assumed it was her alarm and when she got out of the shower, she would respond to it.  I just pulled my hearing aids and continued to lay around.  She comes out of the bathroom and tells me it is not her alarm, but a fire alarm, only a drill, but we still have to respond to it.  So much for ignoring alarms. Work is still going well.  I was in the...

Art, just mostly my art.

I am trying to be very funny with giving myself the artist title.  I am enjoying this new-found interest of watercolor painting.  I will never be great, but who cares?  I am and will be satisfied with my results.  So there!! lol. We are in week 5 of 6 in watercolor class.  I have learned so much between Jane, who is a wonderful instructor, more like a guiding spirit, and YouTube, that has tons and tons of information.  Knowing how I can get involved in something and leave everything else behind, I force myself to shine my kitchen sink, aka straighten up the kitchen, before I sit and watch and paint.  Not a bad life, I'll tell you. Enjoy the  refrigerator art.  Thanks.... This is one study we did in class, applying some new techniques Just pictures.  The one with the moon is salt added to the wet paint for the sky to give it a neat look Cute snow creature with practice pad colors on the edge I was just messing around...
