Time sure does fly by.  I think to myself, I'll get that puppet finished and post it tomorrow.  Tomorrow comes and then a week, a month, now MONTHS!  FINALLY I can't put it off any longer.  I have to start performing again.  I'm excited that my first show will be for my son's K1 class.  He is excited, too.  I'll be keeping it simple for the four year olds and perform Eric Carles' "The Very Hungry Caterpillar."  The nice thing is that I had already made the puppets two years ago.  I know, I'm notorious for putting things off.  In my defense, I became rather busy with a new bundle of joy.  I am a new mommy all over again to a little girl. 

STOP RIGHT NOW.....IT'S NOT A BABY!!!  My husband surprised me with a new puppy.  Now I have two furry four legged babies to care for along with Harrison.  Her name is Sing Sing (named because of Singapore where we got her) and she is a very tiny Yorkshire Terrier.  We are having a lot of fun with her and my other dog, Sprout, is loving her as well.  Now that she is 6 months old....wow...again time flies....I can begin to focus on puppetry and art again.  Just now getting used to Harrison being away at school every day.  I miss him terribly but it is nice to be able to get work done before he gets home.

Sorry I haven't been as active as I have liked here on this site.  I hope to change that.  I will be playing around with videos of my puppets now that my husband has taught me how to edit myself.  I am most active on Facebook so I think I might open up a facebook account for my puppet work only.  I just can't seem to figure out how to maintain a website or a blog.  I'm not technical at all when it comes to that but facebook is a blessing for me to post pictures and videos.  I'm still trying to figure out a new name for myself in regards to puppetry.

Hope all is well with everyone.  I miss chatting with you all.

We are here when you need us or want to show off your work!  Congrats on the new addition.... puppies can be soooo much fun.... well and messy.

HA HA HA....you are right about the messy part.  That is the main reason I have been so busy.  My cleaning schedule dramatically increased. :D

Congratulations on your new addition!!  I am a recent new grandma - to three baby guinea pigs! Guinea pigs are easier to train than puppies!!
We will be excited to see video of your performances!! Have fun with "The Very Hungry Caterpillar".  One of my favorite books!
I would love to be your friend on Facebook! (I am not very active but I do check things daily!)

YAY!  Ok.  Once I get my puppet facebook page up, I will let you and everyone else know.  I just have to think of a name.  I LOVE guinea pigs!  HOW FUN!

Wow a fur baby nice.....that will keep you busy and out of trouble for a bit.....lol...congrats.
