What I did with my Non Blogging Time
















First, I went to Santa Fe, to see my beautiful friend Becky (top photo) who gave we permission to post her photo and I also visited my good non blogging friend K and went to Home Depot for Venetian plaster for my Winter supply. Becky and I went to some galleries and saw some awesome art. Always an inspiration.
I also made some art of my own while on my break, this box is drying and then has to be fired, glazed and fired again, the lid already cracked and I have made another since this photo was taken. Also working on paintings for my ETSY site, soon to be shared.
Oh, and I took photos. Fall is here and it is a beautiful, stunning time in Taos.
I have a few more photos to show you, but will save them for Animal Wednesday.
I read and facebooked (is that a word?) and watched DVDs. Saw friends, had fun.
I finished "Lost" and actually cried, I admit it, I did. I have started another JJ Abrams series "Fringe" It took me a while to warm up to it and I don't love it like "Lost", but I am starting to adore it. One thing about Abram's shows I really like is that the women in them are smart and strong.
I am blogging again, but have decided to do less of it, so if I don't visit as often as I should, I am sorry, I still love you, but it seems I need more time for other things, I will be lurking, but not always leaving a comment. XOXO

Hi Annie,
How weird it was to see ME in my own feed reader! I hope I didn't scare away any of your readers, LOL! I should have put my sunglasses on! Your new box is looking great~ Can't wait to see how you glaze it! You got a lot more reds in your fall colors~ the mountains look glorious! Most of our leaves have blown away today... a blustery day in Santa Fe!
Enjoy the rest of the week, Annie~ good to see you again!
:)

I love all these photos! And lurk away, my friend. :) There is never enough time to do the things we love to do. Sometimes, you have to dig your heels in and take it. :) Happy arting (new word!). xoxo! Pam

WOW Annie! I'm so glad you had such a special day in Santa Fe! Becky is gorgeous, your clay box is absolutely stunning, and the scenery! Well, you know how I feel about New Mexico. WOW!

I'm so glad you're enjoying "Fringe." My favorite character is Walter, poor confused old Walter. Do you have a favorite?
:0)
Enjoy your time away from blogging, sweetie! There's a big world out there, with lots of interesting things to see and do.

Love and hugs,
xoxoxo

The only thing better than spending time with friends is getting a day to yourself when you need it. I treasure those days where I take off and do nature things or art walks all by myself!
I'd be lost without my girlfriends though, and hubby ;)

beautiful photos Annie! I'm glad you're making new art!

xo♥

Good to see you again Annie
Lovely pictures ! Your friend is beautiful!
Did you make that white box? GORGEOUS! But did that lid crack or did I just mix up things.....
Well take care and find your balance in blogging, it should stay fun


Have a nice day dear ♥

Mermaid-Thank you darling. xoxo

Oh, the scenery inspiring and the box? It just might be my favoritist thing you have done--truly gallery worthy and in fact before I read the text, I thought it was a piece you had your eye on in one of the galleries you visited

Hia Annie looks like you had a lovely break. We watch Fringe too but aren't liking the storyline with the switched Olivias at the moment. We are persevering though as the individual puzzles per episode are entertaining.
