And I have several shows upcoming to get ready for. The first on is the Funny Business Community Art Show at the 1912 Center next week. I am almost done with my piece: Will be adding some cut balloons and flowers and other odds and ends to it and get it mounted and ready to hang this weekend. The opening reception to be held on Friday, February 6, 2015 from 5 to 7 p.m at the 1912 Center on 3rd St in Moscow.. Will be picking up my photo print for the Black & White project from Costco this weekend. I will get that matted and mounted in the next month. That show is in March. I am almost done with my Power of 3 piece, which will show in April. Sold another pin the other day, this one was a computer heat sink and should be arriving in Arizona in the next day or two. Slowly, but surely building up my Etsy sales.

Okay, big changes happening

I am working on the new website under my Purple Ducky Domain, purple-ducky.com where I will be bringing all my various websites and places I am under one roof. So I took the URL off this blog and set up blog.purple-ducky.com as the re-direct for it. Not sure why it didn't work, I did it exactly the way I did it originally, but things got weird. I will figure it out later. So I picked up WordPress thru my host and have been puttering along, so far so good, tho there are some hiccups here and there that I am trying to work out. One being I had added a plugin that doesn't work with my version of WordPress and now when I attempt to delete it it disappears all the stuff on my pages. GRRRRRRR! Fairly decent weekend, did a couple nights coyote watch up the hill at the neighbor's house. The 'yotes are coming in too close to the house and scaring them. So the plan is to make lots of noise with a rifle to convince them they don't want to come too close for fear of someth

SIGH!

A sad start of the new school season. Classes start back tomorrow and this last Saturday we had a tragedy in our little town. A guy shot and killed his mom, his landlord and a friend of his mom. He critically wounded someone who was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was caught north of Colfax after a chase and will be extradited back to Moscow. As of yet there is no hint of a motive. All 3 people were very well connected with the community of the town and campus in one way or another. They will be greatly missed.

What I have been up to in the new year

Lots of puttering about the house, I had a 10 day vacation where I slept a lot when I wasn't puttering. Managed to do a little bit of decluttering of a drawer or two. In my search to make the pennies rain from Heaven into my bank account I have signed up with a few sites that will (hopefully) earn some money from writing. The first site is Persona Paper, which in a growth boom thanks to an apparent melt down of the site Bubblenews and people migrating from there. If anyone is interested in signing up and using this particular platform, follow this link . It is a referral link that gives me coins for people who successfully sign up and publishes at least 1 article. I am also checking out Wikinut and have signed up with the new social network tsū . Been having fun on tsu, tho there is some growing pains as they are only a couple of months old. Slowly making connections there and earning a few pennies a day. With these new ventures I may re-think all my blogs, at least the several
