Tip About Your Car Keys
Great Idea!!!PUT YOUR CAR KEYS BESIDE YOUR BED AT NIGHT. Tell your spouse, your children, your neighbors, your parents, your Dr Office, the check out Girl at the market, everyone you run across. Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panicbutton for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies.This tip came from a neighborhood watch coordinator. Next time you come home for the night and you start to put your keys away, think of this: It's a security alarm system that you probably already have and requires no installation. Test it. It will go off from most everywhere inside your house and will keep honking until your battery runs down or until you reset it with the button on the key fob chain. It works if you park in your driveway or garage If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break in your house, odds are the burglar won't stickaround... after a few seconds all the neighbors will be looking out their windows to see who is out there and sure enough the criminal won't want that. And remember to carry your keys while walking to your car in a parking lot. The alarm can work the same way there.....This is something that should really be shared with everyone. Maybe it could save a life or a sexual abuse crime. P.S. I am sending this to everyone I know because I think it is fantastic. Would also be useful for any emergency, such as a heartattack, where you can't reach a phone. My Mom has suggested to my Dad that he carry his car keys with him in case he falls outside and she doesn't hear him. He can activate the car alarm from anywhere in the yard and then she'll know there's a problem. I got this idea from a dear friend in Texas. Thanks Heather

Something new coming














Here is a new White Light Angel from this week's listing and some more design pictures
I took at an Antique store. The flowers are from the park last week.

Tonight I am working on something new. I am back to playing with fabric. I hope to have the new project done and ready to list this Sunday evening. Keep your finger's crossed. New angels too. I haven't had the chance to take any new pictures the last couple days but I will squeeze that in this week too. Hope everyone is having a great week! Blessings, Beth

I finally made it to the park.....









I finally made it to the park today. It is called Goodale Park and it is small but fabulous, as you will see. It is hot outside, around 90 degrees, so I didn't see very many people. I am sure this park is brimming with people normally. I saw one jogger (female), one guy feeding ducks, and one guy working on a trac-hoe. I saw as many wildlife; three ducks and a squirrel. Parking spaces were great today, plenty to pick from.

From the park I went to the North Market. It is a wonderful indoor market with vendors selling all sorts of things. Meat, poultry, fish all ready to take home and cook. Jewelry, pastries, candy, flowers, how can a girl choose? Ah but I knew what I wanted! LUNCH!!! I chose an asparagus salad, vegetable soup, and deviled eggs. What a combo, but delicious! I had never been to the North Market before, but the college kids I work with have been telling me to go that "I would LOVE it". And of course they were right. I had a plan before I got there. Get some lunch and buy a house plant. I DID! Well, I couldn't decide so I bought 4, and had my parking validated! What a quality trip this was!

Enough goofing around, it is time to get busy with the brush! I am painting an Angel (who could guess that) holding a sunflower tonight. I may put her on Ebay tomorrow.

Thanks to Katy and John for the posts, you know you are the ones who got me thinking about this. Love you both! Blessings to all, Beth

The perfect time...





It is Wednesday noontime and I think it is the perfect time to start blogging. I have been wanting to for a while now but never seem to find the time to start. Today is the day. It is hot and cloudy in Columbus today and I have painting to do. My stack of canvas is wondering what in the world I am doing. I usually paint on Wednesday mornings before I go to work. I am off today so I have been lounging at the computer all morning! Oh the life!!! I hope to go to a new park (for me) this afternoon and take some pictures. I will post them if I get there and it isn't raining. As for now I will show you some of the pictures I have from recent small trips... I love to take pictures, as you will soon see. Have a great day.....Beth
