4th Day Wasted?

I've wasted nearly all day looking for something,
which is an old fairy tale book with great illustrations...
because I want a visual of "Puss n' Boots"
to sculpt.
Now I know I have a good imagination, but I keep
picturing the one in Shriek, which leads me to Donkey!
The one I'm after is Old and Victorian.
I decided to give up and wait for it to pop in front of my face,
and go to the next project...can't find that one either!
In my hurried, keep track of this I'm going to need it soon,  I know
I put both books together, in a safe little nook, which most likely
is covered with bolts of fabric! Or under the wrapping paper?
It was time to clean, and you all know I've been putting that off.
I did find this card I bought eons ago,
it's giving me great inspiration for Valentines!
See how I get side-tracked!

I wish I knew a remedy for this affliction...I'd have at least 20 years back that I lost in disorganized ADD. Oh well, it's nice to know I don't suffer alone.
Now just don't tuck that card in a "safe" spot :)

I feel for you...I wasted a few hours yesterday looking for something...I eventually found it...today, cleaning out a couple of cupboards and a drawer. Amazing treasures I totally forgot about.

Have fun...your little books will turn up when you least expect it and really need them!!

Take care,
Hugs, Nancy

I'm afraid, the books are in plain sight!

That card is so beautiful! I cannot wait to see your Puss in Boots - I know he'll be beautiful. :) Hope you find the illustrations you're looking for. And I owe you an email...hopefully coming in the next day or so. :) Theresa

I shouldn't be laughing, but I am! This is so ME. I am looking for about 5 different things right now, including a book, and some buttons I put somewhere so I wouldn't forget where they are - lol! I'm at the point where I just work on something new and hope that things will resurface eventually. :) xox

This must be an occupational hazard. Right now my work table is so cluttered I don't even have room to put the paint plate down. To find something right in front of me, I have to my eyes do this sort of soft focus, mentally searching for the right color lid to stand out among all the tubes, bottles, jars, boxes, etc. etc. etc. Good luck finding the Booted Kitty. :~)

Hi Lisa!

Thank you for stopping by!
So, I had a Google translator here in the page but I try putting something easy now. it's a google toolbar, they make a good translation and it's free, I hope you could use it then.
Once I thought make it in Portuguese and english also but you know... my English is not good I just pretend it's!
Anyway, thank you very much!
