Beauty Fleeting

From Beauty to Beast in 48 hours. We're guessing this is an allergic reaction.
I'm on meds and hoping for relief.
The Purple Tongue is a Medicine to treat the inside of my mouth.
Found the irony too funny not to share tho.

Make the Time

I'm sure I could have found something to have been stressed about while waiting for the doctor. But I chose to charish this time with my kids. Take a few silly pictures and make them remember I do have time for them. Life is not always so serious. And I DO have time for fun. They didn't want to be sitting there as much as I didn't want to be there either, but hey like everything else in life, "you have to make the best of it". And now I will always have this reminder.
Hold onto those you love, don't let anger or worry rob you of special moments like these.

Ugly Art Recycled

GW Frame        4$
Box of Shell     1$
Paint on Hand
-----------------------
Total                $5

I  was so excited to find the shells. Been wanting to do this project for some time.
Shells finally made it into my path.
I have enough to do 5 more frame and I just might.
They are so pretty but I really don't know where they are going to call home.
