Lavendar, bulls, bullsh** and butts
You know how I told you recently about my garden, and the sad lack of attention it gets? Well apparently, not everyone is as disinterested as me… As the rain came down yesterday morning, TLW yelled that we had “BULLS…
Punk by Bush Babe
Ree had a pic of one of her handsome sons (she refers to her kids as ‘punks’) today, and did some ‘work’ on it. She asked for other’s ideas… this is my very quick effort. Here is her SOOC (straight…
