This ran a few weeks later in the Guelph Mercury as well. It was a neato trip for Tryg and I as he visited a local school in St. Ann’s and we got to stay with a fantastic local and gourmand, Pam.

Its 11:05. Much work to be done, but then I started reading about Neil Young’s life and that of his two boys. Wow. What a dark cloud. His own health history– polio, epilepsy, brain aneurism, first wife died; one son with cerebral palsy; another a quadriplegic. How does one carry on? But he certainly does.

Well, much work to be done.

Also looking at this work by friend Jenn: http://jennenorton.blogspot.com/

Now she is productive. And awfully interesting. And funny.

     I Like this quote I dislike this quote

It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look. To affect the quality of the day – that is the highest of arts. - Henry David Thoreau

The Snowmen have arrived.

Guelph Tribune Article

This is the blog for me, Dawn Matheson. I live in Guelph, Ontario, Canada.

Basically, I intend to discuss my projects, past and present, plus other people’s projects and things in general that come into the light.

Jim, my neighbour, who I met through my cat, is the web designer. I’ll tell the cat story soon. It is a goody. But a sad goody as kitty is no more. 

Above I posted a link to my latest project called Project: Snowman. I’ve decided to premise all my project titles from here on in with: Project colon. Nice and clear. Project: Snowman is explained in the little article above… better than I can explain it here.

I came up with Project: Lucy today for NuitBlanche. Let’s hope it lives. 

Need to have a bath now, but this hasn’t been too bad.

Now to figure out how to post photos. Jim? Meow?

The Snowmen are coming!
