I am getting help with my Youtube problems from a great photographer here on Wordpress! I may get to figuring out more about my camera today but I may just back away for a while. My studio and my computer have me lassoed too much of the time so I think I will make a break for it and not work so much today. Hope everyone has a great Saturday!

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler
I spend so much time on the computer that Clyde said I need to get a t-shirt that says Computer Slave. I think he is right. I did a lot of work last night so I wouldn't have to do so much today but there is always a computer chore in my future. I can't get ahead but I do sneak away sometimes. It is beautiful outside so I will get out today. Here is a great free clip art joke about those of us that live on a computer. Love it!

I know my camera has some years on it but why can't I put the name and number in Google and get instructions that I can use. I look up something I need help with and when I follow the instructions the selection that I need in the menu is not there. Are cameras updated without changing the precise name of it? I get so frustrated with all this stuff.
I still use Aperture because I finally figured it out and now I am told it is on the way out so if I do have a question it is almost impossible to find the answer. Youtube no longer has the stabilization feature or the color adjustment feature so now my videos will have a slight shake and the colors will be washed out.
It seems to me I should be able to make those adjustments with my camera but I can't figure it out. I will check the instruction manual that I got with the camera and hope I can find the answer there.
Of course, I have to find the manual. ARGH!

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler
We are still swatting mosquitoes. The other night while Spock was trying to destroy a weird creature in a shuttle craft Clyde worked hard to kill a mosquito in our bedroom. I was the scout that kept losing it in the shadows and he was the warrior with the fly swatter.
Finally it landed where I could see it on a door and Clyde got it. We cheered and Clyde went to bed while I did some computer work.
It was going okay when I noticed something in my hair. Of course, it was another mosquito. I lunged at it as it flew away and then disappeared. Later, I was reading a book in the living room and one flew right by me.
I told Clyde the next day it must be a family of them all working together to get us. Yeah, a SUCKY family. I would say argh, but I love puns!
Saw a cute joke about a parent mosquito asking a young mosquito how his first flight went. Great! Everyone was clapping for me!

I am more than halfway through my new website on Wix! What a lot of work. I am one prolific artist and when it is done there will be a little over 400 originals available for purchase. I have been painting for more years then I care to admit and have sold a lot of work.
At this point I have originals and prints in 31 states and 6 countries other than the US. A lot of artists throw away the ones they don't sell but I can't do that. I have worked too hard to discard any of them. They are like children that I am determined to find homes for. Not all of them are framed.
When someone requests one of those I either get them framed or they have them framed. Some of mine are professionally framed but most of them are in good but inexpensive frames that patrons either keep the work in or have the work framed to suit their needs.
Be sure to check out the site so far! The link below the painting below this paragraph will take you there!

Almost the end of September and we are still getting mosquito bites. I don't know how they are getting in but this morning one was hovering above me and I lunged for it. Of course it got away and Clyde spent some time chasing it in the computer room but lost sight of it.
Saw a cute joke about mosquitoes on the net. A vegetarian mosquito is attacking an orange. The caption is This blood orange really sucks.
I don't think there are any vegetarian mosquitoes around here, just big time blood suckers. I wish I had counted all the bites I had gotten the past few summers. I'll bet this summer was a record number.
Wow! Those ones I got on my hand last night really itch.

Well, I am back to my Skyline Beauty series! I really enjoy this series in acrylics. I love the way I can achieve a bunch of layers in one session due to the drying time of the paint. I used to think that was a major disadvantage of acrylics but now I think it is an advantage - at least an advantage for how I paint. I decided on another view of the Memphis TN skyline and am very pleased with the first stage.
I may just tweak it and have one listing but I will see what happens when I get back to it. I was starting with just the center area of the canvas for my Skyline Paintings and then filling it up in the second layer but this time I wanted to cover the whole canvas for the first stage. I will be painting one more Memphis painting and will probably have two layers that are quite different.

Wow! There certainly is a massive effort to convince everyone their teeth should be as white as a piece of tissue paper. Of course, there are lots of products to buy to achieve super white teeth. I don't think teeth are meant to be white as snow. I knew a girl that had teeth so white each one of them looked like a little flashlight. Clyde said maybe people should just put a flashlight in their mouth. Then they wouldn't have to work so hard to get them white.
I think I will just brush and floss. They look okay to me.

We are all glad to see the water go back to the New River! We certainly got by with minimal flooding. I am glad that I am all paid up on my Home Owners Insurance. Funny thing. Well, not that funny but definitely an age thing. I accidentally paid it twice and when I was going over my statement I discovered the error. I realize that last statement is strange to a lot of people, if not most people.
I know I can bank online but all this online stuff makes me nervous. I just don't think it is safe. I was rather surprised that the company cashed both checks. I called about it and the local representative said my computer listing has a refund. Why couldn't they just send back one of the checks? Anyway, I need to be more careful but I am glad it has been a very long time since I made that sort of error. One time I put the amount for my credit card bill on the check for my phone bill. Of course, they issued me a refund.
I know I am not alone in saying this age thing is not fun. I just keep on thinking of the lady in her nineties that performs on a balance beam! Yes, we can keep going for a long time!
I am real pleased to sell some prints of the second stage of Pawleys Island Atmosphere to a great Va patron! This time a box of greeting cards was bought! Don't forget that my prints are on a number of household items, stationary, clothes, and kitchen and computer accessories! All the options are at the right of the listing!

I look forward to watching Star Trek reruns with Clyde. They are on the hour before he goes to bed and I can usually goad him into saying something I can use here.
If Star Trek has 400 crew members, how come we only see a few in the bridge and the captain and senior officers only take a few crewmen with red shirts that usually get killed. Where are the others?
They are below playing badminton.
Love to watch Star Trek with you.
You are just here writing your blog.

We waited for some torrential rains but it looks like it did not happen here. Roanoke had some severe flooding but we just got wet. The people on the coast did not have to evacuate their homes but North Carolina sure got pummeled. Love the beach but definitely do not want to live there!
I made a mistake in my last blog on the Specials. They ended Thursday, not Friday. Senior moment. I looked up a chart that compares Alzheimers symptoms with regular old age symptoms and so far I am still on the right side of the chart. I am reading at night to try keep my mind together and I know playing the piano helps. I really need to get back to reading Spanish novels. You have to stay sharp to keep up a foreign language. I have forgotten some words and some grammar so I had better get back to it before I can only say hola. Our library has next to nothing in Spanish. I guess I need to see what I can get on Interlibrary loan.
Anyway, I am hanging in there and painting away! Here is the final stage of Pawleys Island Atmosphere!

Last time I wrote about the different times that Clyde and I go to bed due to our schedules. He is in bed at 9 so he can get up at 4. I stay up to 11:30 and get up at 7:30. Funny thing. Every night at 9 I have an overwhelming desire to go to sleep and then I start to wake up .
I told Clyde that the reason my body wants to go to sleep at 9 is because we are soul mates. He gagged and said we were more like a ship wreck without a ship.
Ha ha! I love to goad him. Wait, did he really say our marriage is like a ship wreck? Oh well. I asked for it. LOL!

Reports of the coming storm keep changing and it is predicted to be the storm of a lifetime so we are all hunkered down and hoping our homes won't be destroyed. That huge tree right outside the window has me nervous. I hope it does not come crashing down. I have made it this far without a serious tragedy and I hope my good fortune continues.
Someone in India is checking out one of my large paintings. I hope he does purchase it but I will have to get someone to build a wooden crate for me. I wish I could turn back time and make sure the guy that finished our carport knew my crates were not trash. The lumber yard that built them for me closed.
Oh well. Artwork can present a lot of problems but they pale when the weather acts up. We will see soon what this hurricane will do to us. Hoping it is not as strong as predicted.

I used to go to bed at 10:00. I had such a hard time getting to sleep. I don't sleep well so I thought maybe I am one of those people that need to stay up late so I started to go to bed at 11:30. I can't stay up later since I have to get up at 7:30. Clyde sleeps like a rock and goes right to sleep at 9:00 since he has to get up at 4:00. I am so tired all the time and wake up several times at night thinking of crazy dreams, mostly dreams about traveling.
I almost always wake up at 5:00 and 6:00. Once in a while I can't get back to sleep but most of the time I do and I am much more restful when Clyde wakes me up at 7:30. Maybe one of these days when he is retired I will stay up to 1:00 and see if I sleep peacefully to 9:00 or 10:00. I hate to miss the morning hours but I would like to sleep better. Oh well, there are a lot more important things to worry about but I think this sign that is in the public domain is a good one for me.

Wow, my painting progress seems very unimportant in the light of the coming storm! It looks to be quite a devastating one. A local weatherman, Kevin Myatt, is so concerned he said we should pray! Never heard that before from a weatherman.
I am so glad we live in the mountains and on a hill. Hopefully our little home won't be knocked over or flooded. We have one very large tree out front. I hope it doesn't land on our house during the high winds.
Oh well, we are stocking up on extra food and water and I think I WILL pray.

For some reason we do not understand, certain channels on our TV disappear and then others appear. Right now a station that we did not have is on and has Star Trek episodes every day. Even though I have seen most of the episodes multiple times and I am not that big of a fan, I like to watch it with Clyde because he usually has some fun comments. Last night we were watching one with the crew stuck on a planet because the transporter would not work.
They have shuttles. I have seen them many times. Why don't they use them rather than the transporter. Also, if they are stuck, why can't they send a shuttle down?
Oh Clyde. The shuttles were probably sent out and arrested for parking tickets. Then they were towed away by the Klingons.
I think that is as logical as a machine that can take people apart and then reassemble them elsewhere.
Spock probably would not agree with me.
