Once a week....

Seems like I am on a roll....blogging about once a week.

This lady only has one kid...one husband...and one house....and I still am a slacker. Think it is a combination of that and being kinda boring...which is fine by me. ;)

So Shorty and I have been wanting a new picture for above our fire place since we moved here over 2 years ago.

I have been to every store under the sun...and have come close to buying something "just because" and not because I loved it.

Well...yesterday...I found what I have always wanted. You might think it is u-g-l-y .... but that is the beauty of art right? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I was birthday shopping for my sister in law in this new trendy little boutique in our town....

They have a pieces of art from a local artist in their shop. I have been in there a dozen times and have always liked his stuff....but nothing that did it for me.

Yesterday this was hanging on the back wall...and now it is hanging on my wall.

His name is Edgar Medina...mostly contemporary stuff...lots of things in Houston and surrounding areas.

Glad I waited...it pays to be patient. Something I am not all that good at being...

Now to find something to go next to it on the mantle.

Hopefully that doesn't take 2 more years.
