It's Saturday and I am on day 3 of my sinus infection. At least that is what I think I have. Whatever it's called I don't like it! I'm sitting here lurking around etsy and flickr and watching "It's a Mad Mad World!" I absolutely love movies from the 60s and 70s. They had a certain charm and allowed the watcher to engage their imagination. Today so many movies and television shows for that matter spoon feed everything to the audience. Boring!!!

I would rather be working on my art and watching movies but I just don't have the energy. Yesterday I worked at the antique shop in Paradise. I enjoy going there, too bad I don't get paid for that. The shop has been pretty slow. Lot's of places are pretty slow around here. I believe we are in a recession, at least in Northern California. Next month the city of Paradise will hold it's annual Chocolate Festival. I will share space with other antique dealers from the mall in the store parking lot. I plan to sell my ooak mixed media as well. I think it will fit in because I incorporate vintage objects.

I have been thinking of holding a contest on my blog and give away one of my bird houses. It is still in the development faze. I have not done this before and need to do more research. I am thinking of holding the contest sometime in May. Stay tuned for more details.

I think I will make myself some nice chicken noodle soup...
