Shower Chair

This shower chair fits in a standard bathtub. It costs about $95 Canadian. I believe this is the one my sister and her husband settled upon getting for my mother's use. They were going to measure their bathtub to ensure it fits as we were told these kinds of products cannot be returned for hygienic reasons. At this store, there is a 20% seniors discount on Thursdays, and my mom doesn't have to be present, you just have to say it is for a senior.  A hand shower faucet has also been recommended.

Creative Tuesdays - Pattern

Welcome to Michael's Creative Tuesdays!  The current theme is 'Pattern'.  I took this bunch of photos on a walk and used them as inspiration for my pattern above, done in acrylic on textured yellow cardstock (8 1/2" x 11").  It was fun to do, stretching my creativity at the same time!

Yummy

One of my sisters and my sister-in-law were on a recent European cruise and sent us these yummy photos:

Sunday Sketches - Silver Shoes

Welcome to Sunday Sketches from England! I saw these silver shoes in a shopping catalogue and thought they were so cute! It's a greeting card on textured coloured paper (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") in acrylic.

Unfortunately I am unable to comment on some Google+ blogs.

In Appreciation

A friend brought us this box of Thornton's chocolates from England recently. She had gone to Europe on vacation and it was a way of saying thank you for keeping her house key while she was away. Yes, the chocolates are delicious as chocolates tend to be! I've never heard of this brand though.

Paint Party Friday - Halloween Cake

Welcome to Paint Party Friday! Thanks as always to our hosts Eva and Kristin. I did a Halloween Cake on this greeting card (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") in acrylic for you today.

So Peaceful

Daughter L took this photo on a recent visit to cottage country, Muskoka to be exact. It looks so peaceful.

I was outside doing some weeding when our new neighbour's 2 small dogs came running at me aggressively, barking loudly. She was running after them, telling them to stop. They were unleashed and I thought they were going to attack or bite me. Fortunately she was able to call them off (seemingly in the nick of time) and for some reason, I didn't run or panic. She apologized. I'm not really comfortable with dogs, as I never had any pets growing up.
