Happy Tuesday!!

     Every Inchie Monday's word was chameleon.  I love those lizards!  Many years ago I owned a Jacksonian chameleon.  He was so precious.  When you held him he would wrap his fingers around your finger.  Mine had 3 horns so he looked a lot like a Triceratops!  I wish I had had him now in this age of information overload.  There are things I would have done for his care that I simply did not know to do. 
     One more week for the Joey Inspirational challenge!  I really am enjoying this.  I may have to try it again on my own.  I love getting the "new" challenge and then seeing how to connect in all the previous tiles. 
     Diva's challenge was to use the tangle Tint.  I really am not too keen on how this turned out.  But at least I finished it - that was a challenge!
     October is INKtober!  I decided to play along and do these in my calendar journal.  Here are days 1 - 6.  I know I am well ahead, but I decided to be ahead since I am not sure what my plans are for the end of this week.  I used the prompts from Wholehearted Zen Creations, but there are lists of prompts all over different sites. 

     Here are just a couple of more things that kept me occupied this week -

     Okay friends, tomorrow is the DAY!  I have my surgery at 9:30 on my cataract.  Please stop and say a prayer for me.  I honestly will be glad to just have it over.  I am still anxious, yes, but I am also excited.  I hope there is a huge difference.  I also hope for a healthy eye under this cataract - they could not get any data the cataract was so thick.  Yuck.  I am not sure when I will be able to get back to creating.  Surely that doesn't take too long??  Anyone know??
    Have a wonderful rest of the week and thanks for dropping by!  Hugs!

  1. LOL, Cathy. I warned you that being retired meant that your schedule would be even more full! I wonder why that is :)
    Good idea to do the Inktober in the calendar. I just can't allow myself to add another "must" this month. I really like your round and colored flower style Zendala!

  2. You can tangle with one eye, I know this for a fact because of my own cataract. By now, your surgery is over, and I'm betting you are absolutely fine, right?

    Your tiles, as always, are beautiful, absolutely beautiful.
