icons vs tv

hope
All day today we moved furniture. We rearranged our things, and we rearranged our feelings.We put the house upside down, and said a few choice words. We took things down then moved them all around.
WHY? All in the name of a TV.  It's almost football season and we must have a big giant TV right?
Yeah that's right! It is here. The only place it fits really is the place I used to keep my collection of crosses.
There are a bunch of them over there on the table.

Today all I wanted to do was make some art.....
My art is a pile of icons. My hope for Inspiration Avenue this week.
All is forgiven there is still hope :-)

  3. 'Course, me being me, just had to laugh at the image of the words flying over the tv. Sounds like typical married life at times. Lovely crosses, Gemma!

  5. I'm sorry about the inconvenience caused by a t.v. My sister's husband is the same way about football season. I was lamenting that this sport is a kind of holy of holies to some men, and F. carefully explained to me that if we lived in Europe, he'd been acting the same way about soccer (or the real football, as he calls it). ;)

    (Of course, we no longer have a t.v. so it's a moot point, hehe.)

    Lovely collection, Gemma.

  6. Well we have a couple of football mad beings in this house too (soccer). The Premiership started yesterday and boyfriend's team play their first match in 22 minutes. He is already on the sofa ready, remote control to hand and 42 inch TV blaring out!
