Devin Hester - Chicago Bears

Posted by: Susie  //  Category: Thoughts

As I sit and watch the Chicago Bears - I ponder the question, how long will it take for the Chicago Bears to trade him? Would it surprise anyone? Will they see dollar signs and think he is trading material?

I certainly hope not, but it wouldn’t surprise me!

This piece was done on a vintage window, I sprayed the front with frost and sketched with white and black charcoal pencils the Chicago Bears Logo - for my brother in law.

I also want to thank Koz for recently donating several autographed photo’s of the Chicago Bears players for our 15th annual Christmas party - due to weather conditions - the attendance was down this year, but I was able to raise $200.00 and donated it to The Assisi Foundation in Crystal Lake, Illinois.  I was amazed at the phone calls I made to organizations, I wanted to help out kids that were not going to have any gifts under the tree, and never got any calls back.  Thanks for your concern - so the money went to an organization that needed and appreciated it!

We adopted our two cat’s Carly and Stanley from Assisi over the last two years, and I would recommend them highly.  The Cat thats afraid of Scissors!

New Years is approaching all to quickly - planning on staying in for most of the weekend, its pretty typical Chicago-Style weather, dreary, ugly and I am waiting for Summer!

What makes us all tick, what makes us happy? With so much death and distruction in Chicago Bears Office Chairthe news and all around us, I’d like to take this time to open up the floor for comments and conversation.

Things that make me happy or put a smile on my face these days:

1 - Stevie Ray Vaughan - any way shape or form (I know..its getting old)
2 - My new Chicago Bears Office Chair - even though they blew off the entire year, but  they swept Green Bay!
3 - Fresh Clean Sheets
4 - Playing Nap on a cold day
5 - A purring cat in my lap

Whether its a corn dog at Coney Island, or a ski lodge filled with laughter - what puts a smile on your face?  Go for it, even if it involves your nasal passage - what a funny conversation that was over at Bloggeries Forum!
