My new scanner thing is here, but it's not hooked up yet, so photo will do for this week. I spent some time trying to find a NOT multi use machine-because if one thing (in this case an ink door) goes missing on these things, nothing will work. I never print, I just wanted a scanner. But the good news is you can get a scanner printer for much less than the price of the first scanner I ever bought. Progress.
My first scanner was a sheet fed HP, my brother bought it for me for a Graduation Present from Grad school-it was probably the biggest (price wise) present I ever got in my life for something like that. I finally let it go after it had been out of service and replaced by a flatbed with higher resolution, but oh how I loved that scanner!
My brother still has (in some form) pieces of my original computer-probably just the case at this point. I think it had something like 10K of memory-yes, K, not G.
This has little to do with cactus, other than the picture, so I'll quite rambling and post.

Ok-Graduation Present from Grad school-is someone feeling a bit insecure today? LOL. I'm always torn between just fixing it, or pointing out my flaws. Today I will keep my skirt lifted.
In a minute I'm going to TAKE A SHOWER....and later I will Feed The Dogs.
Delightful "Tres Amigos" sketch. I like the cute animal. It is amazing that in the desert, little rodents can move spiny pieces of cactus to barricade the entrance to their dens.
Nice effort Debra..even I couldn't but notice the small animal..I think it adds up to the pic.
Happy Cactus Monday!!!

Wonderful sketch!
HCM!
the orange and mouse make the sketch, you should do more of these. happy CM fellow cactuteer.
Yes, I agree the orange flower and the little critter make the whole scene very sweet!
Happy CM, Debra!!!
I love the mouse...I love mice in general. And the flower reminds me of a trillium which I miss seeing. So I guess this is a happy sketch for me to be seeing!!
I was wondering if Oliver pooped on the cactus though? That little bit of yellow looks suspicious!
Oh Mr. Biiiiiird???? What did you do?
:D
LOL-Mr. Bird Poop is dark green and white-birds like snakes, poop and pee through the same outlet. See what things you can learn here?
Your picture is wonderful Deb. Love that bloom too. Our scanner doesn't work so I take pictures of everything.
that is one finely drawn mouse. i wish emily rabbit could draw as well....
xoxoxo
I love that you included the flower with the cactus as it is so true to nature.
HCM!
