Hi guys and gals! First,thank you for the faves and watches and notes.been a long time on here regularly.decided to retire from 15 years at Lowe’s home improvement at60 years of age and now it’s my turn to enjoy my 401 k and ss funds. Last November 30th I was diagnosed with Metastatic cancer in my upper back and neck suddenly.the pain was so severe I could not sit up for more than 10 minutes,drive a car,work,etc.it brought me down so badly and the doctors said immediate surgery was immensely required.had I ignored the situation right now or later in March,I’d be in a hospice a quadropalegic.the surgery had to be done on a moments notice and I lost my insurance because of my untimely retirement and had very little savings.now... I’m doing the treatments,follow up appts. And feel like new person again.seven cervucals and a massive tumor were removed and the bones fused.its a five year fix so to speak and later? We’ll see.radiaton and chemo are the next steps.but right now I’m gonna do things! Draw more, travel,new drum set and get back into a band. Gotta keep busy when I heal up and do things for myself instead of big box entities.for the record,metastatic cancer starts elsewhere and mine ended up in the most inconvenient section of my body.a very nasty blow to anyone’s life! Stay heathy yall and be safe.ill post my new hobbies in scraps and new art too *hugs*

First,thanks for all the faves and watches.will be posting a few winter time canvas paintings the next few weeks.some holiday and some misc.happy holidays!

Greetings to all! First is a big thank you for the recent watches and faves.im so busy with work,my elderly folks,and home upkeep,I have very little time for myself.we don’t have internet out here so all I have is my Apple cell phone.for now all I can do is take pics of my recent paintings because my phone will not transfer art from my pc. Most of my newer paintings are Christmas themed because we have an annual art show every December. I’ll share one at a time soon.thanks again and will update every so often...*hugs*

Greetings to all! I am finally back from several of life’s issues.will began posting art again soon so stay tuned

(hence the song from Deep Purple) *smiles* I may be slow at new art lately,but summer down here in Texas is hot and lathargic! Makes ya feel lazy! Love you guys,as always!

Hiyas folks! First off,thankies for the new watches and faves!I want to let you know that my son,Eric husky,is having his burrfday in three weeks.Second,sadly my stepfather had a mild stroke last weekend,but is recovering nicely.He is the only one in my square family that kept up with my art on the net and is cool with it.Thirdly,thank you all for over 30,000 page visits! I feel honored!

First off thank you for the watches and faves! You guys really make me happy! I
'm a bit slow lately with art and requests,but my aging folks keep me pretty tied up.Spring has sprung and the ongoing heavy rains and severe weather also keep me busy.I hope to get more art out soon.I did buy a drumset and hope to get back into that hobby and maybe create another band soon.

*the big fat burr wakes early from hibernation and sees trees and flowers blooming in late winter,but yawns and tries to fall back asleep in his den.His son stays close and assures his poppa needs to sleep some more* As usual.thanks for the faves and watches!You guys are the best! When I fully wake up,i'll have an update soon!

First off as usual,many happy thanks for the wishes,watches,and faves!I have been on vacation this week and its been wonderful spending time with my aging folks just outside of Austin and just being lazy.I do wanna express my concerns to those who may have been affected by the unusual tornado outbreaks,winter storms,and travel miseries.It has been rough here in central Texas,too!.Sunday night,hail piled up in drifts and lightning knocked out power for a whole day and my folks and I just hovered by the fireplace all night.We got to know each other more than ever as far as past times,family that should have been,and chatting about the old days.I also miss chatting with my furiends,but things are getting back to normal slowly.Hope y'all have a very happy holidays and will check back soon! *big smooshy hugs from the big burr*

Well its that time of year again! First,thanks to all the watches and faves! You guys mean a lot to this fat old burr! My old timer chefs,Rumples T. Wolf and Rowdy Rabbit came in today for the holidays!My son,Eric and Tawny Wolfcoon made them dinner and Jasper dragon gathered dragonberries so I could make a pie for the occasion!The chefs are a picky lot,but we made it through our first evening together.Tonight will be a hibernating event in my loft.See you guys soon! *big hugs from the fatburr*

Hi to all my fans! Thank you for the watches and faves As ya'll know i'm a weatherburr and love severe weather.Looks like from now through Sunday is gonna be very wet.Flash flooding is likely and a tornado or two in central Texas.Also have new arts in the making after a long art block.Hopfully by Halloween i'll have some new stuff up.Thanks again fur your support! *hugs all*

Hello to all my fans! It's been awhile since I posted anything,but things are hectic right now.But first...Thank you for the watches and faves!I am behind on a few pics so there will be a few soon.Mom has breast cancer and most of my time outside of work is helping her,as well as my dad with chores and running errands for them.I will move in with them in November to be closer.In the meantime,i'll post a coupla of old pics from the past. *hugs all*

Hi gang!First things first! Thank you all for the faves and the watches! Just to let you know the wet month of June continues!More rain this weekend and cooler than normal temps.My printer,scanner died last week,so those of you waiting for art may have to wait a bit longer.Also in the wings is that i'm moving again.It is possible that I will be offline for several weeks.My folks are aging and need me to move in with them to run all their errands.Worst case scenerio is that I will be offline for just a coupla weeks.*hugs all* Stay tooned!

Weatherbear here.Tropical storm "Bill" was just named two hours ago,and the forecast track brings it to Port O'conner,Tx,by noon tomorrow with 50 mph winds.After that,the storm will move almost directly over Austin by early evening with winds 25-35mph sustained.Gusts are possible to 50 in squalls.The biggest threat in central Texas will be possible life-threatening flash flooding rains of 4-12 inches along and east of I-35 corridor.This is a very dangerous situation for the eastern hill country,Austin,San Antonio,Bryan-College Station,Houston,Waco,Temple,Victoria,and all areas to the Louisiana border through Wednesday afternoon.There is also the medium risk of weak tornado outbreaks from central Texas to the Louisiana border beginning Tuesday noon,until Wednesday morning.Major river flooding is also likely areawide through Wednesday.Beginning at noon Tuesday,I am issuing a tornado watch for all of central Texas until midnight Wednesday morning.A flash flood watch is in effect until 7am Thursday for all of the area east of a Dallas to Kerrville to Laredo line.Prepare NOW!!!

Today we had serious flooding,tornadoes,and big hail here in Austin.My apt.flooded again and my neighbors upstairs came down to help me out.We got my plushies up off the floor and the whole apt is a mess.5.80 inches of rain fell in just two hours here.I am so proud of my neighbors coming to my aid.I just hope the roaches drowned,too:D

I kinda surprised myself this morning and realized it is my burrfday today.Totally furgot!Already have gotten some burrfday wishes,and thank you very much:D I gotta work this afternoon,but will treat myself to dinner and a movie tonight.

Another day older and deeper in debt--Tennessee Ernie Ford

First I wanna thank you for the watches,Faves,ans the warm welcome back! You furs are the greatest! I'm on a busy streak with work and new arts as well.New art coming soon! *hugs all*

Hiyas!!! Finally I am back in the saddle.After 7 months of absence,its a go and go!I have lots of new arts to share,and several new murals in the works.I will slowly add new arts on my page,so please be patient.

Hi everybody!!! Thank you for all the faves and watches! You guys are the best.I will be moving in a few days so I will be off-line until late August.My new apt. wont be ready until August 23rd. and in the meantime,I stay with my folks who do not have internet.My mom is very old-fashioned,but my stepdad is a very cool person,and supports my cartoon artwork.I will be snail-mailing my son,Eric Husky a piece of original art soon,and so you will see it online before I do prolly.The weather here in central Texas is still kinda mild for mid summer.No 100's yet(very rare) and the outlook here is much cooler and wetter for the beginning of August.*Yaaaaays* See y'all soon! *hugs tight*

Howdy folks! First off thank you for all the faves and watches.Secondly,I may be going away for a length of time from the internet.I am having a dispute with my internet provider and will not give in,because I am in the right.If I get disconnected,so be it! I will go with another provider.This is the second dispute with the same company,and will not give in this time.Hope to see you all again soon.*hugs*

Thank you all who wished me a happy burrfday! And as always,thanks for the watches and faves.I'm back from vacation and back in the saddle at work,which was crazy this holiday weekend.Also,finally some very much needed rain for the drought stricken state of Texas.As far as chatting with me,I deleted Skype because it was always out of service,and unreliable.Yahoo mess. is the only chat line I have.

Hi yall!!! Thankies for all the watches and faves as of late.I'm on a boat in the Gulf of Mexico deep sea fishing.My folks and a coupla furiends gave me this trip as an early burrday gift.My real burrday isnt until Friday,however.I already caught a 330b.marlin,some squid,and mom caught some small fishies.Having a great time here,and my vacation continues until Friday.Corpus Christi is beautiful this time of year and not so many tourists.Tomorrow we go out one last time,but since I already caught my limit,i'll just draw in my sketchbook instead.Maybe draw a Baroozilla?Who knows:D

Greeting to all! First off as usual,thank you all for the watches and faves!You guys are the greatest!.It seems like last month was lingering really cold weather for Central Texas,and now at the end of April,its in the low 90's already.In the last three weeks it has hailed here three times,damaging winds,but no tornadic activity this year,yet.Still in a drought though.As far as requests go,sorry,but I fell far behind because I decided to pick up my music again.Plus I taught drivers ed at a high school nearby for two months,twice a weeknight.I've three requests to do yet so please be patient.I'll catch y'all laters! *great big hugs*

Howdy neighbors! First off,thank y'all for all the faves and watches of late! It looks like a third winter storm is unfolding for central Texas tonight and tomorrow with a possible heavy ice event.The atmosphere profile suggests thunderstorms that could produce heavy sleet accumulations and icing on elevated objects.Down here in central Texas,we are wimps when it comes to winter weather.We just dont know how to drive and fly in such conditions.Dragons get their wings coated with ice,and us furries get slippery feet paws.Travel is difficult.But...on a warmer note,I have a coupla new requests coming out ina few weeks,so stay tuned:D *hugs all*
