Time Waits For No Man

This ATC decided to show itself just as I was wandering off to bed at 2am this morning! I had no intention of doing anything other than turning the light off on my desk when I walked into my playroom.... but, this guy sprang to mind and I had no choice - I had to start playing - yawn! I'm glad I did tho' as I'm pleased with what emerged. Bit weary this morning tho' when Red Boy started knocking on the door at 7am to be let in - far too bright for his own good that cat! As soon as I move in the morning, all the other animals imagine it is breakfast time and I'm far too soft to tell them otherwise and so, by then, I'm wide awake. The animals are all instantly fast asleep again of course....I feel I may be doing something wrong.... answers on a postcard, please!
I am entering this atc in the Something Completely Different challenge which just happens to be TIME this month. (Thanks Chriss for the nudge in the right direction!) - take a look at all the wonderful work at http://adifferentchallengeaweek.blogspot.com/ - its well worth the trip!

    Thanks for visiting my blog. I thought for sure that my sister had finally decided to follow it. Her name is Betsy and her personal chef service is called "Ovens to Betsy" It's even more exciting to get someone form across the sea.
    I'll be checking out your blog too now!

    Sometimes the best work comes late at night when all the world is sleeping. I really like this, particularly how you used the image in repeat on the bottom.
