...and it's working for me! hehe I thought I might need a little help this week after Nancy Bear contacted me about getting her pool ready for 42,000 Teapotters! My first thought was "she must have one very big pool"!
So I quickly trained Curt so he could give me a hand. You see her neighbor has a rather large tree that keeps dropping leaves into her pool. Not good. BUT not to worry, Curt and Mutnik are on the job.....my card...
Being this is Curt's first real job, he wanted me to take his picture to save for his scrap book. So my card today is a photo of Curt in his B & C tank top.
Wasn't sure I was going to make the party today. We kept having power surges that kept knocking my computer off. So I turned the power strip off and went to the grocery store. Since today is also billing day, having my computer not running wasn't a good thing.
Returned from the store, put groceries away, fired up the computer, printed out my billing and had a little extra time to take Curt's photo.....so glad I didn't have to draw a card this time. hehe Just kidding. I love drawing my scenes. Hope you all like them.
Now I have a 150 statements waiting to be folded, stuffed into an envelope and stamped ready for the mail. Life, isn't it fun! hehe
Well, I shall be back to comment. The gallery sure is full of fun looking cards! ......TFL :0)

Wonderful card, Cathy!! This is such a typical summer weekend chore, isn't it, cleaning the leaves out of the pool. So great that Curt has been able to help to get the pool/backyard ready for this week's party!!

Cathy, Curt is one incredible cow to have around the house. There just doesn't seem to be any end to his many talents!! Glad he could help Nancy clean her pool. If there is one thing I hate, it's dipping into a dirty pool!!!

LOL LOVE that Curt got his first job! I see the leaves in the skimmer, so it looks like he is doing good too! His outfit is too CUTE! Love the shades too! Beautifully drawn, fabulous coloring and another FANTASTIC tale of our favorite cow, Curt for our teaparty! Thank you for always being one of the bright spots week after week!!!

I could have used the Curt when I had a pool for many, many years that was surrounded by 27 oak trees. We had leaves in the pool a lot! Of course I probably couldn't have afforded Curt.... Cute, cute card, Cathy!

Trees, the bane of every pool company, right? (The genius landscaper of our subdivision put river birches around the community pool, so it's a constant problem). So glad to see that Curt is gainfully employed this summer so you can keep him out of trouble. I guess he's not much good at stuffing envies, though, is he?

"Oh pool boy". Anyone who has had to clean the pool knows it's a job. Curt looks like he's got it down. Now, time to enjoy a refreshing dip! Cute as can be card, Cathy.

I did not know there is a dress code for cows working in your line of work. Look at those legs!! Really cute scene. This made me think that since I recently lost my job....sigh....I could sell my house and move to California and work for you. If Curt can do it so can I. Just an idea.....hugs to you sis.
