What's been going on?




Hey everyone. I haven't posted any thoughts lately. It's been all business and I can only do that for so long. Today I finally got to sleep late, did all of my "gottas" first thing and have been creating the rest of this afternoon. What a wonderful way to spend a lazy Sunday. I don't get to do this very often, so when it happens, it's a real treat. Life has been so busy lately. With the gallery going full speed ahead and my children getting into their last semesters and years of high school....there is little time for much else.

Two of my children went to prom last night! My goodness, I am so very proud of them. They are growing up to be beautiful adults inside and out. Here is a picture of them before they left with their dates. Just brother and sister. Aren't they sooo cute. They each have their own style when it comes to clothes. I think they expressed themselves nicely! I know....enough with the mommy bragging. But, I can't be ALL art all the time :) he he

Ok...back to life. Like I said the gallery is turning out to be a great project. People in the community seem to love it and most of the artists are selling their booties off. Even with this economy the way it is. It has been nice to see new people come in and immediately get a smile on their face! Isn't that what it is all about? Yes...I thought so.

It's been a whirl wind this year. We had a trip to Kauai that in three words....BLEW ME AWAY! I swear, when I stepped off the plane, I actually felt the hum of the earth beneath my feet. It was so inspirational. I came back from that trip changed forever. And one day, if God is willing, I will actually live there. Heaven....sheer Heaven.

My goal this year is to slow down a little....well...a lot :( I am having to really work at this. And it's hard! My body is not what it used to be and there seems to be something wrong with the joints. Long story short, I am being shown by God that He really wants me to slooooow down and enjoy this life, instead of running full throttle all the time. I am missing so much by doing it that way. So we will see if I can do it. hmmmmmm? Right now my energy is focused strictly on my family and the gallery. http://www.16maingallery.com/

(obvious plug) LOL

I will try to write more on here and get back to letting you all in on what is going on with me. Instead of just posting work. I love going to other artists websites and getting to know them as opposed to just seeing their art. It helps me to share....and in turn....it helps you all to hear the experiences.

ok....signing off for now. NEED to go back to creating. I can feel it in my bones.......

Night,
