It's Wednesday!

  Another week has passed and I must have blinked because I didn't see it go by. Time seems to be speeding up on me. How about you?

I want to do some negative painting with my watercolors, play with some mixed media and...? How much time will be left to do this today I wonder. First I have to wash the dishes, make the bed, and get dressed. Yes, I'm still in my jammies! After these minor chores, I'll have about two hours before my husband gets home from work and I have to start his dinner. But, after he is taken care of, back to my art. Oh, one other thing...I have to find the top of my drawing table. It's under this clutter somewhere!

A Quick Check In

Our lifestyle has changed since my husband of nearly 50 years had a serious stroke in May 20019. No more running out for groceries when I wa...
