A Typical Tuesday

It's been a while since I've posted here. I don't know who's keeping up with me, if anyone. Things have just been busy. I've kept up with laundry and cooking but not too much housework going on. I'll be working in Grapevine with a friend for the next two days helping her get her townhome in better shape for the real estate market. It's been listed for a while but thehousing market is very slow so she's sprucing up the place, repairing what needs to be repaired, cleaning and freshning up a bit. I'll stay the night on Wednesday as there is no reason to drive home and then back. Time wasted that could be used to work. Friday my younger daughter moves into a townhome with her friend and I'm sewing curtains and wall covering for her bedroom along with anything else that might need to be done on Friday. The weekend looks free but who knows with children needing haircuts, school supplies, clothes, food, and general maintenance. Robin will be busy making his mirrors, that have become very popular..go to Daydream Dezigns to see what he's up to. I haven't been painting, except to finish my square for Canvas by Canvas' latest painting, The Adobe House...or whatever we end up calling it. My studio is in such bad shape I'm ashamed to call it a studio anymore. It's more a storage unit. If it's true we make time for what we truly love to do...I don't think I like to paint anymore. :) I have got to get myself organized for in the morning. Life just happens doesn't it?

Cindy, how nice to "meet" you through your comment on my blog. So glad you found me thru blog catalog! I really enjoyed looking at your blog and website. Such interesting, diverse things - and creative and fun.
I live just north of the shadow of Wheaton College! (about a mile or so) I have never been to the conference you mentioned, but will definitely look into her materials. Sounds intriguing.
I just got back from a 2 week visit in your area. (Also the area I was born and raised!)
It sounds as if we do have many things in common. I'd love to correspond!

Maybe we can paint on Mondays and I can relate to your studio/study. It's a slow process looking at one piece of paper at a time. Maybe we'll get there soon.

C2 - slow down and smell the daisies. I've been checking your blog daily and noticed that you hadn't written anything for a while - I figured you were busy. Let Kim and I know when you guys have some time to get together. - Talk to ya soon! Nora C.

Time to catch your breath, C2, and come first for a change. I'll bet there's hardly anyone out there who doesn't have a room just like your studio - me included!
