For some artists, I imagine signing a contract with a gallery would be a measure of success. I canceled my contract with a gallery, and it was long overdue. What a relief.

I performed my first wedding in 4 months. It was wonderful. Without boasting, can I say that is something I am really good at? And the endorphins… They all tell me how wonderful the ceremony was. They tell me, with tears in their eyes, that it was perfect, and that God sent me to them.

It’s kind of like drawing. I’ve done it so many times I could poo poo it. When you do something so many times, it becomes second nature.

If I draw a fish in 30 seconds and it looks good, it actually took me 60 years to draw that.

It’s not nothing. It’s experience.

I’m updating my home study, so I changed the batteries in the smoke detectors, checked the fire extinguishers, cleaned out the food trap on the dish washer (it was like dissecting an alien), ran the clean cycle on the oven, changed the filters in the Brita pitchers…. we even cleaned out my son’s closet!

Please send your positive energy in our direction. We will receive it with gratitude.
