Thank you all ~ I'm doing well on some days, not so much on others. Star, I have started to paint again. I spent this past weekend at my baby bro's cabin & did some sketching. Baby bro asked me to frame one of my sketches so he could hang it in his cabin.
Spending lots of time in my flower beds; studying in my backyard & watching the birds & squirrels. I have an albino squirrel, that I've named Snowball, in my backyard. I've noticed that squirrels are complete bigots ~ won't spend time with Snowball, in fact, they chase him away from the feeders & out of the yard.
I'm finding myself grieving. My mom, my grandpa, my aunt all died 5 going on 6 years ago. Steve going on 4. I'm finally able to allow myself to be sad over the loss of these remarkable people in my life. I'm even spending a great deal of time remembering my baby sister & weeping. She died in 1969 when I was 12 going on 13 years of age.
thanks for the good thoughts & prayers. I am hoping to check in on a more regular basis AND I find myself avoiding the computer except for school work.
