Universal Studios

So here are Sky, Tanner, Brittany and I at Universal Studios.

Baltimore Craft Show

Well, the Baltimore Craft Show is a few days away.  So I'm in my usual pre-show frenzy.  Regretting all the time I wish I'd spend doing this and that.  Oh well, I've got a lot of work already, it's just become a habit to pull a few all day/nighters pre-show.  I'm not even sure why I'm bothering except that I've already paid the fees.  I don't anticipate a high turn out.  I'll be glad when it's over, just so I can get some work done on the house and garden.  I can't wait for Spring!!

Paperwork

Today I was dealing with all the paperwork I had accumulated over the past year......bills, letters, receipts, cards, photos, lists, etc. etc.

OH MY GOD

But, it was kind of cool.  I re-read this letter I had gotten from a friend, a person I had once loved in another life time, and hadn't heard from in 30 years.  I felt like I was meant to have this letter today, to remind me of what to let go of, what to keep. 

You see, if you don't let go of anything, you could end up drowning; sinking beneath the weight of it all.  Thank you, long lost youth friend.

Snow Day

  The Snow is Melting

The snow is melting

and the village is flooded

with children.

Kobayashi Issa



Having a boy is both wonderful and terrible.  Wonderful to get a glimpse into the joy of just being.  Terrible because of the fear inspired by their total lack of nerve.

Post Chicago

Just got back from a four day show in Chicago.  What a long drive.  

One last show this week, and I'm done for the year.

thank god.

BAZAART

Coming up November 28th and 29th, is Bazaart an art/crafts show at the American Visionary Art Museum.  This will be the 4th or 5th year I've shown there (that tricky time thing.....) Anyway, it is usually a fun show with everything from the funky to the sublime.

Happy Halloween!!
