Time marches on and I'm tottering in its wake...literally. I used to laugh at the commercials where an older lady falls and says, "I can't get up!" Not so any more. My joints are creaky and my center of gravity has shifted to off center. Not fun...or funny. My writer's muse has returned somewhat. I'm trying to finish the church's cookbook and a children's story. On top of that, Robert and I are re-finishing our inside doors, what fun that is. We take the doors down, wash them, coat them with clear gloss, paint the hinges and knobs, and on  a few...hang mirrors (the better to detect vampires with, you know). I've been on a Clean House kick lately. I love that show but fail to see how people can live like the ones they show on the program. Our house has never been that bad but at times, I suppose, it might have been a candidate for that other show called Tacky House. But then, we live here and love it, so tacky is a matter of one's personal taste, isn't it?

    I've gotten word of some possible exhibits for Shirley's art in the coming year, 2011. I will post more information as I receive it but I know many of you have been asking about her art. I will be involved in some way, the details haven't been worked out, but I will keep you informed as I learn more. I have relocated my Shirley Mason original to my den. It hangs above my desk and inspires me daily. Hey, maybe that's what brought my muse back - she loves Shirley's art also.
