We have had NOTHING but RAIN RAIN RAIN

This has been a busy week. Most are. But this week I am juggling..many balls in the air. I am painting a show that I will install on November 12 in St Petersburg Florida at the  Hotel Indigo

AND ….I am painting and preparing to go to Charlotte this Sunday  for THIS:

WORDS CANNOT express how excited I am to go to Charlotte. I am even looking forward to the 6 hour drive. Listen to WICKED on the stereo, sing full blast,  finish my thoughts, think about life…and then I get to meet fun new people and paint their pets!!!

On the even more immediate front, I was photographed today for a local magazine and in order to do so, did something I have never done before..I PAID to have my hair “blown out”!! OMG – I might pay for this to happen before a personal chef when I get rich! It was such a treat..when Phoebe gets home, I will have her snap a few shots and I will add them to this post!

……………and then tonight..I am speaking at a local Women’s group meeting …How fun, if there is one thing I love doing is talking about what I do with people who want to listen…you can imagine my HOME audience has more pressing interests like…”make my lunch”, “where is my hair gel”, ” where is my hairbrush??” …and we have not even gotten to Phoebe!!!!

Lastly I am going to leave you with some EXTERIOR photos of the house…taken this morning under the first blue sky we have seen in what feels like weeks….each of the dogs took turns getting involved!

HAVE A GREAT SAFE WEEKEND!!!

and I will be reporting from Charlotte Monday!
