Rays Of Sun

(sort of)

It is another damp gloomy day. (I think that WERTHERS candies look like sun rays) The ground is damp and the garden is a most delightful shade of green. Our old pecan tree in the front is seeding and blooming. The tree trimmers shaped the tree this season and it is very beautiful.

I must work in my studio room today. Mitzu and Libby will be by my side. There is much work to to. Perhaps I will take a few photos of the new work. Have you ever had anyone "bait" you? You know the kind of bully or friend who uses your affection for them to have you jump through their hoops. Goodness. They must feel very bad about themselves to resort to that for self gratification. Here is a special note to my bully. You are a good person. Take care of you and try to be the best you that you can be. Spend the time, that you use thinking up tactics to berate people, and doing something good for someone who does not have as much as you do. Life is a gift, totally amazing and if you give... instead of take, your heart will sing. I am reading the new Wally Lamb book. (again) Have you ever wondered what attracts you to certain authors? Their characters? Their vocabulary? Their capacity for kindness or violence? I wish I could write. Merde, I wish that I could spell. (go on, laugh) Off I go, to feed pug dogs, and paint...... To Lauren & Josh. enjoy breakfast at the TIP TOP Cafe. I love it there. Jami. Thank you for yesterday. Larry, you cooked burgers out on the grill last night for me. They were perfection. You are the gift of today... Love you lots. Me.
