Well, that took a while! But I'm back in working order and the house is starting to look terrific. One thing I realized over the last few months while watching the workmen lay tile and replace bathroom sinks is that I HAVE to paint. I feel all yucky if I don't, so here I am, during the holidays, back on-line and posting to my blog once again.

But never mind about me, how are you??? And a very Happy New Year to you and yours!!

Life sure is crazy, isn't it? OK, so here's part of the back story, as they say in Hollywood just to the north of us. Imagine cleaning out closets and such, some that haven't been visited (or even looked into) for many years, and all the dust that gets moved around. I'm allergic to dust, which I kinda forgot... can you believe it?! Forgot! So what happened is that I got this monster sinus infection. But I kept on going and going like that bunny. You ever do that... you get some bug or other and it kinda creeps up on you and you get sicker and sicker, thinking all the while, "whew, I must be getting old or something 'cause I'm so tired!"

Went to the doctor and he said, silly, you have a sinus infection... or words to that effect. Got some good ol Z-PAC, which is now my absolute fav antibiotic, and I kid you not, within 24 hours was my old energized self once again. My primary sent me packing to the allergist, just in case, and he said, like, wear a DUST MASK, for pete's sake!! Or words to that effect;)

Meanwhile my blog hosting folks sold the company and the new boys are so not supporting the software anymore. Yikes! What that means is in the short term I have to do all kinds of strange stuff to get the posts looking right, but never mind 'bout that! Maybe I'll migrate my blog elsewhere... but until then here I am. And forsworn to post regularly.

Listening while I paint today to: Bruce, the Boss.
Working on: a small for me 8 inch square painting. Have 4 new brushes. Yahoo!
