Grandma Martha

Prayer request
for my sweet Gram
Gram is 92 & currently in the hospital with multiple masses of cancer. She is on hospice & we are so hoping for her to pass with as little pain & time as possible. The past few days have been very rough for her & I. She has been such a dear to me all my life & it will be very hard without her but I want her to go on & be well & at peace. thank you

I am an Artist!

Irish Blessing:
May your neighbors respect you,
Troubles neglect you,
The angels protect you,
and Heaven accept you.
Last Saturday I had an interview with a art gallery in Columbus, OH to become an exhibitor.
So after work the family & I headed an hour & 45 min. to the "big city" to see what they'd say.
I am so very excited, humbled & just plain pleased to say that I am an ARTIST.
I have been accepted into the Mac Worthington Gallery & will have my first piece in the July show! I will be featured on the website year round & will also be in two other shows this year.
Wow - huh? The director decided that I should also think a bit larger & do some bigger scaled pieces soooo I am up for the challenge. It appears that my Altered Art technique will offer a different take that they are excited to launch for me.
I will of course keep you posted & you may certainly check it out via the web. I will be adding pieces to the webite hopefully this weekend, stay tuned for more breaking news & here's hoping that spring may find us soon!
Hugs,
JILL

A smile

Happy 13th Adam
Domino pendants in process

Latest fun find: Barbie Tee


Belle & Jack
"A smile is the beginning of peace."
Mother Theresa

I'm slowly coming out of my "funk" of sadness since losing Jack I know it's crazy but I really am a terrible sucker for animals.

I miss my fur baby & have begun looking for a new one.

On the plus side my kids are good & Adam is doing Baseball.
Adam also graduated from "tween to teen" (his words) as in big 13! yep it hardly seems real that I now have 2 teenagers - yikes! Survived his sleepover party with 3 other boys.
Fun find of the week my new Barbie retro Tee came it's from Avon. I'm an Avon rep so if you need one let me know I'll see if I can't get you one. Notice the umbrella & boots too.

I worked some more on the domino pendants just not feeling all that creative or anything else much, but moving along I'm trying to find peace & smile.
