A Little Band Aid

Hello Friday!

I’m up early watching Wimbledon; I can watch it all day, but I’m off to work in a little while.

Boy, it’s been a tough week, almost two weeks. I haven’t been able to get out of this funk. A Libra horoscope from this week says,
“Darkness defines the light. You can almost be grateful for the problems that arise this week, as they will serve to make you grateful for support and help from others. You will see what is best.” I laughed when I read this yesterday. It was right on the money.

Yesterday, after speaking with Annatte, I felt much better. I had to say it all out loud. I felt an understanding about what has been happening; I've felt discouraged about the progress of my art career. I felt like giving up, but I won't. I will continue because it is what I love to do. My Little Girls mean everything to me. I now know what I need to do next.

The piece here is titled, “Annatte at the Beach with Bandaids.” It is a piece from many years ago. When I saw the actual photograph that inspired this Little Girl, I immediately went home from work and finished it instantly. Thank you Annatte for the little band-aid-of-listening, for being such a beautiful part of my life.

I'm feeling better already :)

Happy Friday everyone.
