Cool Morning







All windows and doors open this A.M...... 67degrees and it feels great... not many more of these so we have to enjoy while we can....
P.W.A.T. is now offering a class on Monday afternoons in Clearwater, at the Hyatt Regency, and I got to assist the first demo class that Geri taught... What fun, and what a view... right on the beach, looking at the sparkling water and painting and making memories...
The class is offered to everyone, not just hotel guests..and is from 1:00 to 3:00 every Monday!!!!
I have been busy painting the two" Girlfriend" paintings for next Tuesday night and that should be fun.. You get to choose which one you want to do....

Today





I am having trouble figuring out how to get the pictures I want, to down load from this new computer...
so for now, I am posting without them...
I gave up and we turned the air conditioner on yesterday when the temp. registered 92...
I thought I might actually melt, I was so hot...
Our favorite family of birds have now returned to the fire place and it's always such a pleasure to hear them in there, at least at first... By Mother"s Day we will be more then ready to say goodbye to the increasing loudness of the whole family...
But, Like I said, I am happy they are back again this year....
They have been returning to raise their family's here for more years than I can remember now, and it is a comfort to know they still will...
Teresa had Mom and I over yesterday for lunch and that was very nice... Thank You Teresa!!! It was the first time Mom has left the house since before Christmas and she has needed to...so Thanks, and every thing was yummy too!!!! Your garden is beautiful....You have worked hard and it shows....
Aidan is 14 weeks old and doing well,Thank you! Thank You!!  [What a cute boy]
Leah was supposed to arrive for a visit to Seattle yesterday but due to that horrible weather in Texas ,and else where.. both her flights were cancelled... hopefully today will be better ..
Our thoughts and prayers are with the people who had that bad weather....

April 2nd.




Hottest March on record in Florida, and many other states too!!
W-O-W! That's impressive!!!!
We have still not turned our air conditioner on, and it is supposed to be a really hot week coming up, we
 shall see how long we can hold out....
Pet Portraits went well yesterday at Painting With A Twist,and all the budding new artists can be proud of them selves. Nice job everyone....
I have gotten to work 6 of the last 7 days and am a very happy camper...Thank You!! Thank You!!
All seems right in my world for now, and that's all I can ask for... hope the same for you....
