Home in Houston

It is about 9pm in Houston and I feel I need to write in my journal because it has been about 4 days. After returning to Houston on Tuesday night it has been hectic in the studio. I have been busy shipping my orders out while Guiteau unpacks the truck with Michel, our part-time studio assistant. Michel usually sends me the mail when I am out of town but seems as if it has piled up...bills too. The last shipment of mail I got was about a week ago and it looks like 2 weeks of mail were left for me to open.

Now, among other things, I had to make some long past-due doctor's appointments. I have had some unhealed sores on my leg and back for longer than I want to say so today I had an appointment with a dermatologist. Not good to wait as skin cancers get worse with time. Somehow I have to try to schedule biopsies and surgery in between shows in March.
Monday I have an eye doctor's appointment...it never ends.

I will try to get some art photographed for eBay. I have some items that I clearance every year from my studio and bring to LaVillita for their fund-raising art show in April. I will first put them on eBay and whatever doesn't sell at a decent price I will bring to San Antonio, TX.

Also, I sold some of my very large canvas paintings in Florida and would like to get a couple of pieces done in the next week before going back to the east coast of Florida.

Paperwork, artwork, appointments........it is a lot this week. But, I am happy to be home. As you may know by now we are movie buffs. Just saw "Freedom Writers"...what an excellent and inspirational movie.

Saturday night we may go to see the Last King of Scotland. Since we are out of town so often, we try to catch up on movies with our dear Grand-son Aaron who is working and off a couple of nights so we can have family night.

God bless all of those of you who may take time to read this.....We are truly blessed. May God bless the troops, our leaders, our friends and of course our families.
