Oh Tom... you do know how-to throw one [cat amongst the pigeons]
Good morning all

It does happen...you have to stop and think 'what day is this'??? 
Okay, I'm exaggerating...it's plus 2 celsius which is warmer than we've had for months. I know, this isn't the weather channel/thread but I couldn't help myself. I painted a few more pictures this week and can't seem to stop obsessing. We're having people over after church on Sunday so I really should think about cleaning up and doing some grocery shopping. It's so easy to plop down in front on the easel afterwork, neglecting everyone but the dog. Please pray for me...I need discipline and self-control! I'm going over to the prayer forum for a little while, then I'd better get some work done around here or I may very well get fired! Have a good day peeps! 
Hi Yvie 
... I'm praying that God makes a way. In Sept, 2011 I began selling avon. I like it... this month I accepted a position as the district managers administrative assistant. It's part time doesn't pay a lot but it is more than I had in the beginning... God handed it to me so I took it. I never applied for it, it just appeared out of no-where...I'm working for the district manager so I should learn plenty that way (second job I've found that way lol).I screwed the first one up.lol .. I'm not even going to ask for prayer today... too many people so much worse off than me. God bless all. I can't figure out what God has in store for me after the walgreens upset (if anything)...I have kind of asked god to get me out of there without killing me financially... Probably the wrong kind of prayer but it's what I want. I just want to do something that won't stress me so much. OOOPs I don't know if I ever actually said where I worked. I seriously doubt anyone from corporate is monitoring this forum looking to fire me for slander or telling secrets. lol.
Painting (historically) seems to be a form of expression when your sole is troubled... and those after you if your work is still around (not that your going anywhere soon. lol) stand to learn from what your paint... If not that, then your family will always have you hanging on their wall. Such a beautiful expression of who you are and of your personality, what you valued... 
so, you want to paint less. Okay, I'll be praying for balance in your life... the arts are important... not always lucrative but important all the same..Our capitalist society doesn't always value them but there are books written on the subject. Some of them required reading for high schoolers. where would we be without them?? life would be so sterile... God most definitely appreciates beauty and creativity. I'm quite sure your work would be posted on his heavenly refrigerator or the equivalent to it if he does things like that.
I have been listening to an audio version of the painting of dorian gray... It's entertaining and enlightening and I have been falling asleep to it these last several nights. before that it was the adventures of sherlock holmes... also entertaining and enlightening, as it gives me a peak into the lives and concerns of those who lived during the time frame it was written in. I realize it's pure fiction but in many ways it's informative because the writer must write from his or her own point of reference. so the books make reference to such things as drug addiction, or simply how important a warm fire was when it was cold outside...I usually fall asleep before the story is over though. lol
We have nice weather here tooMorning Eagles....feels like spring out there.
Thank you for your prayers ~hey, I pop in every now and again and take a look at what's going on.. say a quick prayer for someone who doesn't seem too be doing to well or sometimes I just don't know how to pray (in some cases)... Lots of sadness in the prayer thread.... But, I guess that is what the prayer thread is for... Overwhelming situations....
Just wanted to say hello... Shirley has been sick for an awful long time... too long. hope that clears up completely soon...Yvie (I think that's how you spell it) can sure paint... wow!! mind boggling to me... Dave is still dave... always encouraging always level headed... Looks like Gail's been promoted... You are a prayer warrior if I ever saw one.
Love, connie
Thank you, I am better, but still not through the woods yet with this "cold".
It is good to see you again birdie...((((((hugs))))))....don't know if you realize , to me anyway, you are a gifted writer...maybe the Lord can use that talent in some way that pays you something...hmmmm.
I do like to shop at our Walgreen's in town, the store is always clean and it is easy to check out.
Thank you, I am better, but still not through the woods yet with this "cold".
We have nice weather here too
You have my prayers ~ I know how hard balance can be at times
Thank you for your prayers ~
