Grandchildren are my greatest joy.

My dear Mother-In-Law gave me this. I know there are many MIL jokes and that many have bad reputations but I couldn't have asked for a better Mother-In-Law......the iris at the left is purple...not the best lighting.

Such nice treasures, Paul, Art connects us to our past, present, and future.

I agree, Paul.

It’s okay to not know all the answers.

Paul, aren't you blessed to have such a talented Grand-son, and wonderful Mother-in-law.

Here's a vase that a prospective tenant tried to bribe me with. It might go into our club gift exchange next month... It's pretty, but I've got too much stuff..

That's a gorgeous vase, Sherry. If it was in my possession, it would stay right there!!! Can't believe you want to re-home it.........

(P.S. I've got too much stuff too.)

I have an original watercolor and a recent mug from Goodwill. I will have to get the camera out.

I have run across this Ukrainian artist here and there on eBay. His/her goat and horse paintings are really good too. http://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html...

Don't make fear based decisions.
