Contemporary Art for the home.



Wednesday finds a turkey in the oven. We are eating at Stacey Beth's tomorrow but she has a crowd coming and we would have ZERO leftovers, so I normally fix on Wednesday for Terry and I to have left overs for the next few days! He is coming home and making CHILI too! It is going to be cold shortly . Seventy degrees right now and hopefully falling soon! Tom are you ready to eat tomorrow? Can't wait to hug your neck. Charlene I wish you were here. We would share a glass of wine and many laughs and hugs. Niki I hope you have arrived in NY safely. Give my best to Helen and Joe. Jan, I know you will be neck deep in family, enjoy them all. Kathy, I share my deepest prayers with you today. I know not what your group is doing, but I know you will be serving those around you.

Yesterday I began packing up reference books and my library here in the studio. It is emotional to move. There are so many mixed emotions with the move back to the city but the pluses are family, church and friends. I have to stay focused there. No matter what we do or where we go, I feel protected by my Father in Heaven. This has been difficult as my own earthly father has progressed with Alzheimers robbing him of his thoughts and memories and his mind slowly falling into pieces. This is a man well respected for his wisdom and his strength. He indeed was a true image of God the Father, because no matter where I traveled in my life I knew KNEW that my dad was there when I needed him to help me with decisions ( as was my mom, they were a team). But I grew up knowing dad was the ultimate in all decisions and that is why that feeling of security has always been there. I must gather my strength now realizing my own earthly father is in the arms of the heavenly father and there is where my trust and faith must be. The tears I cry at this moment are for the past, the loss of the man that I knew as invincible from my earliest memories. My tears are for joy knowing that we all are wrapped in the love of God the Father. May His light and joy fill your holidays as we give thanks for all we have in our lives.

I leave you today in the protection of His Light.

Laurie
