A very quick blog as we tend to last minute things around the house. I will try and take pictures as we finish up. Terry has the gate done in the backyard. He and Morgan will move the boat this morning so it is not sitting in the middle of the back yard. The extra boat pieces will be stored next to the side of the house. He has the horrible itch to get a second boat trailer for the second boat but I suggested a storage area when he said that. He then said, I have a back yard, and I said...you need lawyer first. I do not think I am over sensitive to TWO huge sailboats taking over the entire backyard.

I am on a mission to find out more about Alzheimer Trained Dogs. I now know they exist. I found the first one was trained in Israel. There are a few here in the states, but not many. This is a void that must be filled. With the growing number of Alzheimer's patients in the US, it is a screaming need. These dogs are trained to be a 24 hour companions for that patient. They stay velcroed to the patient and alert the household if the patient opens the door to leave the house. They stay with the patient at all times everywhere even out at the store or the movies. If the patient would happen to get out, the dog is trained to find the patient by scent. If you think about it, the bond between the Alzheimer's Patient and the dog would be solid. The therapy part is unbelievable and then you add in the safety issues with a well trained dog. So if you know of anything please email me! The link is above by the painting.

Go with God today. Enjoy the day and the gifts He has given to you so freely. Realize as always the stress that you have you brought into your life, He did not. Let Go and Let God today. Let God be your guide, your full time 24 hour companion. Let God take over your worries, troubles and concerns. Listen for His "bark" to signal danger and let Him be your guide. You will be blessed by your listening.


Grace,
Laurie

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

EXHAUSTED Woman Figurative Oil Painting, Art Deco Painting, Art Abstract Painting, Women in Kitchen Oil Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

'Exhausted' 24 x 24  Oil on Canvas Contact me to purchase by check or paypal. Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2019 Sleeping Cowboy Commissioned Painting for one of our oldest friends. 2004  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY BLOG  ON INSTAGRAM     @lauriepaceblog Available Paintings by Laurie Pace          “I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
