The Painting: Bits of winter are lingering as we approach March. Made me think snow as it is in the forecast for next week again here in Dallas. This is really unusual.

The Thought: Tired weary bones... tired body....tired mind, even after tired sleep. Wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord. Preparing the house for sale is ever so exhausting. I am tired of moving. Wait upon the Lord.

Sometimes reading in Psalms it is easy to feel David's pain as he wrote and cried out to the Lord in his fear or tiredness. Before when reading it I easily could imagine how desperate he was to share his heart with the Lord God, but now I really understand.

Yesterday started out on a bad step as two of my boxes went in two different directions. The box heading for Croatia stayed in Texas and the box heading for Texas is on the way to Croatia. This is not necessarily easy to fix, but I will wait up on the Lord. In ten years Terry and I have never miss labeled a shipping label. The day began to slide downhill quickly but no crashing...praise God for that! Morgan was over and he, Terry, Uncle John and I worked most of the day and took a break for Italian food about 2:30. We never had breakfast and that was the only meal yesterday.

The living room is done. The garden room is done. The kitchen is done. The guest bedroom is done.

Terry has been working on the studio/now den and our room and hopefully Crystal is working on her room and we might make it. The house is smiling outside as the couple that does our yard came two days and created beds of blooming tulips and colorful pansies. I will take pictures to share!

Today we will neaten up and do a bit of touch up and cleaning here and there and the dogs might go to the Vet for two days to in able us to clean and have everything done. I am still deciding as it will cost so much to get them in for one night... like $300. They have to have updated bordetella and something else to be there. I can't figure it out. That is a lot to me. We may just have them with us on Sunday.

I leave you with the thought, Wait upon the Lord, you must wait upon the Lord.

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. This is available for purchase. Please click here to see pricing and painting.

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...
