My friend, Sharon Guinn, has been down with a flu bug over the holidays and was not about to lay abed and wish herself better, but got out her paints and did six new paintings which she will be entering in shows this spring. She called the 'girls', "Winter Faces" , and we all know just how they feel. It has been along hard winter with freezing temperatures and, for those of you who live in the snow country, you certainly got more than your share. Speaking of snow, granddaughter Erin is up in the snow country snow boarding along with her students and a few other faculty members. They are having a ball and are enjoying every minute on the mountain tops. I am waiting patiently of news of the trip. It will be interesting to find out how the girls did and how many have been snow boarding before. I also wonder if it is easier than using skies. Back in our days we were lucky we had a Flexible Flyer and a hill to slide down. I did go down a mountain side once on a big inner tube and that was exciting with only the body to steer.
How about the "Giraffe with Blue Eyes"? What a whimsy and what a personality. Sharon has a wonderful sense of whimsy which shows in her 'not serious, art work. There is a lot of thought and talent to bring out this whimsical side of her, remember the fisherman which was on an older blog not too long ago? He was something else again. If I need a smile I know where to go.
So today, find a reason to smile. I'm off to make my coffee and wake up. It is Monday . . . the very first day of your new week. I wonder what challenges you will face . . . another snow storm, well you know how to handle that . . . just know that you can handle anything that comes your way, after all, you have faith, hope and charity, so keep that in mind and have a tony the tiger greeeeaattt day! Hugs to all.
