Hello everyone! I was determined to get a post in this week. Better late than never. Last week we did not have any cell service at the school where we stayed so I could not post anything.
Wedding over. Move over. Mission trip over. Now it is down to finding all my stuff, creating a realistic schedule and settling into a new normal. This week none of that happened. My car has been undergoing repairs the whole month of June. Changing my name has taken a ridiculous amount of time. The garden has required work to get it back in shape after being gone for a week and unexpected farm chores and family/friend visits have slowed down planned projects. Maybe this IS the new normal!
I did get my work space somewhat workable, found my paints and managed to squeeze in time to do these tiny paintings this week. It’s a start!

Here are some pictures of our life events of the past three weeks.





The ASP mission trip involves a caravan of rented vans to get all of the humans and equipment to our destination.

This was my 7th and Danny’s 3rd year on the ASP trip. Each year there is a core group involved who believe in having a good time. Pranks and jokes are daily occurrences. One of the men stated that he laughs more in this one week than he does the rest of the year. This year… well see for yourself.




We got home Saturday and slept the whole afternoon and most of Sunday as well. There isn’t much rest on ASP. This week I managed to get my office/studio is some sort of working order and just had to get my hands on a paint brush.
If all goes well, I will be back on schedule next week. For my American readers, I wish you a fun, safe July 4th weekend.
