No lemons, just peaches and pears
The link above is to art.pad.com... a neat little tool I only just discovered. It is SO elementary, that I'm not afraid of it (unlike photoshop, my scanner, my watercolors, my markers, etc. etc.

I think I'll go EAT the raspberries I have in the fridge, and then see if I'm inspired to paint anything different.

I had a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng afternoon nap... nothing else really going on... I hope that I'm not going to want or need more and more sleep than this as the chemo progresses... I just feel sluggish. "Well," she says, looking for the bright side,"at least I have an excuse."
Besides, there's no use in "wishing" things were other than they were. I have time to nap, and that's what seems to be most satisfying... so that's what I'm gonna do!

How often can you say THAT?

Wishing is okay, as long as you know that sometimes they don't come true. But if we never wished, we'd never use the hope that we're born with. Never lose the hope. It's a fragile gift, easily injured.

Sometimes, it helps to wish for things that we know we're going to get...like the raspberries in the fridge.

Keep strong.
