Today

Life goes on. And it's going to be a warm and sunny day! Close to 80 today and we're still in the first few weeks of spring. Of course, being spring and changeable, the 80 degree day will be followed by at least 4 days with temps in the low 60's and rain.

Shame on me. I had an uncomfortable moment last night at our weekly, less than conventional, Bible study. It was uncomfortable because I let myself get carried away and I'm certain that my voice was raised. I was indignant! And all because one of our friends noted that a particular passage from the Bible made it certain in her mind that 'welfare' was condemned in the Bible. (we live in a very 'Red' county)

Crankiness does not become me. OK, from now on I resolve to quietly tell those who make such statements, that unless they have facts to uphold their view, they have only an opinion. Not that there is anything wrong with opinions, after all, everybody's got one! But opinions should never be confused with the truth. There is a difference. And that goes for me as well…

Back to the first subject; the very fine day ahead of us…since it will be so nice, I will open the garage door and let the spring sunshine flood my small 'studio'. My haven for the arts. I have half a dozen projects; acrylics, watercolors, glass, wood and the ever present gourds that need my attention after being ignored all winter and today will be the day to get a few of them done. Or re-envisioned.
