Winter Scene
Another rather boring day. Seems like not much to write about. Beverly called and that was nice to get to talk to her for a while. She says it's about 76 degrees in Vegas and I hear the trees are budding. The fields in back of Betty's in Mesquite are turning green. So maybe that will influence us to stay a little warmer..... just so the roads will be good for traveling. Gina called too, and invited me to ride along with her to Vegas when she goes down for family time in a week or so. But I think I better stick to my chemo treatment schedule and wait until there is a break from that. Later Nancy, my artist friend in Nebraska called and we visited for a while. So it was a good day for phone calls.
Today I finished a painting I've had started for a while and am happy with it. I'll get it photographed to show you soon. Got the frame fitted to it. Sure hope I keep at finishing up the things I have started now. For several days now I've been looking for the reference photos for all the pieces I have half done, and couldn't find them. FINALLY this afternoon found them stuck in a briefcase and tucked in between a couple of painting boxes. When I went to the Tuesday art group they weren't where I thought they were, so couldn't work on those pieces.
Made a crock pot of cabbage rolls for dinner. And there's enough leftover so Joe would have something to heat up for his dinner tomorrow. I'm going to town and will stay overnight coming home Sunday, but it's partly a surprise so I'll write about it in a couple of days, and miss blogging tomorrow. Hope the weather will cooperate, as it looks like a chance of snow and wind anyway.

It is supposed to be 70° here tomorrow, and then snow in the forcast for Sunday. We don't have anything budding here yet, but there is no snow left on the ground.
Glad you are hearing from Nancy. I think she finally set up in ? her bedroom to paint a portrait. Something current.
Good luck with your painting. You should be doing all the pieces you have in your heart. The picture you posted today would made a wonderful painting. You do the light on the mountains so well. Looking forward to seeing the one you just finished.
A surprise, oh boy, oh boy!!
Will be sending you an email tomorrow. Time for bed now.
Love, ~J~
