Beginning again....

When I titled my previous post, I guess I really had no idea how true it would be only a few days later....it has been a traumatic Christmas. But, the holidays are behind us...and I am ready to seize the New Year...even if my legs are a little wobbly. I am about to get my sea legs on my constantly changing life...I am starting to feel the urge to paint again...especially after receiving a check from Southern Living yesterday. Alas...I am not purely motivated by creativity...but also from neccessity and dare I admit it...GREED!!!!!!
