I'm extracting the cream from my mountain of "neat stuff". So many beautiful things, so many possibilities, and life is so short and health and energy are dwindling. I found a lot of nice lace and my one world class piece of amazing lace: the Bedford bobbin lace collar. The potholders, hankies, crocheted pretties and linen dishclothes are now organized. And that is just the beginning.
I made arrangements to buy the painting I've been wanting for so long. It's an oil of a girl smoking with a cat and 3 birds flying into a thicket by Ian Michael Anderson. It's about the intensity of brooding (just my interpretation and part of my reason for buying it). But just the excitement of owning something so beautiful, and paying $500. for the privilege, has got me looking around and seeing the beauty and value of the artwork I already own. I can't lose this feeling.
