FEELING HELPLESSLY GIDDY + LUCKY!


The other day I was looking for treasures, as I strolled
down an alley. Lo and behold what did I spy?
That's right, a lotto ticket that was only part-way scratched! 

My felt so fortunate . . . ecstatic . . . and giddy, 
as I frantically searched my pockets for a penny. 
My eyes popped with visions of big fortunes, 
for after all,  I didn't spend any money to purchase 
it, so it must be a sign. 

Ta-dah . . .  I won another ticket!

The giddiness I felt, was similar to the emotion 
experienced when entering juried art shows. That 
anticipation is so tangible.

Now you ask, what great fortune did the 2nd ticket 
bring? 

Ta-dah . . . not a darn thing.

MEMORIES AND FAVORITES

DIGNITY pastel SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR After the holidays, I begun to reminisce of people from my past.    Reflecting, I realize that life experiences have  enriched me greatly in so many ways.  Dignity is not only of a friend I lost touch with,  but also a personal, favorite painting that went to another home. Fond memories.... gone but not forgotten.
