(This painting seems perfect
for today.  And I like that it
went to live in
Texas with my friend, 
the artist Susan Carlin.) 

Today I saw this painting scrolling through my blog.  I went to
see my friends who meet for coffee every Tuesday if they're
not working, and I was definitely not awake enough after one
coffee.  So of course when I came home after a second delicious
cup of coffee at my friend's house I was thinking about
how much I love coffee.  This painting went to my wonderful
friend, the artist Susan Carlin, in San Antonio Texas years ago.
And I'm glad she has it.  

The day after Canadian Thanksgiving is a day when you need
coffee -- to get back on track. I drank at least four cups and
have been organizing, drawing and working on a new
painting most of the day.

If you celebrated Canadian Thanksgiving this past weekend I hope you
had a great time.  Steven and I had a wonderful dinner with our whole
family and two young guests.  So much fun.  And then of course tonight
-- turkey dinner #2.

Have a loving your life day.
