I’d like to thank my many friends for all the cards, phone calls, flowers and many words of love and support. They have helped me through all the long difficult days of the last few weeks. Jason, you are beautiful. The time you spent with me filling in the blanks of Joe’s life, the photo book you put together and the gathering of all of Joe’s friends from far and wide was so touching. The beautiful poem you wrote about Joe expressed so many things we were all feeling. The line that went “we only saw what we wanted to” expressed how I was feeling in such a simple yet beautiful way.
My concern for Luke continues, we are very much conected now and I will never give up on his recovery. THe battle with drugs and alcohol is a difficult one. I am powerless over it all but I do see so many that have overcome it, and I tell myself my child can overcome it too.
Today I’m back to a more normal routine. I have a bead class at 11a. David has 12 ladies coming to a special 2hr clay class at 12p. They will be invited to watch a bead demo too. Hopefully they’ll be inspired to become beadmakers themselves.
The E Lansing fair app went in yesterday via Zapplication. I’ll enter Charlevoix too, but that will be it for art fairs this yr. I think I told you I’ll not be doing Ann Arbor fair this yr. David is opting out of it too. I do love the travel to new cities and seeing all my art fair friends, but this economy is really getting bad at shows. The Kalamazoo show is coming up on Feb 28th. Nice to have a road trip. Thanks for checking in all, just wanted you to know I’m still here. Have a good day, Peace , BK~
