Been away again, and oh boy (and I have to apologize for this will be a messy post, my mind is all over the map right now). Fall came and its almost at its end, only few brave leaves are still hanging on to the branches, but soon even they will fall down on the ground and then its not long before snow comes.

Last half of this fall has been anything but easy. First came a nice fall rainstorms that was followed by our basement that flooded... I have been ripping out drywall and carpet, cleaning endless stuff this way and that way. Things do happen, and Mother Nature is something we cant change and I don't mind doing hard labour and swinging a hammer around, after all I do have Viking blood in me, I just wish my joints felt the same way. I have had huge problems with them, and still undergoing different tests and doctors appointments, and hopefully soon I can start going forward with all of this. AND then as icing on the cake, we all have been hit with some kind of virus one way or the other. So in between playing a nurse and vet (yes vet, even poor Charlie got hit with a nasty K-9 virus, he walked around sounding like an old T-ford trying to start), I also had to fight my own viruses.
Cough, snort ugh!!!! I did find something good in between, I found quiet time (see, when I got sick, everyone else were all better again and went back to school and work). I painted a little bit in Moleskine book and I started a small project with printing (all done in between scooping up water and taking stuff out to the curb).

Now, with the foundation fixed and walls down (will get someone to come in and put up the new walls, my hammer swinging days are over for this time) I will do some painting for an upcoming art show/sale in November. And before I forget, I would like to do something this November for my blog (already did a little bit of changes, felt like it needed it), but I want to do something for you my dear blog followers, visitors and fellow artist friends. After all November is my 2nd year anniversary for my blog... More coming soon!!!
Until then, Happy fall to all of you and I hope you're able to stay virus free.
Cheers,
Mari
