update:
have had a nasty cold, maybe bronchitis for the last couple of weeks….been miserable!  …look like one of those commercials for sinus/cough/sneezy/runny nose remedy…
I will continue to lay low til I turn the corner…then maybe I can get some images up of the paintings I did for Christmas…until then, warm New Year wishes to all of my blog readers!!  …hmmmm, think i’ll go get a warm cuppa tea right now!!
