I just do Etsy and art fairs for my fine art photography. Never really looked into consignment at local shops but should consider that once we get to Florida. Or perhaps I'll just hang it up! Not sure if I want to move all of my crap! Lol! I did ask our local Botanical Gardens where most of my floral pics were taken if they would want to carry my cards in their gift shop and was surprised when they turned me down!

Good job on the garage! I thank goodness for my pension and social security too. Hopefully I won't have to touch my other accounts for a while so they can recoup.

Tough situation with your friend but in all likelihood she will get over it. Try as best you can to put it out of your mind (I know that is easier said than done).

It usually rains through May in Massachusetts so we aren't going north until the end of the month.

Greetings all

Big sun here. The dogs are basking on the deck. Nice. A sure sign that summer is approaching.

Kudos to DD for going to the capital. There is a protest here at the courthouse and gallery members wanted to go so sub worker needed. My protest march days are over but I certainly root for those who step up. My own activism consists of letter writing.

Yeah CC it is easy to get roiled about a personal situation where you feel misunderstood. But it sounds like you have done all you can to clear up the misunderstanding.Yeah when you signed on to your board you did not plan on being a cop. People should consider whether this activity is really hurting anything - ie traffic, noise, garbage or whatever. If not, I say chill. I have seen my arts groups get all caught up in rules when there is no evil being prevented and no harm done. But that is me I guess - anti autocracy. Bet your friend eventually comes around after she faces the issue.

Hey Peps, garage cleaning counts as a work out!! Plenty of effort there.

Missed the gym yesterday as I took Poppy on the training walk. Will do today and also get to the studio. Yeah Paula, DH and I are both sleeved so half a restaurant meal feeds us both. Of course, DH is a serial snacker so he does not eat a lot at one time but munches all day long - exactly what we are not supposed to do.

Liz hope you don't get a cold. Elderberry zinc lozenges are my go to for such. I do think they work. Are those Allbirds shoes ones with actual ties or are they the step in ones with fake laces. I need real laces.

Gee Ann stay safe from the floods. Interesting that they don't want you to wash stuff due to drainage overload but good that someone is paying attention to that. Mother nature is a B----.

Paula do you have other markets for your art work besides ETSY? I assume you have looked into consignment at local shops. A large part of our gallery business is cards but we have a kind of captive tourist audience. We finally got a bar code scanner for our cards as there are so many and all the inventory codes took a lot of time to enter.

Not much else. Time to make some eggs and head out for today's adventures. Diane S
