10 Years!

Wow. It’s been 10 years since I blogged! So much has happened. Of course. I mean 10 years plus. 3,661 days including leap days. I have been using Facebook as a kind of diary but I think I’m going to start blogging again instead! I may even go back and add some older posts. Highlights. We will see! 

Today is the first day of the rest of the year!  This is us New Year’s Eve 2023! Happy 2024!!!

My alter ego... or something!

I am married to a musician, and have often thought how fun it would be to be on stage, playing music.  Well, about a year ago I took up the Zydeco Rubboard.  Zydeco music is so fun!  Last night The Bayou Boys, one of the bands my hubby plays with played at the Sonoma County Fair.  A nice little fair.  For the last few months, if I tag along for a gig, I get to get up and play with them.  Here we are last night.  So fun.  Yup that is me sitting and scratchin, second from right!  Just love to watch the kids dance.  There were lots more as the evening went on.  Be well!  Tj.

Creating art!

I attended a mini high school reunion.  6 of us girls, some who I hadn't seen in way too many years.  My dear friend Carolee hosted at her house and asked me if I would teach a little art class.  Hum... I had never done any art instruction before, but yea what the heck, I'll give it a try!  So I prepared by doing one little painting that I thought would be kind of easy to walk someone through.  Now understand, some of these ladies had not done any kind of painting since maybe grade school... or maybe finger painting with grandkids.  At first they were pretty reluctant, didn't think they could do it.  But they did, and pretty darn good too if you ask me!  

What a fun day!!  Love you ladies!  Be well... Tj.
