Hello and Guest Post

Hello Hello Hello!!
How are you?  I am missing you so!
I am doing well.  I still haven't heard from my results yet from my monitor but hopefully this week I will.  I have been feeling better but still have small episodes every now and then.  
I have been painting alot and loving the therapy that it gives me.
Here are a few that I finished.





Again these are still from the step by step book by artist Jaqueline Penney, but for my next painting and I am stepping out on my own!
OOOOOOOOOoooooooo!!!!  ;)


We have been busy with kid things again, which is good and the kids are loving it!

I just wanted to pop in today to say hello and to let you know that I am over at  A Sort of A FairyTale with my house tour.  Stacey is so sweet and while you there, take a look at her home, it is so pretty and she has been working hard.

Anyway, I hope you are all well and enjoy the rest of the week!
I can't believe that May is already here, I am so excited for summer!!!

Hugs!!!

Hi Michelle, I am visiting from A sort of a fairytale. Where in Michigan do you live? I live in South Bend, IN. My goal is to move over to New Buffalo in the next 5 years, all the kids will be done with college and on there own by then. Not sure what treatments you are going thru, but I pray your doctors are taking good care of you. I'll be following :)

You're Back!!! At least for a little bit...

Your paintings are beyond beautiful. Truly, they are.

Castles Crowns and Cottages said...

Good morning precious one!

Well Michelle, it is only a matter of time I believe, until you find the right moment to start an Etsy. Your talents are apparent and I believe that GOD opens the doors for us and opens our HEARTS and minds to possibilities that we never thought possible. I look at your work and it is so obvious that you have a gift here. It is only a matter of time.

BLessings to you and thank you for visiting me; I have truly missed you.

Anita

Found you thru Stacey's home tour - it's amazing! Love your art too - makes me want to pick up a paint brush again. Can't wait to see what you do next.

Sorry to hear you haven't been doing well - hope things are better.

Hi Michelle...I've been thinking about you. Hope you're doing well :)

Simple Home said...

I haven't been blogging (or visiting) lately either, so I didn't know you'd taken off. It's been good for my family too. I'm trying for once a month posting, and visiting about the same. Instead of being on the computer most evenings, my hubby and I have started walking and spending any spare time we have, together. It's wonderful :) Enjoy!
Blessings,
Marcia

Simple Home said...

Also, I love your paintings. Which Jaqueline Penney book are you using?
blessings,
Marcia
