Another Treasure, Painter, and Painting

So temps in Nashville this

week are going to be hitting

the charts. For Wed (today)

they are saying actual temp

(not the feels like) will be hitting

100 plus. 

I have found that getting out

in the bright light and the 

heat does not feel good on 

my stitches so I will be staying

in yet another day (Monday).

Moving on~

I went through a couple

of small boxes that I pushed

into the corner of the 

living room. I felt I needed

to do something.

As going through those I

ran across this.

When I was 17 I worked at The

Hermitage (home of Pres Andrew

Jackson) in the gift shop. I loved it.

That would be the first customer 

related type job I had. I worked with 

Mrs. Francis Cook, Irene Lane (boss),

Lucille Vantrease, Mary Sue (can't

remember her last name) and Sammie

Sisco (mother of the guy I dated for about

3 yrs). I loved these ladies. 

Anyway, the handkerchief above came

from Mrs. Cook. Her and her hubs traveled

to Belgium and she brought me this back.

Yes, I have held onto it all this time. 

I have a friend that lives

in Knoxville Tn, about 2 hours

away. He is clearing out his

house and considering the

move back to Nashville. He

packed this up and sent it 

to me for painting my furniture

and other crafts. 

Can't wait to give it a try.

Next, in a couple of weeks

I am to hold and teach 

a paint class at James

and Julies place for Julies

bday. She wanted to do 

angels. So we picked two

for the group to paint from.

Julie wanted to do this one...

And she wanted me to pick

the second one. Searching

PINTEREST last night 

I ran across this one.

I loved the drawing so I 

decided we would do this

in paint.

So there are the two that I will be

teaching. I also allow my folks

to paint whatever colors they

want to use. They do not have

to stick with what I have done.

Now as I sit here and look

around I know need to get up and

clean up the mess I made

yesterday as I went though

boxes! Are you like that when

going through stuff or cleaning,

you make a bigger mess? I am 

horrible at it. Then I get it all

out and unpacked, in stacks

according to what room it needs

to go to....and I am worn out.

Then it sits there and if it sits

there long enough it gets thrown

back in a box or basket and gets

all mixed up again!!!

YIKES......have a good day.
