Some have asked how Natalie and I are these days. We're fine. Overweight, deaf, and diabetic still. Natalie has largely recovered from spinal Meningitus, but will probably take another 6 months to a year to be back to 95% of what she was before. We are still uncertain as to what the new total medical bills will come to. Can't get blood from a stone, and this stone is particularily short of dollars.
Shannon is in his new assignment in Japan, but we haven't heard from him or the family since they moved. We are hoping he will stop off here for a short visit toward the end of the year when he goes back to Washington to brief the big brass. Kris and Michelle are still adjusting to being parents. Kris started to post baby photos and remarks at his blog site, but hasn't posted anything for over a week now. They were going to fly up to Washington State for her brother's wedding, but the doctor was able to convince them that might not be a wise thing to do with a baby only a month old.
Here are my three submissions to the New Mexico State Fair that were rejected. REJECTED! Oh well, there are at least four more exhibitions left in 2006, and these paintings may do better in a different venue. Actually, at the moment I'd almost rather just knock the price way down and sell them out of the studio. Currently, I have about 75-80 pieces for between $30-$900. A lot of folks stop and shop, and that's a good thing. Unfortunately, even with "give away" prices I'd starve to death if we had to rely on art sales.
