Things have been so crazy lately, I never get on here anymore.  I am teaching art to 12 kids ages 6-14 and we are working on the glaze sessions of the pottery, the middle portions of the drawing projects, and just starting the final painting projects for the local Fair exhibit.  I am now a 4-H Art Leader in a new 4-H club.  I could drop with exhaustion after each time we meet.  It is twice a week for 4 hours!  The kids are all good and keep me on my toes constantly with help requests that turn into discovery guided demos.  It is such a rewarding experience!  I have lost approximately 6 lbs. just running up and down my stairs to answer the phone, the door, or to get the dog out of the way for the next group of students!  We'll see if it stays off...

Garden alert:  I have bush cherries!  Nanking bush cherries all ripe for the picking...about 10 ten foot tall "bushes" loaded with cherries!!!  HELP!  I must get them processed immediately or sell them some how... the farmers market might be the trick...I could put my 4-H members to work and we could sell them at the local Farmer's Market.  So much to do- so little time.  Gotta go.
