Each day that passes is filled with tasks, most working toward the common goal of cleaning the house. Each day sees the horizon shift, in a mostly more optimistic way. For that I am grateful. The power of gratitude, which I learned about in Wings Seminars. Thank you Mary for suggesting the helpfulness of Wings and for financing my attendance as well as my daughter’s (your step-daughter’s) attendance in both PES and Crossover. The things we learned during the weeks at Wings have made us more compassionate and trusting. I am thankful for your visits to me in dreamland, even though I missed the TBGO bus leaving a performance because I was relying on you to remind me to get on the bus. I guess I gotta be responsible for me. Good lesson.

Another week or two should see the craft-room emptied, cleaned and the start of the birth of the “Matting and Framing” room. I will continue to do the full time eBay sales, which is still more than a 40 hour week, but is getting “routine and cookie-cutter” in its methods. I still have time to add to the blog and probably work halfway through another day of our “travel adventures.”
Greta is doing quite well as an “off-leash” dog. I couldn’t be more pleased. When I went to the accountant’s office in McMinnville, I had to let her loose to go “spot-up” in the field next to his office because I couldn’t safely navigate there. She went and did her “spot-up” and came when I called her, jumping up about two feet to get back up to the level of the truck.
I’m going to have to wind back the eBay stuff starting in May. I need a 2-3 week period to make the fishing lures and prepare the camper and boat for my final “Odell Trip” in June. I’m thinking of taking half of May (50% cut in eBay), all of June and July off from eBay, cleaning, etc. Time for rejuvenation.
