Feeling like we've Climaxed....

It's the end of May and I feel like we've already had summer and are moving on to fall, but in reality it's still Spring for another 22 days. The reason I feel this way could be because I've been busy planning our wedding such as it was, a backyard wedding. The weather was glorious and Terry pulled through ordering tables and chairs, this pleased my Mom greatly! We organized pizza catering and we had so much help from Terry's sister and her husband! Honestly, if they weren't here doing all the little things in the kitchen... well, it wouldn't have been a total failure but it wouldn't have run nearly as smoothly. Thank you so much Tammy and Roy!!! We also had some beautiful flowers and arrangements made thanks to my son Brendan and his beautiful wife Carmelina! Thank you both! All of Terry's family made it out regardless of threat of airline strike and all the disruptions on the highways. I only invited my family that lived in the vicinity other then my boys and my Mom, and there were a few friends as well. This was our BIG event this year and we couldn't be happier, it feels a little surreal to me but we are slowly getting back into our routines that are bringing me down to earth.
Another couple of things that happened in May, kind of big in my world. I retired from my part-time job hairdressing at the seniors home! ...and then I had a big birthday. ...and on a sad note, we lost our beloved dog Benjigirl ...unexpected and very sad.

​A jam packed May this year, no wonder I feel like summer is over...lol.

What's coming up from my art life you say... well, I feel like I'm starting all over again as I've basically packed everything up to get ready for our event. But I did manage to sketch a vulture in graphite and I have pulled out my Cyantype chemicals again. (I did do a few table runners in fabric for the wedding) I will probably spend some time doing those when the weather is good.
I have put a box with flyers in it out near the road so dog walkers can get a gander at what I do... I need to put something else there to draw attention to it as only 8 have gone from the box. But for now I am thinking of my next BIG pencil drawing, I think something big that can't be rushed... this is harder then it sounds... stay tuned!
