Okay, let me backtrack for the past few days since I haven’t been online… I went mainly to visit my aunt who lost both of her daughters, one to lupus, the other choked to death on food. I love her dearly and we have always been close so, it made sense to spend the holiday with her.
On my drive up I stopped overnight and spent the day with my niece living in Atlanta. I cooked them dinner before leaving for Ohio. She’s doing great, working on new drawings, completing a book, and her husband is also working on some new drawings and a comic book. Two artists they are.
I decorated the tree and cooked Christmas dinner. We spent the days before and after Christmas talking, watching TV, having a good time in each other’s company. It was a perfect Christmas!
I left to stop and visit cousins, also in Ohio, and see as many family members as possible. I did. It was also a great time. My cousin made two fresh apple pies and then we ate just about all of them. We left nothing but crumbs from her fantastic pound cake.
My cousin’s two girls wanted to do some Gap outlet shopping down in KY so, I went along and bought a couple polo shirts. We stopped, at my suggestion, at the Contemporary Art Center (Cincinnati) and ran into the handsome chrisglass coming down the stairs. We talked a bit and I felt good to have met him in person although it couldn’t have been planned better.
After breakfast with another aunt and cousins, we all headed off to home. Those cousins live in Alabama. I stopped in rural Georgia for the night with a friend of my aunt. She is a sweet lady. After another breakfast, I headed home.
I had the best Christmas in years. I called my dad when I got home because he wasn’t home for Christmas, he went to Calif. New Years should be quiet unless I get invited out tonight. Be safe and well everybody!
(p.s. I took some pic in the CAC and will have a little write up about it in Miamiartexchange.com later today, if you care to read it.)
