Since my retirement from my "day job" on March 30th things have been quite exciting.  I've  
  • Visited Frank Lloyd Wright's Pope-Leighey House and had high tea with a friend at the Ritz - first time for both
  • Signed up for iContact (like Constant Contact) and developed first draft of the Artists' Undertaking Gallery newsletter (where my work is available)
  • Spent about a bazillion hours looking for a new display unit for the Gallery - still haven't found the perfect one yet
  • Completed taxes -not exactly fun, but something that had to be done
  • Met with the VA PMC Guild Board and discussed upcoming programs
  • Was elected 1st Director (in charge of Programs) for the Northern Virginia Handcrafter's Guild
  • Visited the Smithsonian Craft Show for the first time
  • Plus a lot more
Granted some of these items are geeky, but that's just part of me.  I have also begun working on the concept for a new line of jewelry, so stay tuned.

While I do miss the daily interaction with my colleagues and friends from my old job, there are so many things I want to do.   My "To-Do" list keeps getting longer every day.  Every time I complete one item, I think of three more.

Did you update your website as well? I love it! It is so clean and polished looking!

Happy retirement to you! I hope us having lunch someday is on your list somewhere too! After May 7/8 I can meet on a weekend!

My busy busy busy friend!

Thanks Christine! I bet it looks familiar.

You actually ARE on my list! If I don't talk to you before May 7th, have a great show!
