A Moment of Reflection

@louannwarren @randystreat @amyk @shutterbug49 @ludwigsdiana @dutchothotmailcom @monikozi @wakelys @Dawn @nicolecampbell @lesip @cjphoto @caddick @bkbinthecity @gijsje Thank you all for you kind comments. For those of you who asked we were actually at the doctor because he had overdone it on the week end and thought he might have reinjured his hand. Everything is good though and he is still working on recovery exercises

[summerfield]

how is the hand?

[katy]

@summerfield slowly getting better! thanks for asking

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Compelling portrait! I hope he's reflecting on ways he can slow down just a bit so that hand keeps on healing.

[Terri]

He is probably looking down at his hand and thinking when he get back into that amazing workshop!

[Diane]

Nice portrait. Glad to hear his hand is healing.

[katy]

@olivetreeann LOL! He should be but I doubt he was!
@madamelucy I think at this point he was hoping that he hadn’t I made things worse.
@eudora Thank you, Diane. That’s so thoughtful of you.

[PasadenaRose]

I absolutely love this!! It's suitable for framing!

(surprise! ;-) )

[katy]

@pasadenarose Oh my goodness! Long time no see! How exciting to hear from you. I hope everything is well with you and does this mean you are going to start posting again? Thanks for your kind words.

[PasadenaRose]

Thank you, Katy.
Things are pretty darned good. I retired in May, so I am now a lady of leisure. :-)
I'm still not used to it, but I'll just keep working at NOT working until it becomes 2nd nature. LOL
I would like to start posting again, but I'll have to wrap my brain around the whole idea because it's been so long. I'm also planning a move out of state, probably by the end of the year, but I'm not obligated to anything except my own willingness to get off my buttocks and do it. LOL
So even though I probably won't start posting anytime soon, I will be popping in when I can to look around. I sure was happy to see that you're still here!!

[katy]

@pasadenarose congratulations on the retirement! You will adjust quickly and then will wonder how you EVER got anything done when you were working. Baby step with posting. Set a small goal of once a week or two weeks at first just to get your feet wet. Are you moving to Alabama?! (she said hopefully) I am so glad you here you will be popping in from time to time!
