Ides of Mā

Today is an important date in the personal history of Bill. This day in 1988 I accepted the offer to relocate from the penal colony known as New York to The Great State of Texas.

That’s right. The small party of four (4) left Family, friends and all sorts of comfort zones for a whole new set of adventures, friends and now extended Family. In short, it’s ALL GOOD.

I have to keep pinching myself as a reminder that TODAY is Saturday. I could have been working at the Byron Nelson event here in town this week, even today, however now the ‘dear John/Thanks but No Thanks email was good news in disguide.

In two weeks the Colonial starts so the year is moving along.

Today I am spending some time on each and both of the commissions I currently have in-house. I have reasoned it out justifying that when I get one finished, I get PAID. Same with #2.

I have been emailing and texting my new student about the upcoming lesson. Working the details via email is working surprisingly well. I got a reply right after returning from the morning ride and when I sit to reply the first lesson should be 90-95% set.

The Sunday following the Galveston Art walk we will meet up somewhere mutually convenient, coffee or breakfast TBD and drive to a Maker’s Space in Magnolia (TX). Check that out, maybe reserve a two(2) hour slot and hit Woodcraft for a look see at tools she might need.

I completed the application for Artoberfest but couldn’t submit.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Promise not to laugh?

HAIL NO !!

First Born has my cc. I gave it to her late Saturday to pick up some take-out and didn’t notice I didn’t have it until I got home.

HAHAHA … I’M LMAOROF.

Well I’m glad you are getting a chuckle out of that at my expense. (bitch)

It could be here with the post today or Monday for sure so all I have to do is make the payment and wait for the jury to decide. Good news is they are to decide and inform successful artist candidates for participation 1 June.

Depending on the decision will set off another round of high level in strategic planning for both work projects and logistics. Or NOT.

I guess that’s about it from here for now.

Very low-key and relaxing policing the areas versus heavy lifting cleaning. I couldn't handle it. Think light tidying up as breaks from REAL work.

Chow.
