July 28

I finished off my day on phones with CORE Physicians at 4. Thank God it's Friday!

I saw a post from Wendy Berry that she was giving away some of her books. I thought to myself, "I could get a book or two from Yoda".

I went over right after I got out.

Her husband, John, and son Noah were there. Wendy told me John's mother was moving in with them so she had to get rid of stuff.

I found a field book on medicinal plants and it felt like Mom was with me. I also got other books on plants and the courage to be yourself.

I saw some drums Wendy had made, one was from Elk hide and it spoke to me. She said she'd sell forc$250 so I agreed to pay her in payments and she let me take the drop and a drummer made of bear hide.

We agreed to get together soon.

When I got home I played the drum about half an hour at moms wildflower garden.

I took the books up to my art room after looking quickly through them.

I started to clean but reached out to Shannon Culpepper. The Focus 244 Gallery is switching my lighthouses out this weekend and entering World Travel. I was excited to show a few ireland pieces.

Michael will also be here this weekend so I need to clean.

When Dave came home and I told him what I had going on he said I really didn't need to do the photo stuff since I wasn't selling anything.

My heart sank. He doesn't get me.

For him, it's all about the money.....
