ReplyDeleteI like the definition of "making art."
I also like the dish-washing comic. :-p
MUST go to bed and try to get some sleep so I can face work tomorrow with a chipper and perky smile and a heart (?) full of joy, energy, and wit.
Hi Adam- Sounds like things are going well for Nepal this far. Sounds exciting! Papa P. had some good nights of sleep the last few days. Dad says he seems to be doing pretty well. He took a shower Sunday and had his hair cut by Karen yesterday. She said it was good to see him. He was the same ole Papa. She wasn't sure what to expect before she went but really glad she got to visit with them. She cut Nana's hair too while she was there. Haven't heard anything on the test results yet. When they do I will let you know. The food you describe in your post always sounds so good. Some of it sounds like some of the food being made on the food network that I tune into sometimes on TV. Hope all goes well with the visa. Talk to you soon. Love ya- Mom
