May 20 Why I haven't been posting

Hi Everyone
Just thought I would write a note to tell you why I have been absent from posting. 2 of my daughters had some serious stuff happen to them this last week. My 16 year old was in a car accident and totalled her car, thank God she walked away without a scratch. There must have been many angels watching out for her. My 19 year old had a tonsilectomy the 11th and ended up having an emergency surgery this weekend due to complications. She is doing fine now thank God again. I have been doing a lot of praying lately! So my post today is to hug your loved ones and tell them how much they mean to you!

Hopefully I will get back to posting paintings after the Memorial Day weekend.

Take care and be safe,
Toni

I guess a strong wind went through and blew it down, how sad! Iowa loses over 100 barns a year...it is always disheartening to see one go.
