New Art
This lovely picture arrived a few days ago from Rob (my dear ex-son-in-law in Indiana). It's not the first time he's sent a wonderful surprise my way for no particular reason and I'm always overjoyed but sad that he's not closer so I could give him a hug. This reminded both of us of the family trip we took to Italy in 2001when we walked down streets that looked exactly like this one, even with the cat. I was delighted and had it hanging on the wall within minutes of receipt.
We have a variety of art preferences in our family, but the most significant difference is between my son Mark and me. He prefers abstract art and mostly has paintings/pictures that don't look like any identifiable object. He teases me that I don't have anything that doesn't have a cat in it, which is almost true. I love landscapes and trees and I also have a "rodent" gallery which is mostly cute mice pictures. I have at least 60 pictures hanging in my apartment and I would be willing to bet that nobody will be fighting over who gets which one after I die. Well, maybe one or two.
Lizzie and I spent the day on the couch. I didn't have much of a reaction to my second shot but I was a bit tired so I took her advice and napped along with her. Lizzie's in Extra.
