Grateful today for a dinner invitation with two couples we have not seen in awhile.

@lioness - you asked what I do at the glass studio. I used to work 4 days a week. We don't do glass blowing in the studio, but we do copper foiled pieces as well as leaded stained glass so depending on the day, I might cut work on the patterns, cut glass, assemble the piece, solder foil or lead, frame the piece or help with installation. Then, at some point I realized that I'm retired and didn't mean to work so hard! I cut back to one day a week and I generally help with the office duties now - paying bills, making deposits, balancing the books, etc. Occasionally I venture back over to the "artsy" side, but I'm pretty content on the sidelines. That's one reason this gift was such a treasure!

@gailb- I LOVE your painting of your husband. So much feeling is expressed. When I look at the painting, I think "That's someone I would enjoy talking to!"

@becsbuddy - Please show us a picture of your quilt! I quilt some, and we have other quilters in our group. Congratulations of finishing!
