 2GN2S ...

A special treat! I emailed Washington friend, artist, PHD to check on how she is doing? I hadn't heard in a while and I had been thinking about her a lot.

 

And I got back a speedy reply. It was so sweet and funny, I asked if I could share it on my silly blog. Dorothy said yes. "I am so happy to have your note!  I still read you everyday and so appreciate the intimacy and beauty and warmth of your sharing.  Love the grandhunks, you and your arts, dogs and Lady Gaga - all of it . . ."

"This aging thing is challenging - and the doomsday world is scary BUT I still feel energized by creating and by the nature around me. When I’m discouraged or achy I just make a foolish collage - have fun sticking my face into unusual bodies :) see below. Warmly, Dorothy"

 

 

 

 

 

Then a second e-mail. "Sure - you are welcome to share my pix in the blog. Here's a bunch more of them - use any that amuse you - I laugh at them myself. Carry on my friend, Dorothy"

 

 

Of course I have used every one. Don't you love her great humor and wisdom? Inspiring! Perfect!

Thank you Dorothy, my hero!
