home again, eager to get as much work done as possible so i can go back for longer next week.
try to do a painting every day of each neighborhood.

i showed mrs virgin and aunt debbie the pictures and my paintings, and they were both very strong. mrs virgin had shown tears before, but she didn't this time. she said she was surprised by herself that it was actually quite a relief. she was glad.
they still didn't want mr dick to see, even though when they told him that it was happening he said "it's about time."
i think he could handle it if he wanted to see them, but they are concerned. it's hard to face even after this long. and they think seeing the house in the first place is what gave him the stroke.
but now they can save the insurance money and can focus on their new house, which they are very excited about.






this afternoon i go to a new iberia wedding. rockon.
