Love the adulting sayings. Folk art is so fun!! Not everyone loves it, so it's nice to know you do! The museum where I worked did several folk art exhibits over the years I was there. Faith Ringgold is one of my favorites. She does more quilts than paintings. http://www.artnews.com/2016/03/01/the-storyteller-faith-ringgold/Terri Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15333024343069943295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600608370084874699.post-46260496873003224712018-01-17T21:29:18.715-05:002018-01-17T21:29:18.715-05:00Just dropped by to say hi, I have taken many holid...Just dropped by to say hi, I have taken many holidays in winter, winter can be nice, I don't l ike beaches much at an time of yearJo-Anne's Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11418152399382818709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600608370084874699.post-47313878272122810932018-01-17T19:56:10.859-05:002018-01-17T19:56:10.859-05:00Visiting you today from the Hodgepodge .... there ...Visiting you today from the Hodgepodge .... there is a T-shirt in a local store here that says, "I can't adult today."

I couldn't find a Jim Harrison one for 2018, unfortunately, so I had to settle for one with girls on it instead of old barns.

I am loving it! We got a bit of snow, enough to cancel schools and slow the pace of everything and I'm enjoying it. The lake is so pretty with the trees dressed in white. Supposed to be really cold overnight so I'm thinking tomorrow morning may be icy and another day out of school.
