Sitting by the fire....

As I sit by my evening fire (every night as long as it's not raining) I first open up my conversation with God..for me, when I open up my conversation when I wake up, it doesn't end until I shut down for the day.   I first thank the lord for all my family and their blessed health, for my healing.   I sit by the fire because it is very calming, relaxing and quite. I hear the waves of the lake as they get pushed by the wind and then all at once about 10 RV air conditioners come on, and for me, causes anxiety, I had to leave my fire till it was quite again... Sorry, back to my day.   I love it when my fire pops...I don't know, maybe it's a light bulb for me.    I think about all the things I have felt and been through and I thank him for showing me an outlet!   How to survive and never quit!  Thank you, Bev Williams (mom) for the acrylics paint she gave me for Christmas.    I had told her in the past I wanted to try and paint, and she knew I would never go into Hobby Lobby and get myself!  LOL.  What's funny is now I am seen in there on a regular basis buying canvases and paints.   Of course, there are a gazillion different paint brushes so I always grab a couple to try out....for some reason a few weeks ago I purchased a sketch pad and some drawing pencils and charcoal, why I do not know!   I have never been able to draw anything in my life!    Seriously, it looked like a kindergarten students drawing. LOL again, I also remember filling up a piece of Notebook paper with small spaceships dot dot dot killing other ships and of course Asteroids!    Between, Buck Roger and Asteroinds it was easy to draw ships the looked like a paper airplane!   LOL.  That was Ms. Watson, 5th grade... Okay, I know I ramble....  So, I get home and try to start sketching what I want to paint...the first few went just as I predicted but as I paint, I find myself becoming better sketching.    I'll post a picture of my sketch today for my upcoming painting, as well as a few other pictures.    Anyway, back to my fire tonight, I was thankful for my brother Steven Talley and my nephew Connor Talley for bringing me some good firewood!   I've already gone through 3 cords of wood since November since I have moved the RV here...I will post a few pictures of my garage/studio..  If you look close you will see the piece I am working on to be on display at my Pain Management doctors office, at Baylor, Scott and White, Frisco, TX.    Dr. David Keelen.  One of my few people I consider an angel from heaven.   He helps people heal, but most of all, he sincerely cares about each of his patients care and well being.    Everyday, I thank god for him!  Talking about these things are another checkbox of healing that I am attempting by starting this blog! Below is Titled : 25 Years.. It is about half way completed and I am only showing on my blog.    When it's complete I will share with all social media.   I hope that my messages conveyed in my art are a blessing to everyone who is suffering, or recovering from an extended period of Chronic Pain, dependency or Invisible Illness.  Picture taken from my RV looking at my mediation station.   LOL   Don't Make fun of the $5 garage sale chair my youngest son bought from a neighbor a couple of years ago....love it for comfort!   When the recliner doesn't help I go to this thing and it is, for me, the best, to at least slow down the pain when it hits!     I ask for prayers because I believe they work!    Thank you, God Bless, here come the AC's again!    It was 81 degrees here in Texas today and muggy!   Gotta go!  Goodnight!
