Did I miss a blog post yesterday? Hmmm - losing track of time. I've been painting a lot - getting ready for the miniatures show at Sorelle. What I really need to do is to paint some big ones to sell during the holidays......workin on that. In the meantime, I'm in the groove - having done 12 paintings in the past week. I'm considering having an open house at my home in early Dec. to try to sell some paintings and prints. I really could use some cash right now to catch up on medical bills and pay for my alternative treatments which aren't covered by insurance. I just don't know if I have the time to pull it all together.
Went to my accupunturist yesterday, and discussed my diet. I suggested that I be strict with the diet for 6 days a week, and cheat a little on the 7th - a glass of wine, a little chicken or dessert, etc. He kind of felt I would undo in a day what I worked so hard for all week. Hmmmm. I have to sit with this for a while. If I never eat a piece of cake or have a glass of wine, that will be suffering for me. That just doesn't sound healthy. I'm working on some recipes where I can still have dessert with no sugar (sugar substitutes are a no no too). I called a doctor in Saratoga that has a regular practice in Glens Falls, and a holistic practice in Saratoga. One is covered by insurance, the other isn't. What is wrong with this world? We'd save our entire health care system if we embraced integrative medicine. Anyway, I'm hoping I can use her as my GP on the insurance side, and use her to moderate my alternative therapies. So maybe she will have some insight on the issue of sacrificing joy for the sake of your health. I think a compromise is probably best. I know this won't be easy - but I still think it's the best way.
Off to a memorial service for a lovely lady from church, Ruth Dunn. She will be missed. She used to sing tenor in the choir!!!
Have a great day everyone.
