False Alarm

OK, so apparently my paintings have NOT yet been shipped. They are still being held hostage. Beginning to believe my ex is enjoying getting my weekly emails asking about paintings. As once they are shipped and I receive them, there will be no reason for me to ever contact him again. Not sure why he just cannot send me my work. Perhaps it is because he is just too busy with his little girlfriend no one is suppose to know about. SO just send them and you can go back to doing whatever you do with someone that age.

The gallery is still in limbo. The new contractor has not yet begun work. Hoping that tomorrow when I go in some of the work will be done that he said he would do over the weekend. He did assure me that everything could be done in a couple of weeks. That would mean we could definitely have our opening on May 14. Not official yet, but that is what we are aiming for.

I have hit the 30 lb. point in my weight loss. Only 50 more to go. God, how did I ever get so out of control. I figure I just kept shoving food in my mouth to keep my mouth shut. As I never could say what I was feeling in my previous marriage without having repercussions. There was always that long dreaded arrogant silence with an attitude that so said, How dare you say anything or complain...I give you everything...yes, everything but what I really needed...emotional commitment.

Went to an art exhibition last night. Had a great time in Lakeland. Then we all went to Starbuck's afterwards. I laugh as there was a time when after an opening I would have gone for cocktails, and almost did last night. But Starbucks was a good and safe alternative and it was great spending time talking about art and just stuff with friends. I saved the cocktail until I got home and shared it with my husband. Is this what life is like at 50??? I like it!!!
