Finally Catching Up!

Whew! It's so good to be back and to see you all again! I'm back with good news too - as you can see, I finally finished the other Jack Russell Terrier commission and both portraits were shipped to their owner today.

Also, my mother in law (who has been in and out of the hospital recently) has finally been released into an assisted living home where she can still have her independence plus there's always someone there to look after her. It has been a trial for my husband with her living so far from us but his sister is doing a wonderful job juggling her own family and work responsibilities and between the two siblings, Mom is doing well and recovering nicely from the broken rib she sustained in a fall out of her bed. We know how she values her independence but I think this fall has convinced her that she needs some kind of round the clock care available if she happens to need it.

I think I promised you some photos of our foxes and I will get those resized and ready for posting, hopefully for tomorrow. We haven't seen the the foxes recently and we were told that this is the mating season for them so they may be busy with their den and preparation for new babies. It would be great to be able to see the little ones but I imagine they'll stay hidden away until they're grown or nearly grown.

I think you're caught up with the most important stuff so I'll see you tomorrow!
