A little OCD today

 Here are a couple of my new hats. I wore the black one at our last Art Ventures luncheon. However, the weather is still too warm for hats unless they are straw. I just cannot do straw hats after Labor Day nor wear white shoes or pants. I guess it is a true Southern thing. 
 Prince was told by his mother that I was decorating for fall so he came home with these adorable little turkeys for me. Prince is always surprising me with little gifts of love. I would rather have his surprises than to get a big item at any time. 
 I had misplaced my original copy of Mary Beth's photo(see photo above)  that she let me have to paint but now I have found it in to  reprint it so I might finish the large canvas I started . I had my small 8x10 painting of this subject displayed in the living room and was enjoying it before I give it away at Christmas BUT had to go buy another frame after the cleaner were here. I dusted this place for over 25 years and never in those years did I incur as much breakage as when they show up. I guess I need to start looking for someone else to clean if this breakage continues. I will make some photos of the paintings for y'all after I finish and put them on the blog. Thus comes the sad news, for almost 3 weeks I have been unable to paint as  my back was not up to par. I have given my therapist the nickname, Mr. Paint since his real name gives you the image of lots of different colors. I think it is poetic timing for an Artist to have a therapist whose name reminds you of lots of paint.  Anyway, I have been  going to PT to try and get the ole arm back to painting mode. The background story is I suffered for 3 days without pain pills, then I remembered I had some for arthritis   pain the  doctor had prescribe back in the Spring. I tried them for almost 2 weeks as I feared it was NERVE. After finally taking in my doctor's shingle, I went to the real doctor and he sent me on my way to the therapist advising it was a pulled muscle. Well I am off to do my exercises and y'all wish me luck because I cannot recharge my batteries without painting. 
THE KITTY JUSTICE IS I DO NOT EVEN NEED SHOES TO DO THE BACK EXERCISES.

Lovely two hats! Your husband seems to be a real prince in his attitude.
Physical Therapy can be very beneficial if it's done properly. Feel soon better and resume your painting work!
Oh so sorry, hope the exercises help.

As I told my MIL when they arrived "you can never have too many hats, shoes or jewelry. I wish people dressed up again like in the early years but alas most are just slobs. Just go sit anywhere and watch the public and you will agree. Peace
