Reinventing myself

Living here in Oriental or having different life style has given me and my family an opportunity to reinvent ourselves. Three years ago this life began with a dream, also three years ago I said that I will never teach art and that I will never paint abstract.  Al I have to say is that: today, makes who you are tomorrow, so use today wisely. I love teaching art, students arrived. My client in town ordered some abstracts and she pushed me and took me out of my comfort zone, with amazing results. My friend Bonnie said, a good abstract is hard to paint and I agree. It takes life experience, and incredible conscience. Hopefully I do a good job for my clients, and they trust me enough to let me fill thier home with my art. Chris continues to work on the boat, there is never enough time in the day to do everything on the list. We had to extend our rent till end of November. Life raft came, we are trying to order solar panels, install arch on the boat, still waiting on some parts from France to finish rigging, and on and on. After November we plan to finally move the the boat, out new home and spend Christmas in the Bahamas. Oriental is beautiful and fun but more beautiful and fun things are waiting. Lots of boats are passing by through Oriental already making their way slowly South to the Islands. We meet many couples from all over the world telling cruising stories, everyone we meet is 

Extremely warm and inviting. Our children have blossomed, I posted them studying at the dining room table. Can't wait to show them more of the world.
