Even though it looks like my paintings will not sell this week. I'm not upset. I find myself almost having this perverse feeling of joy. Fairy on the Beach has gotten about 40 hits on eBay, while Kat and Cat has gotten about 30 hits. I like knowing that people have looked at my work. Since there were no buyers I feel happy and elated that I have ticked off buyers that somehow my work is very scary and revolutionary thus non-biddable. They just don't know what to make of it! :)
Also this week I learned that my father had not been out of bed for two weeks. It seems his arthritis is acting up again. Today I bought him Cosamin D-S which are supplements that aid in the rebuilding of joint cartilidge. He won't expect to feel any results until 2-4 weeks after he begins treatment. He is also still taking his pain pills. The brand I choose to buy for him was the exact same brand that has been used in government research. I have my fingers crossed that it will work. I hate to see him in so much pain. This time the arthritis is in his left shoulder and in his arms. he finds it difficult to grip objects. But luckily he can still feed himself. He says that he will be staying over my sister's house until he feels better. Previously he was living with my aunt but he says she was driving him crazy and he had to get out.
