We have the rights to bare arms! Cook Cty. does't think so

This is a gun I did last fall...if my friend and client Jeannie had a gun she might have been able to save her self from her Grandson that tried to strangle her, smother her, then she kick him in the groin...then he knifed her and set her on fire for her $7,800 settlement????????????????? She died...stupid, stupid stupid stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!! She was god fearing woman I miss her already!!! Yes a gun better than a cane to defend yourself with...A gun for Jeaninne!!!

Today is our fourth anniversary!

I met my James in Boston, in May of 2003, I was in Boston for the weekend, just getting on with life as My Husband Wayne had just passed away in early April. I saw this guy starring at me on a trolley. I got off at the Freedom Trail and by the time I got to The US Constitution, (a ship), he asked me to take a picture of him in front of it. He took one of me as well. We talked for a bit when he revealed that his wife of 38 yrs. had passed away April of 2000. He asked me to dinner, and I reluctantly agreed. I told him I wasn't ready to date. At dinner he told me you prayed and God sent me. Oh boy what a line. Long story short he asked if he could call me when I felt like dating. In July he called asked me to go out and I told him I wasn't dating yet. I told him about a trip I was taking to San Francisco the next week. He asked where I was staying, and showed up there...didn't think I should be alone. Well our first real date turned out to be a wonderful week long. He proposed in November and we were married in Vegas May 15, 2004. This is a picture of us from The Berman Center, we did a pilot show for Dr. Laura. I guess we were to happy of a couple for us to be in her Showtime program...lol. Much love to all.

Survivor Dancer

This is a piece I created last spring...She traveled in August to many Y-Me functions. They actually wanted me to donate the piece to be hung in there Chicago Y-Me office. As I created her, I asked my Husband James how do I shape her breasts? He added her breast after I went to bed. His Wife of 37 yrs. had survived her Breast Cancer in the late 80's and she loved to dance, said it remind him of her. So I let the painting stand as a statement to survivors to live their lives. Patricia died in 2000. I turned her on Photobucket...not showing at present...lol.

St. Louis last weekend.

We went to St. Louis to catch up with my Daughter, (who lives in Phoenix, AZ) she was in a wedding in Nashville, TN on Saturday.

What fun we had the road trip unremarkable (no traffic) the city was awash with Cub fans! In for 3 games with the Cardinals. We stayed at The Hilton at the Park. Was beautiful hotel, but they were full to capacity and our play was not very pleasent.

Anyway a photo from St. Louis...From the night life.
