Due to my grandmothers declining health, I will be taking a brief hiatus from my daily painting. I found this quote that reminds me of my grandma. She's a beautiful, wonderful woman.I loved their home. Everything smelled older, worn but safe; the food aroma had baked itself into the furniture. ~Susan Strasberg

thoughts are with you.

Thinking of you. Loved the quote. Miss both of my my grandmothers.
Blessings to your Grandmother and you too! And a great quote that also reminds me of my own Grandmother. Will be thinking of you!
Oh Kim, I'm so sorry about your grandmother. I'll be here ready and waiting to see more of your beautiful work, and to talk to you my sweet friend, when you are ready to come back. :) But in the meantime, my thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family. *HUGS*
You will be missed! You and your family will be in my prayers and thoughts. Blessings - Linda
Th quote also reminds me of my grandma. And, even though she passed away in '71, I still remember the food (aromas): spare ribs, pearled onions w/ peas, red jello, chocolate covered caramels. My thoughts are w/ you and your family. New paintings will always be there later.
I'm sure it is time you will never regret. I help caretake my mother and know I will look back and be thankful for the extra time I've had with her. Keep a sketchbook with you and write down all your ideas for future paintings and journal a bit about your time with your grandmother?
J'ose espérer que votre grand-mère aille mieux... je lui souhaite un prompt rétablissement et je suis certaine qu'en votre compagnie elle va retrouver une certaine jeunesse...
gros bisous
Wonderful quote for a special grandma- she is lucky to have you- will be thinking of you- as someone else said, the paintings can wait:)
That's a wonderful quote. Grandmothers fill a unique place in our heart. We will be thinking of you.
Wishing you well - Grammies are special people.
Thank you for your well-wishes. I was so touched by your kind comments today. It's rough but a there is a certain comfort in being able to have this time to say good-bye.
Oh Kim..so sorry to hear about your grandma. She is such a wonderful and warm-hearted person and I feel honoured to get to know her personally.
My thoughts are with you and your family. Stay strong.
Kim,
this quote sums up the whole essence of a life ...
very beautiful!
desire that everything be restored soon! health for all...
Sorry to hear about your grandmother Kim, Take care and God Bless...We'll look forward to your return.
Wonderful quote, Kim. Take care and enjoy every moment. And journaling will be very cathartic.
I so understand! God give you strength and your family! Hopefully, Someday, you will be a grandmother and meanwhile your children are watching.
Kim,
This is a difficult time and my thoughts are with you. I miss my grandmothers terribly; one of them for twenty years now, and the other for eight. I was able to say goodbye to both of them, and that helped. I'm glad you have that chance, too.
Thank goodness for memories, old photos and loving family to reminisce with. May she go peacefully...
