On Wednesday I taught my first art class - a complete beginners class - to members of the general public. Whilst I have taught quite a lot of art classes it has always been to my art group so I know the people. So this is a very new venture for me. It was very scary but 8 people paid to come (I only had 8 spaces so it was full) and none of them had ever touched watercolour before. We made hand painted cards and they did really really well and wanted more. I set up another three classes - one a direct repeat of this one for the people who missed out - and another 2 (repeated) and one of the new ones is already sold out. (Sold out the same day)
I am thrilled
Yesterday I am fairly sure I broke a bone in my foot - one of the little bones running from my third toe. So stupid. I dropped my ipad. It is a big i pad pro and fell from the worktop end on onto my bare foot. The black bruise came out immediately - quite a considerable bruise - and we could both feel a little lump on the bone at the base of the toe. I can walk fine, though shoes hurt, and there is no point getting it checked as they will just tape it to the next toe - which we have now done. However today the toe is quite twisted so we watch and wait. Just from a simple dropped i pad. The good news is the i pad was fine!!
I have a few more pages from my travel journal to share ... they are out of order I'm afraid and typepad is still struggling with pictures so I'm not going to releoad them.
I have some new scrapping but I cannot share it yet other than this one page for a challenge
and this is my May summary page open and closed
Today I am thankful for
not damaging my ipad - just my toe
A successful class and the bravery to try it in the first place
being 10 years on, this week, since my first brush with cancer - a malignant melanoma removed 10 years ago.
