The last of the month is always a bit busy for me with CTAC meetings and committee meetings and changing out the gallery from one show to another. We got it all done with only one little hitch. Earlier in the month we had had Behnaz Sohrabian back into our gallery to do a two hour demo. We like to have something in the gallery to bring people back in during a show. Behnaz had been a no-show at her own meet-and-greet, which was very disappointing, but she is a really good artist and we had already asked her to do the demo. She had agreed to do the demo for $400. There was no way we could break-even on the demo, but we went ahead and had it. We might have well saved our money. For two hours she painted and she had us remain all very quite, because she needed to concentrate. She did not talk about her art or tell us anything about how she did things. When I asked her to explain some things, she told me pretty much that my question was bothering her and she would talk to us at break. Yeah. I wanted to leave then and there, but I hung in. She did paint a beautiful painting of a young friend of mine whom I had talked into modeling for us.
On a better note, The grandkids came and spent the night last weekend. It was wild times at the Lazy B! We ate hamburgers, watched "The Cat from Outerspace" movie, and put everyone to bed. GBN3 did not sleep, but roamed the house. He was a mess the next day - worn out and grumpy. We made waffles and played some more. I was worn out when they finally went home.
Memorial Day was quiet. We worked on a new chicken tractor for the six chicks Toby bought. Tuesday and Wed, I gave the Iowa Skills test to 11 homeschoolers. Once again I was worn out. Plus, I wasn't feeling well. Thinking that it was just sinus, I continued on with my usual. But I kept getting worse. Today I went in to the Urgent Med and they tested me for Covid and pneumonia. I was negative for both - YAY! They gave me a shot in the buttocks and prescribed me some meds. Hopefully, I will be feeling better soon.
