Well, I am not a blogger

Sunday, June 10, 2012 @8:22:58 AM

Perhaps it requires more discipline than I have, perhaps fewer  duties than I have, but I have obviously not kept up with blogging.  Facebook is easier, I think.  In the over-a-year since the last entry, I have:

• Taken my son to Israel for 6 weeks (due to requirement that I use up all back SSDI pay, and the unlikelihood of my ever being permitted to save to do this again),
• Developed several different exhibits from my work, with good reviews
• Developed a pair of books about including people with disabilities in faith community, A Part or Apart?  Its website is http://www.a-part-or-apart.com.
• Begun to face the wonderful dilemma of how to get my art to places outside Minnesota that want to show it
• Had to start dabbling in marketing.....ideas or assistance welcome.  One of those less desirable aspects of my autism is not really understanding how to market to people so they will actually BUY work.
• Helped my son start to narrow the gap in his math skills - Teaching Textbooks worked beautifully for that. (Unsolicited kudo)
• Continue to struggle with the "System" which could in itself be a full time job
• Expanded my line of cards and mugs to include some fun panoramics and other images of Israel - http://www.cafepress.com/janesprints is the web site.

I guess my failure to come here and blog can be excused.
