Thanks to both of you.
Jose---its funny you mention painting. I began painting and other crafts in 2003 when I returned from Israel. My mom was an artist and I didnt even know I had it in me.
But I admit I have not been able to paint much this past 6 mo except to help the grandkids with a few projects.

Your right--I need to start again and fight what I can only call a lack of motivation that I have not been able to shake.
