 <\/p>\n

This\u00a0 colorful artwork is\u00a0 from my year-long work on\u00a0 STRATHMORE post cards as my canvas.

During 2024, I make one\u00a0 artwork on a Post Card each day.
I also write a poem each day that I place on the back of the post card next to the address where the post card will be sent.
I send out SIX original, one-of-a-kind post cards each week, to a fellow writer\/artist friend in Ada, Michigan.

Carol Farnsworth\u00a0 sends six post cards a week, with art and poetry, to me. <\/span><\/p>\n

At the end of this year, we will begin to compile a book of poetry and art. Yes, it is an enormous project to tackled by two blind women! However, we are now in the final third of the mailing process of our cards. Things are going well, and we are dedicated to this unique project.

Carol and I do six a week, taking Sunday off as a rest day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please visit Carol at her blog –\u00a0 Blind on the Light Side<\/a> – for lots more information.<\/p>\n

Let us know what you think, please.<\/p>\n

We would love to hear from you with any suggestions or bright\u00a0 ideas for us.<\/p>\n

Blessings are Always<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cBlessings\u201d\u00a0 arrive in my mail box, via\u00a0 telephone, or\u00a0 through my computer.<\/p>\n

Some are financial blessings that I did not know were coming to me.<\/p>\n

I receive awards and sales, for my books, writings and artworks.<\/p>\n

Some days I am invited out to lunch, or simply to go for a walk in the park with a friend.<\/p>\n

Blessings come to us all the time if we are open to them.<\/p>\n
