A small painting and a bed weekend

Working on an acrylic painting over a print, a portrait of my husband, some folk stamps and a medieval love poem: "You are mine, I am yours, you should be sure of that. You are locked in my heart, lost is the key, you shall always be inside." Size: 8x12"

On Friday afternoon, I started rotating. An attack of vertigo, my form of Migraene. I tried a tranquilizer, but it did not work more than "I still have the vertigo, but I don't care". My husband took care of me in the best way you can imagine. Shopped, cooked meals. I had to ring my brother whose birthday we wanted to celebrate on Saturday, and call off. We'll be going there another day, maybe next weekend. I was quite disappointed, I missed an opportunity to see my nieces and nephews and grandnieces. WHY JUST NOW?? -- The vertigo was gone last night, I'm okay now.

The new piece is very striking, you are are never afraid to experiment. I just read the update on J's work situation, sounds as if once again his employers are making the wrong decision out of shortsightedness.

Oh Eva, this latest piece of yours is magnificent! I just love all of the color!!!!
So sorry to read about your vertigo. I'm glad that your hubster is there to care for you. I can sympathize with you about the vertigo, as I have had the same problem for several years. The unpredictability of the attacks was what I hated the most...as if I would actually make an appointment to have an attack of vertigo! Anyway, I'm glad that you are better, and hope that you can enjoy your family next weekend.
Take care!
