Dear Yogis,

I think I am winning on the power front – My electricity bill is $24!!!!  not $240, just $24.  The solar panels are working for me.  Battery next.

Today I am working in the garden in between doing a self-portrait for the exhibition at the Gallery.  I decided to make a patchwork of 12 coffee bags (a lot of prep required), and painting on that.  The background will be made from prints of my angel paintings.  I would like lots of time – and as usual don’t have it.

Thank you everyone who has visited my in house gallery – I am going to have an open studio every Friday evening starting at the end of this term (to include the holidays) because I just love it when you come here.  You look at the work, you understand what I am trying to say, and sometimes you buy my work – I love you.  Going out into the general public and being asked “how long did it take you to do this” as if it mattered,  is a nonsense,  and strains the patience.  Sid Nolan (who painted the famous Ned Kelly series) took 4 minutes to do some of the work that now sells for millions.

I have had the wasps removed again – every time the price goes up, but what can one do.  I want them removed by a firm with insurance, especially seeing they had to trample over the roof tiles.  I am exploring the possibility of insurance to cover the remediation as there is some damage on the ceiling from the wasp nest.  I will let you know if it is possible.  I am with a firm of insurance brokers called Insurance House in Bendigo, and I have been for about 15 years and my mentor the late Keith Allen referred me… I don’t know how long he was with them, but he was a millionaire, and a perfectionist.  Insurance House are always on the look out for the best insurances at the best prices.  If you are dissatisfied with your insurance go to them, ask for Mel Nicholson. www.insurancehouse.com

I was hacked on Tuesday evening, hence no newsletter on Wednesday.  Thank goodness it has been corralled (until the next time).  I don’t know how I would manage without my Techie! that’s being too simple, he is an expert, a computer engineer, not just “someone who knows”.

By the way – there are going to be some big changes on the yoga home front at the end of this term.  Watch this space.
