This is from Janet - one of the people who keeps MrW very confused. My art and blog people include Patty, Janet, Jan, and JeanR. MrW has been unable to distinguish between anyone whose name starts with J. He's pretty good on JeanR - since he has met her, in person, dropping me off where she lives - so he can picture her in a location. The others confuse him. I made a point of introducing him to each one with the idea that he'd figure out a way to remember which one was which one.
As I finished up everything for the ofrenda - I realized that it would be fun for my 12 helpers to meet up at the museum and view the finished project together. I set up a time - and I included a couple other friends who are art-friends - and it seemed a little rude to not invite MrW since he had been very involved in delivering the nichos to the museum. That's another story.
During the years that I taught at the museum, there was a Janet who was so much fun. She joined the calligraphy guild and we still exchange holiday cards. I invited her to the gathering of artists. And then, out of the blue - another artist friend who had moved away - but recently moved back to Des Moines - emailed, asking if we could get together - and of course, her name is Janet. And my husband was well acquainted with her through career stuff.
That's a lot of Janets and Jans. Their visits were spaced out so MrWilson didn't actually cross paths with any of them.
Janet's envelope has me pondering more versals for my Nov and Dec envelopes. I'll be back in Des Moines on Thursday and not sure if I will get my combined Nov/Dec mailing done.
