Nicky is our printmaker friend in St. Louis. It looks like a fried egg to me and I'm a big fan of fried eggs. This is the first print from Nicky that is not an animal and it's very pleasing to the eye. I'd frame it and hang it if I were not in the deaccession portion of my life. It will be in a folder - waiting for me to fall off my perch and then my survivors will follow directions on sending my treasures along to the designated recipients. I'll leave you all in suspense on whether they will return things to the people who sent them or if they will travel to some other place.

Is there such a thing as *too much planning*?
Yes. Planning can interfere with getting started. That's called procrastination. I have a vivid memory of yammering on about something in a class and paused as I was talking all around the topic and needed a concise way of making the point. A student said, "All things in moderation."
Bingo.
But then I ask myself - is there ever a time when there is too much moderation?
Is this getting too complicated?
Maybe I'll have an answer tomorrow.
