I introduce and wish to thank my friend\u00a0 Cecilia Arnold, who has worked for and with me for almost 20 years in a variety of fields from gardening, to house-cleaning, to art and administrative assistance.\u00a0\u00a0 In her former life before moving to Colorado, she was an art professor at Penland School of Arts and Crafts in North Carolina.\u00a0 We ran into one another the day after New Year’s at my favorite western store of all time, Goodman’s.\u00a0 – Hey, Notice the cell phone cover!<\/p><\/div>\n

Since the birth of my first child 36 years ago this month, I have often said “a woman needs a wife!” \u00a0 It wasn’t until 1994 when I moved into my Colorado home that I took my own “medicine.” \u00a0 When I have been able to afford it, I have hired my friend Cecilia who has been an invaluable asset to me as an artist, mother, gardener, home-maker and business woman.\u00a0 Cecilia has been nearly a “wife” – like a\u00a0 kind of “mid-wife” per se in that she has helped “born” many a project, many a plant and many a clean home!\u00a0 Ladies, I suggest you obtain a “wife” especially when you’ve got a lot going on – she’s the ultimate stress-reliever!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
