THOUGHT FOR THE MONTH
"You can have all the energy you need! Sure, more sleep and regular exercise work wonders—but there’s a faster good-for-you way to refuel. The secret? Letting go of any frustration, disappointment, worry and regret that’s dragging you down. Release them and restore your energy stores!!“

Hi
Painters!
REMEMBER,
the
Board would like to hear from you all regarding what you’d be
interested in painting this year, what class you’d like to teach
and what office you
would like to run for in next year’s elections. IF WE ARE GOING TO
KEEP OUR
CHAPTER WORKING AND GROWING WE NEED ALL OUR
MEMBERS TO
PITCH IN AND ASSIST. Thanks,
ladies.
Our
blog site has all the great upcoming classes listed. Be sure and
check for what
classes you would like to attend and sign up.
Heidi
England’s seminar is fast approaching. If you would like to
attend, be sure to
check with Tirzah at 801-825-2660 or 801-336-7900) and get your
reservation
in.
Haven’t
we had a beautiful winter so far? The only trouble is we need to begetting
some snow in the mountains in order that we won’t be short of water
this summer. Some of the ladies have daffodils and other flowers
blooming in their yards already. An almost unheard of happening so
early.
Leaving
for Vegas soon, so maybe we’ll see some of you there. Keep
Painting, ladies and be happy.
God
Bless,
Gloria
