Where has summer gone?

Every summer, as soon as school ends, I begin a creative count down until  school starts again.  This year that didn't go over too well because the count down became a little depressing  for some and my summer was extremely challenging.  My best friend's daughter died of lymphoma and it was downhill from there.  My summer was filled with sadness, health scares and stress. I was almost leaping at the chance to go back to work. Thank God I can find peace in my artistic talent and was able to have some solace in being able to reside in the tranquility of my craft. Today, i will begin to post my 52 days of summer..it's never too late.
