Several days of cool rainy weather has put me in a fall kind of mood. It’s my favorite season, but not this part. I like the part with clear blue skies and crisp clean air, cool but not cold. And them of course there’s the brilliant display of colors. People travel all over the state to see the colors, but in New Hope with all of it’s mature hardwoods, we simply have to step outside. If you live in the Twin Cities you’re living in a hardwood forest.
Went to PT yesterday, I seem to be making progress. At this point I could live with the condition of my shoulder. It isn’t too painful, doesn’t disrupt my sleep and I can pretty much do anything with I need to do. Probably will never pitch in the majors though.
Today I’m going to work on building a new website for my art. I’ll be using Squarespace again. It’s so seamless, not having to worry about updating plugin or which version of PHP I’m using or any of that technical stuff that I used to be able to stay on top of, but don’t really care to mess with anymore. I’m doing it for a couple of reasons. One is that they have an new version and it’s not easy to just convert a site to the new version, 7.1. The other is that I don’t want to show prices or sell directly online. I haven’t had much success with that anyway and it’s kind of a pain in the ass to deal with. Plus I don’t want to show my prices on the site, since they might change over time, and even have different rates for different markets. A friend who sells through a gallery in Texas and Saudi Arabia charges higher rates than he does in the Twin Cities.
