yesteryear.. why facebook rocks.

I took a chance. I have a painting (I'll post a photo tomorrow it's dark and I wont get the best shot with the lighting in my house). This painting was given to my mom when she was in high school by her best friend. It is a part of my youth from hanging on her bedroom wall to hanging in her walk in closet (it will soon take a loving spot in my new home). However, I remember my mom trying to tell me the symbolism of the painting and me thinking I had forever to remember it. Now, with her gone I have no idea but love the painting.

So tonight I took a chance on facebook. I looked up the artist (my mom's best friend at least signed it!). I didn't get ahold of her but of her sister! I'm going to photograph the painting and see if I can rack her brain tomorrow, I'll keep everyone posted but I was so excited tonight I had to share. I miss my mom so much some days it feels like a physical pain, these moments make it easier.
