I like to paint. I like to travel. I traveled the world by boat. I have 23 rescue cats at home. I am vegan. I do not eat fish.  I like summer. I grow my own food.
I play card games. I like fishing, lakes, Spring. My mom is alive. My dad is dead.
I painted a portrait of my cats this week. I painted one picture of all of them, not 23 individual ones! Oh wow! I'd love to see it. Did you get them all to sit still for it, or did you paint it from a photo or something? I painted it from a photo.  I took many pictures before I got a perfect one.  That's really cool. I wish I knew how to paint. How's your garden doing? It is doing great.  Gardening is very relaxing to me.  How is your mom now?  I am sorry about your father. She's ok, I guess. She's still having a really hard time with things. She needs to stay busy. Maybe gardening would be a good hobby for her. You can suggest that she tries.  Do you live close to her? Yes. She's only about 15 minutes away. What kind of plants do you recommend she start with if she takes up gardening? If she uses herbs to cook, she can start with basil or cilantro.
