You know how things go chugging along ok for a while and you sort of get used to it ?  And then every minor thing goes wrong and your partner/husband/irritating other sends you right over the edge?   Well, I'm there.  Hanging on by threads.  Its very hard for people to live together.  There needs to be a constant shift of duty, consolation, listening, rallying....right?  Wrong.  If you are a man, you don't feel that obligated.  I'm not writing a book here, I don't really know the statistics, I just know how it looks in most every relationship I've been in/seen.  Someone is grumbling and someone is sniveling.  I refuse to snivel.  But when I grumble it falls as they say on deaf ears. 
So I'm allowing myself a moment to gripe.  AND GRUMBLE. 
And now, thank you, I shall go back to being a human being, even though I don't live with one.

About Me
- Gail Siptak
 - I am living and painting in the little town of Houston. A far way from my San Francisco beginnings. I paint what I see of the human condition, be it human, animal or object. The glimmer of humor, pathos, and spirit in so much of what I see is the basis of what I paint.
