Original abstract expressionism by Nancy Gordon Moore

Last week I finished managing my 10th and final APA Convention - one of my last major responsibilities before I retire.  It is hard to convey the intensity of putting on a weeklong event for almost 13,000 psychologists that takes a full year to plan and has thousands of moving parts.  I took my staff out for a celebratory lunch and wanted to give them something special from me.  So everyone got a small 5x7 postcard painting with a personal note on the back.  It was nice to be able to blend the life I am leaving with the life I am taking up...  They all joked about hanging on to it for when I'm rich and famous.  I suggested they might want to simply keep it for the sentimental value.  :-)
