“I am on a roll!” Sheila said out loud. “Too bad it is going downhill and gaining speed fast.”

She had struggled all day. Painting, reworking. Ripping the failures into shreds. She worked through lunch. Skipped supper too. But the harder she worked. The worse the paintings became.

She decided it was time to stop. Time to admit defeat, for tonight anyway. She would face tomorrow just as Scarlet had – with hope and determination. Tomorrow is another day, after all!
