Ok, so this is a photo-free post. I just had to say. I'm excited to be part of the Greater Carbondale Chamber of Commerce's Art Walk on May 28th. I don' t know who our featured artist will be but hope you will stop by that evening and see. We also will be displaying, for the evening, the work of Stephanie Maxwell and her hand crafted wire trees and pendants, and Taylor Kaiser's artwork, as well as my own landscapes and fine art work. Hope to see you!
And, watch your mailbox for our newsletter. Probably next week - our spring - summer issue will hit your mailbox. We have a new look and it's more magazine style and easier to read and to keep on your coffee table for reference. I'd love your feedback when you get it.
Things have morphed againg into our "May" season. that is when the daytimes slow down a little bit (but actually, not so this year) and the evenings and weekends get frantic with award dinners, donor dinners and commencements for the colleges I do work for. The B'nai B'rith dinner last night (the Americanism Award) was my 18th!!! I can't believe it. I did the first one in 1992. That just amazes me. It's an honor actually. Next we look foward to various events for the Jewish community center, again that I've been covering since 1992&3. I reflect over the years as to where I started and where I am now and how the goals I had written down over the years have come true...but that's a marketing, goal setting lesson for another day.

Laughter comes to KFP
I'm excited to have my long time friend Jeannine Luby move her office to our studio. There has been an extra room standing empty (well, except for all the cardboard that takes up space awaiting recycling) and Jeannine can use the space for her business "Laugh to Live". Here is an article that Jeannine wrote for my newsletter...
Smile and Say Chee ‘hee hee hee’ se!
Laugh to Live! Comes to Kaiser Fine Photography
Everyone wants to wear their best smile in a picture. Some days it can be tougher than others to find that smile…but it’s there. Stress reveals itself through a barking dog that needs to be let out, burnt toast, spilled coffee caused by a pothole in the road, a late arrival to an important meeting, an unkind or negative word said to someone because of your bad morning. We all experience stressors like this that take their toll on us and make us not feel like smiling. But the smile is inside waiting to be let out! And the smile is just the doorway to something even more important… laughter.
My name is Jeannine M. Luby, certified laughter leader and owner of Laugh to Live! I’m proud and pleased to announce that I’ve just opened a new office on the second floor of my good friend (and fabulous photographer) Cheryl’s Carbondale Studio. I welcome you to stop by the North Church Street location to introduce yourself. I would love to share some information about how wonderful laughter and humor are. I am dedicated to integrating more laughter and humor into people’s daily lives through Laugh to Live’s services that include: motivational presentations, laughter yoga sessions, comedy improvisation & stand-up performances and humor writing, for corporate, group and private audiences.
Every man, woman and child (and yes, even dog) can benefit from laughter. Ever since Norman Cousins made the medical community take notice of the wonders that laughter did for his body* after he watched Marx Brothers’ comedies, research has continued to reveal the benefits of laughter … and it gets more and more encouraging every day.
Laughter can help reduce stress, improve heart health, lift our mood, burn calories and help us think more clearly and creatively … just to name a few of the many valuable and positive effects it brings about.
I look forward to meeting you and sharing a laugh or two … for the health of it.
Visit www.laughtolive.net to learn more about what Laugh to Live can do for you, employees at your office, caregivers, teachers, students and everyone in our community! Or feel free to call 650-7518 to ask about how Laugh to Live! can help you find your smile.
*Cousins, who had a life-threatening disease, found that after 15 minutes of hearty laughter he was able to get two hours of pain-free sleep without drugs.
