There is nothing more delightful than a little packaged painting, sitting on your bed, waiting to be shipped off to unknown lands (well, Oregon) to meet new people and adventure in the world. Especially knowing that you decorated the heck outta the packaging, so it looks super awesome. It was mostly just an excuse to [...]
Get this – I just spent the last hour and a half playing with pastels and getting embarrassingly messy. Me! Playing! And having fun! I am so happy right now. I’m really feeling joyous. I never let myself do that, especially before I’ve done any work whatsoever. Me having fun. Gosh, what is the world [...]
I’m definitely more sick this morning. I’ve got this horrible, hacking cough that makes me sound like I’m dying from some hideous, medieval disease. Like the plague or something. It’s decidedly attractive, trust me. So this is me, attempting to rest. Wormy suggested yesterday that I actually take the time to physically heal before tackling [...]
I’m sick. I’ve got a cold. I’m absolutely exhausted. And my brain is dead. I’ve got the dumb. I keep staring at this screen and can’t think of a damn thing to type. For the record, I hate being sick. It makes coherent thought a million times harder. Actually, it makes doing anything a million [...]
I am so over you. And all you unbelievers. I’m over you too. I am kindly asking you to leave. The door’s over there. Try not to let it hit you in the ass on the way out. I’m tired of you thinking I’m nothing. I’m tired of your judging. I’m tired of you limiting [...]
Wow. So I am finally sitting down to write this. Do you know what time it was when I first sat down to do this? 7:50am. Do you know what time it is now? 11:26am. Apparently the Universe’s intention this morning was to just run me off my feet – I ended up going downtown [...]
Part of this week’s exercises in the Artist’s Way (I’m on week 9, by the way) is to go back and read my morning pages. At first, I was appalled. Also a little nervous, a little scared. Really? I thought. You really want me to go back and read those awful, horrible scratchings and scrawlings? [...]
Lots and lots of awesome, yummy stuff going on. Yippee! Dance with me! Pretty things and websites! Last week the delightful Heather of h’artworks and I exchanged love by mail. And by “exchanged love” I mean, I sent her a Valentine’s card with lots of loving and an alpaca, and she sent me a note [...]
I’ve been doing a lot of work around money lately. With my wanting to move out and actually make enough money to support myself, it’s in the forefront of my mind. But so is all of it’s ickyness. Places of Stuck When I think about what I associate with money, again and again, I think [...]
If you know me, you know that one of my least favourite things is to not be in control. Letting go is by far the hardest thing for me to do. I’d rather wrestle a 10 foot croc than attempt to relinquish control. Oddly enough though, that’s what I did all last week. I was [...]
