I’m doing something a little different today – there’s no art story, but instead there’s some art wallpaper. Today, I needed to remind myself that going for my wild n’ crazy dreams is not selfish or evil. I find, as I move towards my Giant French Art Dream, that my inner struggle is about always [...]

The Thanksgiving post.
I’m not normally big on the forced gratitude thing, but as I sit here, full of apple pie, ham and cheesy potatoes, you can’t help but at least be grateful for apples and cinnamon. So, in the spirit of this weekend, I’m going to humour the Hallmark gods and list a few things that I’m [...]
Never, ever, ever, ever, give up.
Some stuff went down yesterday, stuff that threatened my dreams. I want to move out in a few months with my boyfriend, but we’re running into money troubles. You know, the economy and stuff (i.e. The Apocalypse). It was suggested that maybe we wouldn’t be able to leave, that there wasn’t enough money, that there [...]
Old patterns and new paths: Part 2
So yesterday, we talked about old patterns and feeling like a burden. Today, we’re going to talk about creating some space, shifting and moving forward. Creating space – literally Obviously, none of you have seen my room (unless of course, you’re one of the few people from my “real life” who reads this blog). Let [...]
Happy Hour Fridays: What a week!
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 [...]
Happy things and internal settings
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 [...]
Opening up to the flow
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 [...]
My Inner Control Freak
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 [...]
I'm talking to myself again.
So yesterday, as you can all see, was not exactly a brilliant day. But it did force me to make some choices. I felt so stuck, mired in all the exhaustion and shame and sadness, that I couldn’t really see clearly. So I took a leap of faith. I think I had reached a point [...]
I'm walking on sunshine, whooaaaooo
Today, I am delightfully happy. In fact, more than delightfully happy, and more importantly, I am hopeful. Yesterday, I admit, I was absolutely miserable. Somehow I wrote a happy post anyways, but my allergies were awful and I’d had a less than happy conversation with someone close to me. But today – oh today, I [...]
