I’m sitting in my new living room, listening to the wind and snow rage outside. I woke up wearing my insecure pants. They’ve been on a lot lately. I think it has something to do with February. I’m counting down the days until March, when spring starts to whisper it’s promise of warmer days and [...]

Enough.
December 14, 2009 – 8:44 am
I’ve been working a lot with my money issues lately. I’ve suddenly got more money that I’ve ever had before so yay. But instead of fixing my money problems, it’s actually just shining a brighter light on all the ways me and money don’t get along. I want to fix that before I do something [...]
Believing in myself.
November 10, 2009 – 8:11 am
So do you all remember my personal ad for a new job? Yesterday, I started a new one. And I love it. It’s pretty much perfect for me. It’s so perfect, I have to keep pinching myself. The thing is though, I didn’t quit the smoothie job. I just reduced my hours. Don’t worry – [...]
The Value of Art
September 10, 2009 – 8:40 am
Yesterday I read Jonathan Mead’s Zero Hour Work Week and I lurved it. (If you haven’t read it, go here to pick it up – it’s a free PDF download.) Jonathan’s whole principle is that you don’t have to hate your work and that if you find work that you’re passionate about and brings value [...]
Everything will be fine.

Yesterday morning, I was pretty much having a meltdown. I was so tired and couldn’t bear to face another day of work. I knew that if things continued like this, I wouldn’t be doing anything, let alone working in 2 months time. I’d be practically comatose. But I made a choice – that if it [...]
Art vs "Real Life" – Who's going to win?
August 20, 2009 – 9:01 am
So I’ve worked two shifts at my new job and, while my coworkers are great and my boss is a good, intelligent person I can respect, I’m already starting to dread the job itself. I make smoothies. Basically for 6-8 hours straight. I’m on my feet the whole time, and it’s already taking it’s toll [...]
Opening up to the flow
February 17, 2009 – 11:47 am
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 [...]
It's time for a facelift. Or maybe a "Life Lift"
January 28, 2009 – 9:40 am
I’ve got two completely unassociated topics floating around my head today. Not sure if I can link them up, but they’re both clamoring to be written about, so I guess today you’re going to get a schizophrenic post. First up: my website I’ve redesigned my website so many times, it’s actually a running joke with [...]
One of those delicious days
January 26, 2009 – 11:42 am
Yesterday was one of those delicious days. Jesse has lent me his laptop for the week so that while my sister is home for exams and my dad is off work, I can still work on the computer, without having to do battle for our one PC. Oh my gosh, this whole laptop thing is [...]
