Morning

When do you feel most productive? In the morning

A good rule of thumb is to not call when I’m feeling homesick. My good friend tried to trouble shoot and thought I should just go back to CA. She had many suggestions for how it would work. None of which were appealing to me. I know that a little bit of home sickness onContinue reading “Gray Skies”

Anything?

What topics do you like to discuss? My best friend and I talked several times in a single day. We’d talk in the morning, we’d talk through our workout, we’d talk as we cleaned up our kitchens after getting our kids off to school. We’d talk on our errands, we’d talk while making supper andContinue reading “Anything?”

Improving

Almost, but not quite. But then I did it. I appreciate these long baseball watching evenings because they give me plenty of time to make a reel for Instagram. I’m still learning so these things can take awhile. I had to delete my first attempt, but I’m getting better. If only marginally… I feel aContinue reading “Improving”

Risky Art Projects?

Even just setting up to do it. It all feels like I’m risking something. My ownContinue reading “Risky Art Projects?”

The house was hundred years old and adorable, but nothing much had happened to it, besides shag carpeting.Continue reading “Four square house”

Plant Power

We have been working for days on pulling out this azalea bush. Its all dried out dead branches, but yikes, the roots are strong. My hands are nicked, blistered and tired. My back feels like I’ve done a lot of digging. (We both have). Jumping on a giant crowbar helped pry the stubborn roots up.Continue reading “Plant Power”

Attic Space

I’m revisiting my attic studio. It s still cold outside, but the attic is lovely! I have so many ideas! The floor is plywood. I was just at this discount store and they have FLOORING… Even if I get the cheapest of the cheap and only enough to cover the main walking area, It willContinue reading “Attic Space”

Advanced Art

Write about a time when you didn’t take action but wish you had. What would you do differently? I wish I had gone to grad school. Of course it was art. No one would have thought an advanced degree in art would have served any purpose whatsoever, at least not in my family, (my patentsContinue reading “Advanced Art”
