Delivery Day, Deadlines, Etc

yeah, yeah, yeah.....i'm super busy. what's new?

I have to remember to keep gas in my tank so I can keep on going today. Way too much to do but hopefully FOCUSING will get me to my goals. Yesterdays plans were a bit derailed by an impromptu beauty day. I had signed up to be a hair model at the salon my friend works at and thought I was getting a cut and out the door to work again but it turned out I was lavished with the works! Color and cut AND a manicure by my favoritest manicurist, Lydia Johns! In a nutshell I feel like a brand new girl again, even if I didn't get much done in the painting department.
It happens. And no way am I passing up an opportunity to get spiffy on the cheap/free!
New hair cut and color! Lovely new manicure by Lydia Johns! Color: Charisma by Zoya

Dropped of the Harajuku vinyl art to Lydia and with the completion of ONE more her walls will look pretty sweet! Today is the drop date for the Bowie show. As of right now I have 2 finished and one waiting on the worktable to be painted. Can I do it?! Can I also cram in a graphic design project thats due tomorrow before I have to go trekking today? I'm gonna try to be Wonder Woman!
Turned in my bio and art to ORIGIN magazine today and it's starting to become more of a reality. I'm super excited to see my painting printed! I've been getting lots of great feedback on the new Bowie records and finished bolting and adding hanging attachments to the light up piece last night. Today I set the lights and find it a comfortable way to travel with me. Blah blah blah...all the stuff I'm writing about I should be doing. Like....now.
Have a great day, see you when I land and next week...more art plunging talk to keep you on track!

(Love the idea of a non toxic manicure? A mango scrub for your feet and a very affordable mani/pedi? Please visit Lydia's page and support small business! Plus she's super sweet!)

Addicted

  Well it's official. I am addicted. Luckily to nothing horrible. It was bound to happen. I'm addicted to the morning walk...the endorphins...the serotonin...the "me" time....the solitude....the music pumping in my ears...the nature I see and feeling like I control my day.  I'm usually up before the sun and getting as much mileage as my body allows. Sometimes it's more than others but it's always good. I'm going to add in more sprints here and there as "burst" exercises are better for me than long running sessions.  Yes, even on the weekends I'm out doing it. There is no sleeping in and admittedly I woke up at 2:30am and started having my morning coffee in preparation... Even though I will wait till much later to go out. That's how I know it's an addiction.  Currently on Week 6 and haven't missed a workout or even postponed it. I showed up for myself and made myself a priority every morning. I am proud of that and so much LESS...

Shoot for the Stars!

Shoot for the Stars! Latest painted record featuring Han Solo AVAILABLE ($50) Theres a beautiful rain falling this Friday morning, it's a quiet steady and soft rain. The complete opposite of how it started....loud thunder cracking, waking me up from sleepyland and making my computers blink. Now it's just a little drip drip and quietude. Rain makes primering a no go since I primer outside. I am looking for the perfect large box to spray in, this will ease a lot of trouble with tree detritus landing on a barely sprayed record and wreaking havoc. My house was busy yesterday with order drop off and order pickup and then a graphic design job I was waiting to hear about popped up so I'm officially BUSY for the next two weeks at  least. Wrapping up record orders and the graphic work and I'm happy to be busy and working from home. This record featured above is up for grabs until someone grabs it. I won't have time for new vinyl for awhile so get it while it's t...

Ride Your Ride Your Ride

my bike Tuco, named after the Ugly One in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly Lifes little surprises never cease to amaze me. I'm not exactly sure how to tell this story but I will try. A few weeks ago my Mom says she was digging around in an old dresser and found this little funny package. The package was flat and made from beer boxes, cut and taped together and a little over 12" x 12" big. On it was my Dads handwriting stating what was inside. RECORDS! And not just any records but records I had wondered what had happened to because I knew my Dad really liked them....FATS DOMINO! He had taken care and written the names of the records for safe keeping. Now they are mine to cherish.  It was like a little gift from the other side...which sometimes doesn't feel very far away. In fact most days it feels like my Dad is still right here with me. With Fathers Day happening this weekend he has been on my mind more than usual.  So yesterday I was a little surprised to ge...
