Stu-stu-studio!

           Tuco enjoying a CLEAN space!

Bear with me as Im going to be discussing ORGANIZATION for a bit. Yesterday was an epic day in the declutterring department. About 9 bags of clothes and shoes were hauled off to the donation bin.
My walk in closet is now a fully functional walk in closet and I can see all the things I have so I can cull even more. Vintage stuff is being set aside to sell on ebay. Old tshirts are being converted to paint rags or donated in the second round.
Things are being repurposed and put to use. It feels GREAT! Somehow the closet project involved the laundry room debacle- as quite a few laundry bags and baskets had accumulated. I sorted through those and before I knew it the laundry room was decluttered and everything was in its place.
Such peace of mind to have that yearlong project off my back! I feel like I've finally moved into my home. My bedroom floor is free of its pile of clothes. Carpet vacuumed and everything dusted. Falling asleep in a clean room is AMAZING.
There is still tons to do but I can tackle it piecemeal- like the dresser (maybe a drawer or two a day), the bathroom bins (old products, makeup that need to be tossed), etc.... But I decided it would be smart to start on my STUDIO today. At least putting everything where it goes until I can get some storage solutions for my gridwall project. Have a few more records to finish for people so a clean studio is next on the list.
2019 is going to be SORTED and I cannot wait!

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...

Down Time

work in progress, my first MUNNY It's been a whirlwind of cleaning, organizing and getting ready for the holidays. There are now small signs of Christmas here, a wreath on the door, the tiny tree is up and garland is flocking the doorway. I sent out some Christmas cards and bought the Christmas ham to share with my family. I guess I need to find a pie though, absolutely forgot about that. Some friends are coming over tonight so I'm making my studio presentable for whoever would like to see it....it's a dining room, don't expect some cool amazing room filled with cool amazing things. In fact almost all my art is NOT EVEN HERE. And actually the get together is being held next door at my friend and landlords place so I don't have to break my back trying to be the hostess with the mostest awesome house. I'm an artist with 3 cats and too much stuff, it's never gonna be pretty. But I digress, this blog is about that creepy looking head up there.... I need...

2026 Petty Edition

 I just missed blogging here. On Patreon it's always a focused point and hits people's mailboxes directly and I feel like I might be bothering them  This is more Dear Diary let me dump my brain out here.  It's 2026 and I am on point and focused on a goal. I'm a harpoon heading for my mark and I've already done the hard part of getting accepted into my goal- The Other Art Fair . If you know me you know I have put in the time, the hours, weeks, months and years. I've sacrificed everything and stripped away everything stoically to the barest essentials to be an artist.  Lost social scenes, Fair weather friends and missed out on experiences. Some of that is alright. Some of that is painful. I can definitely only keep friends who understand I am that weird friend you hardly see who is walking a monks path to my destination. I have a dream and purpose and lots of people do not. I am aware of my time here and my gift to use and some people think time is endless and...
