Order from Chaos


I put my bad mood to productive use yesterday and did something I've been needing to do for a year... Started unpacking my closet. I literally moved in here- threw a bunch of garbage bags filled with clothes, shoes, scarves and purses into a nice little walk in closet and never looked back. For a whole year. I was either either sick, busy with work or tired....it never got dealt with, never a priority. I was fine to wear the same pair of jeans, 3 pairs of holey threadbare jeggings and a handful of rock shirts for a year. A pile on the floor and a little laundry basket was my closet. So lame!
Super fab SPACE MOD two piece- dress and coat I unpacked!

Im totally in appreciate and use what you have mode. And I have a WALK IN CLOSET...its small but mine! So Im doing my darnedest to purge pounds of clothes that don't serve me and make this space functional. Anything that isn't working for me this year- gets fixed or booted. And that will extend to all aspects of my life. Order from chaos. I have control of this. Its also been metaphorically- a thorn in my side. Anytime I had to do something for someone else that I really didn't have time to do...I thought "I haven't even dealt with my OWN life yet but now I gotta go deal with that". Now I can deal with my own life and slide that thinking right off the table. Hopefully by the end of today that closet will be in working order. Then will be the dresser...then hooking up my turntables. I haven't enjoyed my vinyl records for a whole year. Since Im signed here for another year (lease-wise) I guess I can get comfy.
Looking forward to 2019 being a more settled year for everyone and me not wearing clothes from the floor. 😄
I love end of the year clean out. Having space and actually using the things you have are a Christmas present in itself. This all speaks to the fact that I've been putting myself second to everyone and everything in life and that's got to change. Got to get happy so I can put the happy out there. Its recharge and reconnect time.
Celebrating the holidays by purging and releasing instead of consuming and adding more chaos. Wishing everyone a great holiday out there!

Digital Vacation

  Have you looked around and discovered you have filled your life with bad habits? If you said NO- good for you, you might not be human! 😁  I was experiencing a major BLAH and it was all because of ME. What I spent time on, consumed, did and did not do. I also felt like the willpower I used to have in abundance was gone and I wondered if I would ever get it back.  First and foremost I had to look at my main bad habits. What was the very first thing I did every day. EVERY DAY! I reached for my phone, I social media blitzed my brain over two long cups of coffee every morning. I made sure to look at my MEMORIES like it was my job every day. Ruminating on the past and seeing everyone's angry opinions and celebrity/political posts and regurgitated memes ad nauseum....is actually not a very optimistic and healthy way for me to cruise into the day. Not only is this not good for my spirit it wasted almost two hours of every morning. 💀 That's precious time!  I'm weaning mys...

So what's the Scenario?

Street Artist 'My Dog Sighs' Paints Faces on Cans Found Littered on the Street I found this interesting art on Pinterest and thought it would be a good example for a proposed scenario.....indulge me if you will.... The scenario is this....this street artist paints on cans. Pretty cool right? Pretty neat! He's probably not the only one who paints on cans in the world but he most likely is the only one in his little neck of the woods and art circle. Ok, let's pretend I invite this CAN painter to be in this big group show we do annually at my gallery. (This is pretend land, I dont have a gallery but roll with me...)  Ok, he is a hit, everyone thinks his can faces are awesome and he's considered pretty unique for doing this medium in our little art circle. Ok fast forward into the future....it's a year later and it's time for our big annual show...here's the scenario....we don't invite the CAN artist to come show again BUT we do hand out a can ...

Top 10 Reasons

  Have you seen Labyrinth? The scene where she finally realizes she had the power all along and that actually Gareth did not ...that's powerful stuff. My favorite part....aside from every scene with David Bowie prancing about in too tight leggings. 😁 My digital vacation got interrupted yesterday. I've still been checking my messages in Messenger because HI IM AN ART BUSINESS AND THAT DONT STOP. I was alerted that the scammer had hit up a mutual friend and because I was trying to be Art Spiderman I went swinging back online to see what was going on. Unfortunately the scammer got someone and I had to make another PSA about it to help my peeps understand what was going on. Barring that though... it's up to YOU to be SMART PROACTIVE RESEARCHING humanoids. I can't save you.  Also my brief pop into fakebook gave me enough fodder to want to keep my vacation going. Here's what I was met with on messenger and on my page upon landing:  1. People pushing politics/celebrities ...
