Gratitude in my attitude!

It's a new morning and with it another chance at hopefulness and resolve.
I remembered a year old gift card to Target yesterday and coupled with a Christmas gift card I received this year I was off to the big red bullseye yesterday to get some much needed groceries 🎯 stocked up on food for cats and humans and am feeling much more agreeable today.
I think I'm one day closer to getting paid for work- or should be. Just to set the record straight- I'm not in dire straits because I don't work...in fact I work every day...but the nature of some of this work dictates I don't get paid until someone decides the work is done. And sometimes this can drag on- not through any fault of my own. So I've got to start creating other avenues of revenue and digging myself out of this hole I've found myself in. But I digress...it's a day of gratitude!
1. There is now food!
2. I am in pretty good health right now!
3. I have a roof over my head-right now anyways!
4. I have the skills to pay the bills and the brains to figure it out.
5. There are good people and animals in my world 💜 
6. I get to do what I love more often than others- I am blessed!
And right now I'm going to go work out and feel thankful for my body that moves and works and isn't hurting very much today. Hope everyones has much to be grateful for too!

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...

Words!

  Hello! I haven't blogged since last year. Even writing the word "blog" felt foreign and weird! I have actually been writing stuff on my Patreon account so if you've missed the updates you can sign up for free over there. There is also an option to pay a few dollars a month to help support me as an artist and get "extra" content- in case you are of that mindset and either way- thank you for caring about the art adventures.  I have missed blogging actually. I guess I like to make words, string them together like a pretty necklace and let them live their own expressive life wrapped around me.  Times are different. Times are weird! But I guess you know that. And also times are the same and as old as time. Is it really more terrible than any other time or are we humans just more "connected" to the propaganda and daily bad trip in a way that is insane and unhealthy? Either way I do my best to keep my sanity and I don't believe about 98% of what I s...

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...
