Rewiring

A very old photo of my Troll Cat ACTUALLY wearing a tiny hat!

Happy St. Catrick's Day! Popping off a little blog first thing in the a.m. to clear the brain as I sip coffee.
I'm in the process of rewiring myself and morning is the perfect time to do all my new rituals. These include:
1. Guided meditation -Ive found some nice simple ones on Youtube that range everywhere from "Lions Mind" when Im feeling like I need to take charge....to "Just breathe and be right here in your body". Theres some for SLEEP and healing body scans. Doing meditation first thing in the morning puts me right here in the day and reminds me to enjoy the moments as they come and not get stuck in negative mind ramblings.
2. Positive Affirmations- I know I'm starting to sound ultra hippie dippie but I DO NOT CARE 😂 I put on positive affirmations while I soak in a bath and repeat things to myself. "I AM HEALTHY. I AM STRONG. I AM KIND" etc, etc. Because for too long Ive been telling myself I am Sick, I am Old, I am Broken...and you start believing it and BEING IT. Rewiring. Changing my story about me.
3. Bear with me because now we're getting into stuff that even I rolled my eyes at. MANIFESTING. There's a lot to learn about this type of rewiring but the basic pricipal is believe that you are going to get the things you want, allign yourself to those things and you will begin attracting them. I first practiced this when I quit my job. I manifested working for myself as an artist.
It happened.
Now I need to manifest myself in a better position earning what Im worth. I stopped doing all the positive things in my life that were working and let the negative take over me. Now it's time to rewire and reclaim.
So in a nutshell- I'm working on me and I need a lot of work. But Im getting there.
I have two weeks left before Idaho mural trip! Im excited and am making my supply and color list today. But in that two weeks are projects, projects, projects...when it rains it pours and everything stacks up at the same time. When its like this friends start asking if I can do this or that...it never happens when Im free and having a lull in work. Its ALWAYS when Im slammed.
Ah Universe...please organize your calendar!
So now begins the slow chipping away of projects.
See why I have to meditate and tell myself Im gonna be ok? I HAVE TO- for my sanity 😂
Enjoy a pleasant Sunday my friends. See you when I surface!

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...

It's the little things...

I will eventually get back to posting about art 😂 but I lost my first pound with just 3 days of dedicating myself to Metabolic Renewal...and this is me playing fast and loose because A. I did not buy their shakes I'm doing my own. So I don't really know their caloric/nutrition value vs mine. B. Getting 10,000 steps a day on my pedometer.... doesn't happen. That's almost two hours of walking a day. I get 8,000 or 9,000 before the Texas heat or work calls it off. C. Haven't followed any of the meal recipes. I've been winging it with good sense. I will get closer to their instructions in time ( like maybe next week) since I paid for it. My body is SORE AF. It's totally getting put through the paces and I'm lucky there are modifications for pudgy newbies like me. But 1st lb down is a good feeling because seeing the scale move down is what I'm after. I'm pretty proud of myself for yesterday in general..did my workout, a walking session THEN WENT ...

One thing leads to another

Sometimes it just takes one little action to get things rolling in the right direction. For me the action was ordering a giant roll of bubble wrap I didn't even have space for and when it arrived I had to figure out where it would live because my cats were already trying to hug it with their teeth and sharp little claws.  Also, why bubble wrap? What for?  I'm a big believer in taking some sort of action, big or small to make yourself move in a certain direction. I also believe in productive manifesting and the bubble wrap symbolized shipping. Shipping art out. Shipping lots of art out. Shipping out so much art I was justified in living with a big roll of bubble wrap for awhile!  So step one: order the bubble wrap and step two was the fun task of... Making a place for it to live. So manifesting was already happening and I decided I needed a designated area for shipping supplies and hell.. My printer needed a proper home too. I had a very messy shelf with an old printer on ...
