The Old Ways...


I think I jumped off Facebook on the 3rd...it's somehow now the 14th. Time has kinda been zooming this month! Yesterday I got some prints matted up to ship out, transplanted some baby tomatoes (fingers crossed, these are my first tomato plants I started) and did some much needed chilling. Godzilla marathon was on, how could I resist?
Today will be more chilling in the AC with my cat tribe, finishing up a few projects and I think I'll learn a new recipe today. There's always tons to do and now I have time to do it. It really does feel like I left a terrible relationship when I left Facebook and now I'm standing in the sun with the wind blowing my hair and I'm spinning and laughing and...ok not quite like that but kinda. I recommend if you are feeling overwhelmed and just need a break. 🥰❤️ 
My sister sends me the cutest mail! I can't wait to try my hand at felting that cute hamuchan (hamster)🐹. My mom and I have talked about starting a garden at her house, she has a yard and it will be fun since I hardly see her.
More fun mail this week...my friend Elisabeth from Facebook sent me her published book that is about to go into second publishing. How fantastic I'm reading it today!

She wrote and published it based on Inuit folk tales. I've noticed friends are taking time to connect with me in the"old ways" and I love it. Snail mail or actual letters on Facebook instead of "reacts" and "saw your video/post and didn't say anything." Lurker culture! But I have tons of friends and family on Facebook so I haven't completely kicked it. Ok, off to enjoy my Sunday. Hope you are enjoying yours 🌞

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...
