Hey all
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to drop in and see how everything is going with all of you.
I finally have a small, free, QUIET (lol) moment. I cannot believe how crazy relocating can be.
I'm sorry I've been so quiet lately. It's not that I don't want to post and chit chat with everyone, but every time I jump on someone is always at my side wanting something or something else needs to get done. It's so frustrating because my art is sitting there, simply calling to me, ya know?
We've been here a month, so far, and I haven't gotten any fairy art done yet. I played a bit when we were waiting for our internet connection the first time, but this last time, nothing.
Rey (hubby) has jumped on the "get a part time job" bandwagon, so been having to see if there's anything I can do for a couple of hours each day, besides all the projects I've got going now.
I think once we're able to get our own place (we're staying with my sister in law right now), then things will calm down and I will finally have the time I need and have been looking for.
Other than that, not too much. Printed out a couple of things that desperately need sending and am still working on that painting I told ya about the other day. I started the skin color and an overlay the other day, but as usual, I used too much water and the paper looks like it's starting to fray within her face. I don't even know if fray is the right word for it, but it's definitely worn down a bit. Wish I knew how to fix it. Any ideas?
Been having writing on the brain, as well, but I do believe the hubby has planted it there. He keeps saying that I am a writer and will always be a writer, no matter how hard I try to be an artist.
That's all fine and good, but the writing muse has not been seen in about 5 years or more. I let go of all my writing stuff before we moved, so if I were to start it's completely like starting from scratch. Which I'm not sure I want to do.
I love my fairy art and I know I'll keep trying, keeping plugging away to get better at it.
But I guess we'll have to wait and see what the future holds.
April!!! I am so sorry that I missed your birthday. Sometimes I am a complete ditz, things go right over my head or totally passed me.
I do hope your birthday was a wonderful one.
Kelly! I am sorry about your grandmother. My heart, thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Again, I am sorry for the delay in posting to you all.
If I missed any other news, good or bad, or just wasn't paying attention, I am sorry.
Sometimes I believe I get truly self-centered and get completely wrapped up in everything around me and paying no attention to others. I do apologize everyone. I don't mean to be like that and believe me, I truly hate it.
But I do hope all is well with everyone and you are all feeling fine or better, at least.
Will end here for now with many blessings to you and yours,
Kathy :)
