I got a lot done for the move last week. Tons done in the past two weeks. I hit my physical limits though. Yesterday was a complete rest day. Did nothing, not even daily art sketch. Couldn't sleep well last night. Woke this morning to pain. Took pills. Tried to move ( Read more... )

I desperately need to do some spring cleaning. I got out the boards today to cut the mats for Rosendal's Orangerie -- just going to concentrate first on getting the big mats cut and the big painting properly framed, doing the small ones will be easier smaller projects. The big one's got to be done right and it's also the only one so big I have to ( Read more... )

The good day is today. This morning Kitten checked her account. Yep, her tax money came in, so she bought my computer this morning. I'll link to it. This thing is crazy insane cool. As has happened before with upgrades, it is the fastest bestest coolest one I've ever had. No matter how many times I go through that, it's always a pure joy to me and ( Read more... )

No images yet, I haven't done my daily art yet today. Right now I am resting from stage two of doing my laundry -- I got it into the dryer and got their stuff out of the dryer. That took bending over too long and my hip's gone out. Some things are still that hard, even in Arkansas ( Read more... )

I had so much energy just a couple of hours ago. Weather shifted again and wham, the pain comes up like a tide and I don't feel up to doing anything. That gets so frustrating. The sun's going down now, just barely beginning to get dark as it gets close to eight ( Read more... )

It was incredible. First, there was the day celebration with my grandkids, the whole family together in the living room. kkitten42 gave out their Ostara basket's contents and they got candy and toys, both of them being cute and well behaved. I wound up loading a Pez dispenser for Sascha in the happy going-around and Kitten got me a package of pastel-colored ( Read more... )

I had it in my spine, now it's getting to my knee in a big way. Especially the bad knee, the one that gets the most strain is my short leg. Today was a real monster of a pain day and I didn't do anything but sit around playing Diablo 2 because I wasn't even up to scribbling in my sketchbook or rambling in journal ( Read more... )

I made it through today with both writing -- editing kkitten42's article thoroughly counts as today's writing -- and art, with my ACEO Sunny Still Life and the photos for my ACEO Magazine article on my ACEO album.

I posted a long post here that was intended for ArtistsWay08 and once again lost track and didn't scroll the menu for the right community to post it in. I' ( Read more... )

I didn't sleep well last night and woke up with the pain at five in the morning. I'm still feeling drug out and foggy, don't know if I'll accomplish much today or not. I would like to do some new art. I would like to finish that really good landscape I posted in progress yesterday. But all I feel up to is poking at Diablo 2 lately ( Read more... )
