Life is what happens…

When you’re busy making other plans.

John Lennon wrote that in his song Beautiful Boy.

I’ve never found a song lyric to be MORE true.

We’re currently snowed in here and I’m just catching up on a few things I’ve ignored while I have nothing else pressing to do.

(This is not my photo and it’s not even Rolla, I just stole it from the internet.)

I’ve taken almost a year’s hiatus from painting, but I’m finally back at it- S-L-O-W-L-Y.
I get a few minutes in here and there between work and other stuff. I haven’t been feeling especially ambitious or inspired in that department for a while. I think part of the problem is I was content. Which I know, sounds counterintuitive, but…

Since I’ve been with Danny and the drama has calmed down, I’ve been really content to just BE. I don’t have the constant angst and need to escape my life I felt before, so I don’t feel the need to bury myself in projects to constantly escape from my life. Good for me. Maybe not so good for my art.

I’m gradually trying to squeeze in some time here and there to work on painting again. Aside from that I’m just focusing on getting things paid off, organized, etc. so when my kid is off to college, I’m off too- headed for our next adventure.

I figure THAT is when this site will really take off.

Until then, I just don’t have that much to tell you or talk about. I can’t even really discuss where I work or what I do. I post the personal shit on my Facebook account. And even that I don’t do very often.

So for now, this is just basically a placeholder.

Check back with me in 1 year, 4 months, 6 days, 19 hours and 45 minutes.

I’ll have LOTS to show you then. 🙂
