Lovely Fall Day

It's a beautiful Fall day and I have been more than productive.

I can't believe it's almost November.
Another month closer to home.

Home.

I can't wait...

If sales pick up just a little more, I can go home in January...but until then...7.5 months...

Hope everyone is have a great Tuesday :)

Studio!

So after re-organizing my little space for painting, I feel like I have a little studio all to myself. I wish I had done this sooner, and really don't know why I didn't.

I've been working on my Fresh Pot show and some bigger paintings for my Etsy shop. Things are going really well. I had some pictures, but it seems as though my computer has eaten them. THis is happening more and more lately.

That's about it. It's been one of those days where I keep checking my e-mail every 30 minutes to see if I got a sale.

I'm just feeling really anxious today. I think I have already eaten my weight in Reece's Miniatures...
Grrr....anxiety and restlessness are my least favorite things in the world.

New Work!!

Yay! I posted some new items on Etsy. It feels like it's been eons since I've done it!

I have some more, but I like to stager my postings. Besides, I am not quite done with some paintings...I'll post some pictures of those here.
I have decided that all the work that I have done since moving here relates to waiting. I feel like I am constantly waiting. Waiting for school to be over. Waiting to move back home. Waiting for Spring. Waiting, waiting, waiting. Before we found out that we would be moving we were waiting to hear back from schools. Then when we found out, we were waiting to move. It seems like when you are at this point in your life your whole existence revolves around waiting. Everything seems to stagnant and temporary. It can be so frustrating.

I am also fascinated by these images of old typewriters I found in some old typewriting manuals. I love looking at old technology and comparing it to the newest gadgets. The new Apple Air vs. an old Remington typewriter. The contrasts are so funny.

Anyway, I had a pretty productive morning. We got up to go to the gym like we usually do Thursday-Sunday. It snowed about 3" last night, but we figured that the freeway would be ok to drive. After all this is Michigan and it is a workday. We were wrong. The freeways were awful. We almost went off the road a couple of times and people generally drive like well, I won't say it, but you know...

So we turned around and went home. No gym today.
But, I did get a lot of work done. My work for the show is just about totally done. I have a couple more things to do, and then I start packaging them up.

So everyone and their mom got to see the season premier of Lost last night. Except me. I get to watch it tonight. Yay! I am so stoked! So that's what I'll be doing tonight.

That's it for today. It's still snowing a little outside. We are suppose to get 8 inches today. I can't wait until Spring...
