I'm doing better today than yesterday. I stayed up late last night making postcards. I was driven to make something (sort of) useful after a conversation about Art Journaling. I finished 6 of them this morning, then made 4 more this afternoon. They all turned out really nice. I put a regular stamp on them because they are thicker than a regular postcard. I'll mail 4 of the first set in the morning. Pictures later.
I'm in this incredibly creative period right now. No super long projects, just these one-offs. That's OK by me. I mean that U2 Jacket took me a couple years to embroider, on and off. All those French knots!!! I feel really good creatively; I just wish I had more balance in my life. I haven't done any schoolwork this week, maybe the weekend will be different.
I made Beef Stroganoff for dinner. It turned out delish. We had it on noodles, with broccoli, salad, and canned plums for dessert. Wish you coulda been here to enjoy it with us. I was tired after all that and took a nap. Betty Boop is sleeping in Chris' room, on his bed. I colored Mom's hair today and painted my nails tonight. You probably don't care about that girly stuff. :)
Here is Week 5's Art Journal page. It was supposed to be an abstract, but I don't really do abstracts. It turned out alright I guess.
Tomorrow is the Coffee Klatch. I wonder who'll be there. I'm actually looking forward to it, amazing. I think I'll go have some egg nog. Don't ask where I got egg nog in February! You wouldn't believe it if I told you.
Miss you.
Sleep well...
LOVE
Anne
