Letter #27

Hi Dad,


It was miserable gray and rainy today, so me and J. didn't go to the beach.  She came over and visited instead.  We had a good visit and generated some ideas for NAMI speakers and topics.  Mom might have got a new caregiving job.  She is waiting to hear back on that.  It keeps her busy and out of our hair.  Gotta be a good thing.  :)

I found this great pair of black real leather boots on Amazon.  They are actually suede, which is even better.  They are originally $129, now on sale for $45.  So I ordered them.  I'm so excited!  They look kinda like biker boots, but the suede softens them a little.  Not too high heels either.  I guess I have a thing for shoes.  I definitely have a thing for purses, and maybe jewelry too.  You can never get too big for accessories.  Or too small either. 

Here is a drawing I did this week.  I left the guidelines in.  I think it turned out pretty good.  Actually, I'm amazed it turned out this good.


A part of me says, "You can't draw.  Why do you think you can draw?"

I want to stomp on that voice.  See, I have evidence, I can draw.  But I can still hear those lines.  Probably insecurity stemming from something an art teacher said a long time ago.

I showed J. the cross-stitch, drawings, postcards and Art Journal pages I've been doing lately.  She said she would go home and scrapbook.  I hope she did.

Well, that's about it for tonight.

Sleep well...

LOVE

Anne
