The short winter days are beginning to blur, and blend together. I’m always saying to my husband, “What day is today anyway?” He isn’t much help. He thought it was Thursday all day Friday. haha! It’s hard to keep track as one day slips into the next, especially with the crazy artist hours I keep.

Sometimes, like last night, I’m working through the night until the wee hours of the morning. I greeted 3am with a huge HELLO, and was still super hyper, and as passionate about art as I was at 6:20 am when I woke up the day before. Whew! Getting really close to working around the clock. Crazy, I know, but my energy is through the roof. I have all but quit drinking caffeine (only 1 cup of watered down coffee in the morning these days, then I switch to herbal teas, water, and apple cider vinegar tonic). I’m convinced having an overabundance of energy is all about diet, but I digress. lol

Day 187

I haven’t been doing much outside of painting, filling orders, filming and editing lots of youtube videos, and playing with the cats. Even though that might sound boring to some, I know I have a nice life. A good, honest life. And not a day passes that I don’t feel grateful for that.
