Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

I started to flirt with a change in my diet right before Thanksgiving. The change has been making me feel so great, and have such high energy levels, it’s making it impossible to sleep. Not complaining, just find it amusing that instead of the cats keeping me up all night, I’m now keeping them up. haha I went to bed three times the other night, and got back up three times to go paint. 

This is a portrait I painted in my art journal. Can’t say she looks all that amused to be up at 3am, but hey..what can I say? I needed some company. haha

Holy moly, it’s brutally cold outside. -25F wind chill is the predicted forecast for overnight and tomorrow. Schools have already called off. I’ve lived here a long time, and have never seen it this cold before. Pretty crazy, especially since it was 60F yesterday.
