Mixed Nuts show

I have a piece showing here...


My first gallery showing and I had to miss it. No worries, I went to the Outback Steakhouse and had Toowoomba pasta instead (yummy). Anyone in Australia catch it? Please fill me in mate! Check it out if you are in the area. You can even purchase your favorite nut if your in the mood!!

in-spirit inspiration

There was a time I didn't really like computers. Now it's becoming my entertainment center. I'm getting into listening to podcasts and blog talk radio to pass the 10 hours I spend in my cubicle-sweet-cubicle. I may as well tend to my soul while basking in it's fluorescent office glow.

Marisa Haedike
of Creative Thursdays posts great podcasts in her blog. She tells her story and speaks honestly about how she deals with her finances to make her dreams happen in this one.

Hay House Radio (thanks Marisa)- a goldmine for inspirational listening. Just register and it's free.

There you can find authors like...

Michael Neill

Dr. Wayne W Dyer

Louise Hay

Sonia Choquette

...and many, many more.
It's hard for me to make time to read and this site is a great solution.
Happy listening!

where did march go?

Melting snow & little buck on TBH

March is a blur of influenza, gobs of day-job work, broken bones and tiling-tiling-tiling. Our days are numbered to finish our cabin and although we see the light at the end of the tunnel there is still a ton to do. It's our priority at the moment but I'm managing to worm a few creative projects in as a treat to myself. Oh yeah - D's the one, he broke his ankle. I guess I'm finishing the place by myself?!

I was asked to participate in a secret group project and I just mailed off my work yesterday. What an honor. I'll post pics when I'm allowed.

Jill McDonald started a new blog. Gosh do I love her art. I would love to follow in her footsteps and have my art in the places she does. Check it out!

I have a swap planned with the ever patient Small Fox. The deal was made months ago but of course it's been pushed back but always on my mind. I can't wait to dig in and come up with something foxy!

Little Brendan was born and I owe him some art for his room. I can't wait to meet him!

I have very cool assignment/ swap project with my SOUP girls due soon. I'll be working on that tonight.

I am having panic attacks because I can't figure out how to make time to enter the 2nd Annual Softie Award contest. I've got ideas but no time. I threw my raccoon in the running for cutest face but I want to do something new, something more! Check out all the awesome entries here!
I need a 48 hour day...sister's, do you feel my pain? I'm not complaining. I'm very lucky that these are the dilemma's in my life. I really couldn't ask for more!! I am truly blessed.

grandma...

...we'll miss you!
Perhaps they are not stars in the sky
but, rather openings where our loved ones shine down
to let us know they are happy.
