counting down

Well, 4 more sleeps are we're off to the Grand Canyon. And a whole bunch of other places and I am getting SO EXCITED! I think sometimes the best part of the trip (almost) is the anticipation.
I feel happier, knowing I'm looking forward to a break from work, I'm always excited to see new things, new places. Could like really be any better than to be able to do what we do?

Mojo Challenge 35

It's Sunday. A week from now, I should be camping in Bar Nunne, Idaho. Who names a place Bar Nunne? Is it better than everywhere else, bar none? Or worse? I guess I'll find out.

I finished my Bliss album today, after spending 6 hours straight on it yesterday. I'm really happy with it. Judy called me yesterday and raved about my retro album that's at Bliss for this month. When I turned it in, Rose did the same. I think it's a winner. Holy cow, what a lot of work it was, though! Makes this one look like a walk in the park. Who ever started that saying, walk in the park? Was it someone walking in the park? Was the walk easy? Was the day easy? Money doesn't grow on trees, that's another one I've always wondered about. Is there a secret money tree somewhere that the person whose yard it is in doesn't want the rest of us to know about, so they made up the saying? It all makes my head hurt.

The page is about my girl, who is in Tofino now. I guess she caught a 35 pound fish the other day. Cool, I haven't taken her fishing since she was 4. I miss her, maybe that's why I did a LO about her. I just booked our rooms at the TI in Vegas, she's going to love it. I hear the beds are to die for. Mmmmmmmmmmmm...

Pluggin' Along

Oh man, what a long time it's been since I've been here. Busy getting ready for our trip, busy wrapping up the Cuba albums, busy with work, busy with whatever. I'm spending so much time getting inspired by other's work on line, that I haven't done so much of my own. Well, that's not actually true, I have done my wall gallery in my bedroom, it's looking pretty fine.

And I ripped up the carpet in my studio, laid tiles (the baseboards aren't on yet) and re-organized the entire room. Now I have so much natural light, I LOVE IT! So I have accomplished some things.

And what I HAVE done, I've taken great care with an great time. I may be less productive, but there's a better quality of work that I'm bringing to the table. I feel good about that.

Now that I've said how regretful I am that I haven't been here more, I shall sign off so I can go to bed. What can I say? I do the best I can with what I have. There simply are not enough hours in the day for the things I WANT to do.
