Three

Life is upended, it seems.
My mantra is "if I can get through February, I can get through anything..."

everything is in boxes- i'd unpack but i don't know where to put it all- i have no shelves or tables or drawers. I have no internet connection, i barely have a working computer. i had to borrow an air mattress to sleep on in my new tiny apartment.

if I can get through February, I can get through anything.

i have not done any art work since before last monday. and i can tell because i am crazy as a loon...

perhaps, this week i'll be able to do something.

if i can get through February, I can get through anything....

Painted on my window pane the other day- it's turning out to be a might bit different than i had envisioned, though i like it.

I've already jumped ahead and have begun forming my 4D/time based piece in my head... and for once, it's not a big show with lighting and sound technicians required.

I've also been working on my wedding/divorce book- it's really trippy. writing our story, reading the parts i never read, because i didn't get that far... deciding how it all goes together....
it's actually been very cathartic, already, reminding me of the good stuff, helping me be less angry.... happy, actually, to have had the marriage we had.

I'm glad for this class this quarter- the opportunity to just focus on making things. it's really wonderful. I need this right now, as the Universe knew, all those months ago.

beauty. pain. commanding.
yup.
pretty much got those covered. :)

One

I've been packing.
I'm surprised how many boxes there are already.

In other news, my window, which was purchased from Robyn for $3, is coming along.
The cats ate the feather faerie wing that I had attached to it, but I should have known that would happen. I'm making a new wing to put on it, and keeping the window out of their way.

I started working on the wedding book- it's sad though. It might be too soon to be doing art about my impending (already happening?) divorce.... but, here I am doing it any way. It (art) sometimes happens this way. I think it's good- it doesn't feel good, but it will be a good way to process this.
Better than some of the other things I've thought of... lol.

I love my book journal. It has been the most fun of all the work I'm doing.... I like just putting little bits in it, daily, how I'm feeling or something interesting that happened to me that day...


There it is.
Keep on keeping on. That's all there is.
