Time Has a Way of Flying By

I am all set up in my new studio space at the Co-op.  Although I struggle to get in there to work a lot of days (OK, most days), I am making some real progress on personal projects both in and out of the studio (which is exactly what I was hoping to accomplish) as well as getting set up to teach some sewing classes.  EEK!!  I am nervous about teaching.  I have never really done it before except in a one-on-one situation so this will be a very interesting adventure.  The Co-op is called Artopia One Stop ART Co-op and you can check us out on FaceBook.




Also, I have now made two of the four payments to my upcoming class that I will be taking in July, AND, paid for my plane tickets!!  WOOT!!!  That is going to be an amazingly interesting new adventure as well!!  I am so very happy to be doing it, even if it scares the crap out of me.  :-D

Have a blessed day!

Sooooo much has happened!!

Hello everyone!  I can't believe how much has happened in the last couple of months, much less the last two years.  There has been so much change going on with me and my life, that I have had to focus pretty damn hard on just getting through it all.  And recording any of it was just too time consuming.  It has been wonderful, and even sometimes painful, but I really wouldn't change a bit of it.  I was well past the point of needing these changes and I am grateful to have made them and to be continuing to make them.  My life has improved so much that I am astonished at having been stuck for so long.  Guess I just had to meet the right people and be in the right spot!!  ;-)

Well here I am, and I am proud of the accomplishments I have made and in the person I have become, and I haven't been able to say that in a looooooong time.  I have made some major progress is dealing with and managing my clinical depression and now I have joined an Art Co-op to help build a business for myself in a creative format and to help bring my community together.  Although we just started this Co-op, we are having a wonderful time working towards our goals.  I am looking forward to all of the wonderful new experiences and friendships that will come out of it.  I am also making plans to take an Art Coaching class so that I can officially teach a particular art style.  I am giddy with excitement and nervousness about it, but I definitely want to do it!  

So stay tuned for pictures of the Co-op and more news on my class as I work my way towards it!  Yippee!!!

May you be blessed!
