I finished the picture of Ted and posted it to fineartamerica. Curious to see how it does compared to my traditional work. I ordered a print to see how digital art looks. If it meets my approval, I'll give it to Sharon for her birthday.
Someday, I will be close enough to get in on all the family stuff. Sure wish I could be there. Let Sydney know I'm really pleased for her. Goal accomplished.
I've been jotting down song lyrics. Never did them before but they remind me of poetry. Its snippets of things that mean something to me. If I can meld them together into a song, I'd like it. Don't know about the music part. Right now, all I'm getting are lyrics. But its something. I suspect its just my mind needing words and because I can't carve enough time out, or focus enough to work on novels, my brain is giving me short snippets. I'm grabbing them, jotting them down, and maybe they will turn out to mean something. The muse is sneaky that way.
The people that were supposed to look at the house on Friday stood up the realtor. So all that work for nothing. We'll take the dogs with us again tomorrow and see if it happens then. I got some trim painted today. Little thing but it was bothering me. It shouldn't take too long tomorrow to put everything in order.
I'm fretting. Going through a period of frustration, anger, and sadness. I suspect I'll get hit with those emotions often and unexpectedly. I just try to keep calm, do what I need to do, but I sure wish something good would happen. I need some happy instead of work. I feel like I'm buried under things I have to do but not things I want to do. Joshua is doing really good healthwise. Thats good. Hank is sleeping better and eating better. That's good. I did a few pencil sketches today. Nothing very exciting. but it felt good to hold a pencil.
Book club is Wed. night. I should be able to go to it. Getting out for a couple of hours and talking books and visiting with friends should help a lot.
