Thursday at 1:30

I'm at work. It is one of those days where there is a lull between projects. I have been going through an interesting book I found called "Artful Blogging" put out by Somerset Studio. It is inspiring. There are so many great artists, writers, poets, musicians, and the like out there showing themselves to the world. I think its awesome. Just thought I would give a list of things I picked up to read or am presently reading at the moment.

1. above mentioned Artful Blogging
2. July/August How magazine
3. July/August Print magazine
4. Juxtapose magazine
5. Einstein His Life and Universe by Walter Isaacson

I am terrible at keeping up with things. I love plants..but I can only have the ones that wilt when they need water. Otherwise, I get so focused on other things..the next thing I know the plant is dead. I feel horrible. I bought a fake palm tree at Target..its very cool and you can't even tell its not real! I have not blogged in something like 4 months. During this time, I have completed several very large scale projects at work, gotten married, and a multitude of other smaller tasks.

So, yes, I am very happy to be married to my husband (boyfriend for 4 years)! We go great together. We are polar opposites.
He is loud, outgoing and exciting. I am laid back, calm and intensely focused. We bring out the best in one another.

So, when I am away from creativity for a while, I start to long for it. I have not created anything (except work) for several months. I was looking at this blog by Juju Vail at http://jujulovespolkadots.typepad.com about how she keeps a smaller scale paint set out and ready to bring with her so she can paint everyday. I would like to set a goal like that for myself. I am working on a few large projects right now..and when they are done, I will try to organize and get ready to try it. So long for now..off to dream about the future.
