www.instagram.com/p/DPNOphCAF1S/ trying to make some little digital zines and collages again~ missing blogging and design. got so discouraged about Al and realized i donât care. i can still make my silly art. AND do any of you still blog or have websites? for a bit i was obsessed with #neocities ~ nothing hits like the early internet days.
Welcome Way: Retro, Charming Getaway in Coloma, Michigan
interesting that when i talk, i barely speak, but when i write, i say so many things that are unnecessary.
i never never never thought i would do this but i wanted to work outside the house a bit~ working inside the house can get lonely and difficult to stay on task. âi have all day to finish that website so i can clean the kitchen now⌠iâll have time.â theres not really a community unless i pay to join a coworking place.
but yet most in-person jobs in my field (art/design/marketing) are full time. or at least more time than i have. my #1 priority is being there for my kids before and after school, organizing, cleaning, cooking.
iâve been dog/cat sitting for many years now on the side (animals are my fave), but recently i started volunteering at beas school last year. i still enjoy helping there but i wanted to add some paid things also! and iâve began guest teaching at coletteâs school as well as have taken on a one-on-one client iâm supporting.
iâm still doing design but iâm mostly trying to stick with commissions these days vs designing things for other people. i love commissionsâtheyâre paying for MY style. but i also love clients that are a good fit~
iâm not sue if itâs adhd but i canât stand the 9-5. it drove me so mad doing it, the 9-5 office life. i was not medicated for my adhd ar that time so maybe thatâs why. i couldnât stand the high-stress, micromanaged monotony. i would rather work at home than that. but after working at home for 15 yearsâŚ? iâm ready to add back in more jobs that feel right. getting paid to help pets and people is a dream. they are very part time which gives me time for my girls, david, and my remote work.
What Do I Do if a Bat Gets in my House?
Well. It happened. A bat got in my house. And not just one bat, but two. And one of them? It spent the night with us, tucked away somewhere in the house, without me having a clue until I woke up to find it screeching and swooping in our hall at 3am. Poor baby. And poor us, namely my ocd and anxiety. Iâll admit, my first reaction was panic, followed by a wave of âhow do I get this beautifulâŚ
Creative Acts of Kindness: Scavenger Hunts And Caches
I simply enjoy these creative acts of kindness and scavenger hunt-style activities that involve inspiration, connection, and surprise. Theyâre meant to bring a little joy to others through small, colorful creations hidden in public places. I wanted a place to list all of these types of activities as well as offer an opportunity for visitors to leave notes about found items! My daughters and IâŚ
The Indiana State Fair in Indianapolis
Orange Cola by CokesZooka
So my daughter, Colette, has finally released a song with her signing and I am obsessed. She has sang, wrote lyrics, and composed music since she was 5. I have always been proud of her but her growth these days is insane.
Is this thing still on?
iâm sitting upstairs, reading, looking at the gloomy sky peeking right outside my window. working up the courage to take a walk without the sunshine. slightly irritated that my phone is frozen and wonât update.
from the hallway, coletteâs chill and ambient sleep music plays in waves as the peach blossoms sway in the chilly breeze.
everythingâs OK.
and everything is going to be fine.
iâm in a web of grief. there are moments of pure joy and a gorgeous, saturated wonderland lays before me, others itâs cold, gray, and i just focus on doing the next right thing. there are so many beautiful things alongside the hurt.
i meticulously planned each of my girls against all odds. at 25 i wanted to have a baby with my husband but i was always told i couldnât carry/have kids based on biological reasons. when i did finally get pregnant, after all the issues staying pregnant with her, i was told i couldnât have kids yet again.
after my husband got a reversal, and i lost a pregnancy, i became pregnant with my second daughter. almost 5 years ago now.
now that my dear family friend (that helped raise me and taught me unconditional love) has passed, i feel a deep sadness and regret. i wish covid hadnât happened and i could have visited more. i wish i didnât have to start my life all over from scratch, homeless and depressed even before covid. after years of isolation, i forgot about all of the people that i loved. the people that loved me. i suppose it made it easier to survive through that stretch of time. itâs much less painful if you really have no one else.
i now know i have a lot of someone elses. and itâs totally normal that humans need that. itâs important and itâs beautiful.
so i am feeling thankful for my daughters. we are each here together and that is truly my dream come true. and itâs ok to be sad at the same time because i hate imagining a life without my friend that passed.
whatâs yours?
iâve been a little MIA lately⌠any time my regular schedule is changed, like for a trip, school break, etc, i get so behind. every exciting project iâve been obsessing over gets forgotten. something about object permanence. then i have to start all over and it takes awhile to get back into my routine.
relatable? adhd thing? iâm not sure.
as a side note, i just made a full page of logo variations for a client and my illustrator crashed. this never happens. eek.
