Oh the places you'll go

Thu Nov 12, 2009, 7:02 AM
No. We're not going to have a discussion about Dr.Seuss, as interesting as I know that would be. I have however, noticed that pretty much everyone who blogs has at one point or another had an entry with that title. Hmm...

I also realized today that it has been over a year since I posted any art on here. That makes me feel a little bad, especially given the number of things I'm supposed to be making for other people. :/ In my defense the past year has been more than a little crazy and while I am working on many, many art related things I only get a few minutes here and there to devote any time to them. There's no telling when things will be done. Mainly because this little creature right here: [link] has been awfully demanding lately.

Having her, moving to a new town, buying a new house along with an increase in my husbands work load/hours, even though it did come with two raises, just hasn't left time for much else. But my husbands hours change next week and the baby and I won't be spending all of our time here alone anymore so hopefully I can squeeze in a little time to get things done! Not that anyone cares or reads this! =p

I suppose I could always take that as a sign to drop the requests that have been made of me. Hmm...

Eventually I will get something posted. I've been working on a ton of stuff but I can't seem to work on just one thing right now, which is basically getting me nowhere. Add to that the fact that I'm 7 & 1/2 months pregnant, stuck on the couch all day and that we're moving in another week and a half to another town in a house that we're hoping to find in August we can buy and well, things are kind of crazy! Everything has been about preparing for the baby and trying to buy a house. And Matt got a raise last week so, yay for that!

So this summer has been kind of bad for art of any kind. I did, however, get a new camera on my birthday and it's pretty sweet. But I've only got to use once because I'm not really allowed to get out at the moment. :( Hopefully once the baby comes I can pack her around with me and we can finally make use of the silly thing! It's an awesome camera and it really sucks that I haven't been able to use it. If nothing else I'll just go sit in the yard and take pictures of the grass and the apple tree once we've moved. ;p

I think that's about it for an update from me but I hope you're all having a great summer!

The Going's On

Sat May 2, 2009, 6:48 AM
I haven't uploaded a single thing since August. I didn't realize it had been so long. :/ It's kind of sad considering I log into dA every day. Normally I would have had photo's to upload, which is where the bulk of my artistic interest (outside of writing) lies. Except for every 50 pictures I take with my camera I get, if I'm lucky, 1 that turns out. It wasn't a great camera to begin with but it was nice enough. Unfortunately I can't afford a new one and I really don't know when or if I'll ever be able to. And that brings my other news.

I'm five months pregnant. Which is a very good thing! But it also means I'm broke and probably going to be broke for a very, very long time because my husband happens to love his low paying job and I'm not allowed to work right now. And probably not for a good while after the baby gets here unless I work from home. That was one thing the camera would have been good for. I had more than one person wanting me to take pictures for them before it crapped out but I obviously can't do that now! Mostly it sucks because I won't have a camera to take pictures of the baby with. And that's just very, very wrong.

So, we have a baby on the way! We found out a couple of weeks ago that we're having a girl :) So, we're doing what little we can to prepare for that, she's supposed to be here on Sept. 23. But we're also trying to move in the next couple of months to a house in a smaller town near here so we're a little limited on what we can do to get ready for the baby! Plus, we're broke as usual. But it looks like this is going to be a very busy and very tiring summer!

This is not to say I'm not working on art because I am but being pregnant has slowed me up a lot, and been very interesting in relation to the diabetes, in part because I had to move my computer to the coffee table and the couch is the most uncomfortable place in the entire apartment. But there's nowhere else to move to while we're in this dump. So pray that we get out of here!

It would be nice to be somewhere safer, closer to friends and where I can be creative. This place is part of hell I swear. Which is probably why the SWAT team is always breaking into various neighbors apartments and police are chasing people down in front or ours, guns drawn, all the time. It's not a very safe or healthy place. I don't want to bring a kid back to this dump. That and we're allergic to it because of all the mold. It's been fabulous. Really.

And I'll be 30 on the 4th :/ That's MONDAY. O_o I'm not supposed to be that old!

Anyway, I don't really know if anyone reads these journals I post but I thought I'd do a new one just in case since I actually have some good things to share for a change. =p

My Problem

Fri Jul 18, 2008, 8:15 PM
I have a serious problem. I really do. There is a severe lack of updates in my gallery. There's an even more severe lack of updates in my journal. It's really not because I'm boring (ok, sometimes I am). But it's not exactly the lack of updates that I consider to be my problem.

The real problem is that I have about thirty images I'm working on right now; drawings, designs, paintings, manipulations. That's a problem. Because I'm not working on one so I can finish it and get to the others. No, no, that would make too much sense. Instead I'm working on them all at once.

This makes the work go very slowly. I know this. I really do. But I'm still doing it. It's much like my writing, I have to work on what's inspiring me when it's inspiring me or I won't ever work on it at all. And my muse is apparently a fickle creature. Though not even she can be entirely blamed. I don't get to work on these projects nearly so much as I would like unfortunately.

This is a problem. I need to get something done. I need to get a lot of something's done.

Hate

Mon Mar 10, 2008, 9:54 PM
I have come to the conclusion that deviantArt hates me. The site has been almost entirely unnavigable for about a month now. If I'm on the site for more than a few minutes I can't do anything else on my computer. It slows down and freezes everything. I can't browse other sites, play games, work on art, nothing. Because dA needs more ad's and my computer doesn't like them. So unfortunately I won't be around much. Because I can't afford a subscription right now. So if you tagged me, I won't be doing that. If you don't get comments from me when you normally do it's because I'm having problems yet again or I've gotten so frustrated with the whole thing that I'm just not on. Which sucks.

And to top it all off I had three requests to post. Then my cat got to them. I don't have three requests to post anymore.

I'm not happy.
