Snowbody but you

I vote that they change the first day of the week to Tuesday, since Monday is legendary for announcing itself like an obnoxious, destructive child making one very aware that he's arrived for his weekly visit. He pulls your hair, pinches your fat, and usually leaves a mysteriously sticky mess behind. Sometimes, just remembering to do this is more difficult than it seems:

Eleven days into the new year and following my steps-to-reinvention (my fancy way of saying "resolutions") has been like walking a tight rope. The most important step, the one that I have to constantly remind myself to do, is the very first one:  Do what you think you can't.   I struggle with this, partly because I'm frightened at what I really can accomplish! Its almost revolutionary, once you realize that you're the only one standing in your own way.


With that said, I'm excited to say that I have some new fancies in the works for the shop! I'm up to my knees in jewelry projects and clay experiments, but after January, I've decided to take a little break from it. I've been itching to paint/draw and incorporate my graphic art into prints, greeting cards, and collages. Expanding the sections in my shop is something I need to focus on, and my second step to reinvention will hopefully help me do just that:  Get organized. No seriously, get organized!

SNEAK PEEK:

I prefer cloudy days to sunshine and thus, weather inspiration! I like the simplicity, but I can't help but feel like its missing something. Hmm...

Speaking of weather, I hope the clouds above you (wherever you are) aren't spitting snow like the ones above Cleveland. When the world is bright white with winter, I walk through it with my head down. Not because I don't think its beautiful, I just prefer my snow shoes instead:
