There was something so great about her work, I am in love with the layering and the fact that she covers the whole piece with an epoxy resin was so cool to me. The look of glass. here is my favorite piece of hers:<br />

Her first step is to make a collage</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Sometimes on Etsy you run into people who rather not bother with you unless your going to buy. <br />
I am so thankful to her for being open.<br />
So I thought maybe it would be nice to share a little about her to all of you. <br />
Please enjoy and visit her shop on Etsy!<br />
<br />
Also here is her main web site page: <a href="http://www.ameliafurman.com/">www.ameliafurman.com</a><br />
<br />
Bio: <br />Amelia grew up in rural, central Pennsylvania amidst pastoral scenes of farms, fields, and forests. Nature has captured her attention for as long as she can remember. Visual arts were also a dominant force in Amelia’s life from an early age. After graduating with a degree in visual art from Indiana Wesleyan University in 2003, Amelia began to explore how she could use paint to express her love of the natural world. <br />
<br />Amelia’s background in printmaking and illustration has heavily influenced the direction of her work. Ms. Furman works in a combination of paper collage, text and thin layers of acrylic paint. Using a selection of documents, vintage images, handwritten text, and symbols associated with the painted image, Amelia reminds the viewer that places and objects have many layers of meaning, memory, and beauty.<br /><br />Amelia displays her work throughout Pennsylvania in traditional and non-traditional venues and her works can be found in private collections nationwide. Ms. Furman resides outside of Philadelphia with her husband and son.<br />

So today I was just messing around on my computer checking out my stats on my Etsy...<br />
And out of no where as my eyes followed the categories I see a big #1...<br />
I do a double take and there...it was...<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>1 sold</strong></span><br />

<strong><span style="font-size: large;"></span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;"></span></strong><br />
Now I have sold stuff on Etsy...Like tiles, a few custom shoes, and odds and ends.<br />
But for some strange reason I just have been feeling down about not getting any of my new art work out. It makes you wonder if its not really that great, maybe your new style isn't as important as you thought, or that maybe paintings are too hard to sell on Etsy. <br />
<br />
But all the doubt was washed away with one sold piece. <br />
Why did this piece make me feel validation? <br />
I just love this piece, It is one I will miss having hung in on my wall. <br />
Its one that make me feel like I could make it as an artist with more than just shoes. <br />
<br />
And! To top off the excitement, The person who bought it had such kind things to say.<br />
He told me that he loves my stuff! (ahhh I have a fan!)<br />
He said that he was eyeing another piece too! I know I know don't get to excited,<br />
But its hard because he was so nice and funny about it.<br />
He mentioned that he had to have it, that it will be his, all in time! then he put: (insert evil laugh) <br />
<br />
Thanks art supports for rocking it and making a silly artist and mom feel like all her hard work is paying off! <br />
<br />
TAaa TAaa<br />

Thanks for your support!Sweet Issueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17469489824655333971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1819156605803667033.post-60312381088017312442012-07-06T17:47:00.004-07:002012-07-06T17:47:58.756-07:00What have I become!I never thought I would become that person that gets caught up in making art because I needed to sell! I was the one that felt like I needed to make it so I could stay mentally and emotionally well. <br />
Because of my new life changes (having a daughter, a husband, and being out of work, and my husband having to go from job to job) I recently have lost my way!<br />
<br />
I fear that. I got disparate and started taking any art job I could or thought I could do. It really made me pretty overwhelmed and sad in the long run and to add to that it's not like I gained the money I needed anyway. What have I done! sigh I need to focus on making my art because I have a wonderful idea or because I feel something strong pulling to create. I keep leaving behind the true meaning of my self. <br />
<br />
Fear leads me. <br />
How do people stay close and keep in touch with one a nothers feelings and needs when all you can think about is keeping your head above water. The worst part about it is that we are lucky with all we have. <br />
<br />
I think the famous monster is creeping in my ear and yelling at me. I feel like I have this need to be found...but truthfully if I was "found" what would it be for? It's so hard to hold on to ONE thing. I like doing so many things. I always thought I was a lazy person but truthfully my fault is that I am a perfectionist in a way, If its not right I just don't do it. <br />
<br />
Practice is needed in my sewing! <br />
Pride is needed in my shoes!<br />
Love in needed in my paintings!<br />
and I must ABOVE ALL<br />
put more Time, Honesty, and Faith in my family!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
My Art was good and strong when I was.<br />
<br />
I feel deflated and like I drag my hands to the table. <br />
What am I missing?<br />
<br />
I talk and talk and talk about my issues, so change them!<br />
I try and try and try to get somewhere, even though I feel my self going in circles!<br />
<br />
ITS TIME TO TAKE CARE OF MY SELF FOR A FEW DAYS AND FOCUS ON THE REAL HEART IN MY ART!Sweet Issueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17469489824655333971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1819156605803667033.post-16817765416414301282012-06-30T14:33:00.000-07:002012-06-30T14:33:02.640-07:00New things are on their way!<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
I am starting a small facebook group called Art Attack.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/461402853871930/">https://www.facebook.com/groups/461402853871930/</a><br />
join us if you like to take on this adventure!<br />
<br />
I have been sitting here thinking about all the people I know that do really great things. <br />
Some shot photos, some bake and decorate cakes, some make websites and logos, there are painters and people that can sew some amazing things! <br />
<br />
I want there to be a way to show off our websites, stores, craft shows, art shows, logos, blogs, and whatever you/they want!<br />
<br />
Its hard to make it in the world of art no mater what type it is or how popular. <br />
I think that with a wild group of people together we can reach new places and learn new trades. Someday when the world is whatever it ends up being how many of you will know how to sew? cook? or paint? <br />
<br />
These great things are becoming dead and old fashion, at the same time the old fashion things are coming back stronger than ever...but because of its trendy ways it costs a lot of money to learn these things. <br />
<br />
So lets get together and trade for lessons or just be kind a share what we know. <br />
have a question about something art like...you googled and looked and can't find it! Well I bet you one of the people in the group might know...and if they don't I bet they will be willing to learn with you.<br />
<br />
Experiment with these people! <br />
Take these people and find new inspiration. Some of you live far and others are right next to each other and don't even know it. <br />
<br />
Become Friends in real life! <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The truth about me as an artist is that I have many me's in the room as I create. Its not like multiple personality or anything...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But I go through my emotions and feel out so many feelings all at once and one at a time. This may sound impossible or distracting.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And yes sometimes it is distracting having feelings of super happy excitement and euphoria, then dashing down to uncertainty's and fear. I created this little strange photo arrangement to show you just a few of what I live with. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ol>
<li>Happy, euphoric, excited, proud, certain, sure, real, hyper, and busy</li>
<li>Anger, Rage, overwhelmed, tired, hungry, all together a big middle finger to all!</li>
<li>Sad, Depressed, ashamed, disappointed, pathetic, not worth anything, and crushed</li>
<li>paranoid, freaked out, worried, scared, trapped, alone, zoned, numb, and stuck</li>
</ol>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I do not write this to make you feel sorry for me, I write this so you can better understand that who I am greatly influences everything around me. My art, my life, my child, my husband, my cat, hell...even the weather...hee hee.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I want you to know that this is something real and its not as simple as just saying hello I have bipolar. There is yoga, meditation, vitamins, medications, support from friends and family...there is so so much that goes into keeping someone in some kind of balance. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZkzY_IkV6mzr4C3euq4SWwjxaIZmo2Akpp-PkgeTpIEMSCmVDo-EiZkAfSVP_-fS4B7tvVRyXD6kyRO3zKyitRbxY1ohWX1kiTlNylB4oodPz70opTCwEqL0ZOyTU6DeNnqtnuNJ2aTQ/s1600/IMG_20120605_103629.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZkzY_IkV6mzr4C3euq4SWwjxaIZmo2Akpp-PkgeTpIEMSCmVDo-EiZkAfSVP_-fS4B7tvVRyXD6kyRO3zKyitRbxY1ohWX1kiTlNylB4oodPz70opTCwEqL0ZOyTU6DeNnqtnuNJ2aTQ/s320/IMG_20120605_103629.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you have bipolar don't worry your not alone. If you want to talk just do it. sometimes people will over react and say..."whats wrong with you! why are you letting so many know you have this?" "aww are you sad...we all get sad just don't kill your self" "chill out it's not that hard" "your doing well...just keep your chin up" there is endless things both good and bad...or even harmful people will say to you. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
and...</div>
<div>
at times you may say these things to your self. you will fight with your self all the time, every second. You will ask your self things, you will over think things, you will worry your self to a frenzy. Its hard and feels impossible to calm down or get your head together and "act like an adult" </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Artist are said to be selfish and child like. well...I both artist and bipolar...so yes sometimes </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>I ACT LIKE A BIG BABY!</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
but what you need to understand is I really can't help it at times. I feel lost, alone, unsure, and like I am failing. I know that is a "normal" feeling everyone has. When I feel that way it is to the extreme. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Just understand I do my best. My issues are here and I am aware of them. Change is not easy.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I know that I must stop trying to prove my self to everyone and prove my self to ME! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have learned to love most of my sides...The one that is the hardest is the controlling angry resentful me.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
One step at a time.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My advice...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
"Find something you love that your good at that you can escape to and just feel who you are and know that you are "normal" you are who you are."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjewNBSxClXo4k96V9yyQ7wiI15qUm_9UtQpwKhXyKorxz4KfqxZurtVrwRC8nfDQYbgSSqeTJsbtW3-cWpJUgqJ813Ifv1OV94L2BTul0VwxEr5ST8uM2Ex_fOx5APjrDrRRi5wVCdbDY/s1600/multi+me.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="249" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjewNBSxClXo4k96V9yyQ7wiI15qUm_9UtQpwKhXyKorxz4KfqxZurtVrwRC8nfDQYbgSSqeTJsbtW3-cWpJUgqJ813Ifv1OV94L2BTul0VwxEr5ST8uM2Ex_fOx5APjrDrRRi5wVCdbDY/s320/multi+me.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"Multi Me"</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Maybe this won't help anyone...maybe just one stranger will read this or maybe someone will read this and tell me I am wrong for sharing such personal stuff. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But it is real. Why should I "stay in the closet" with my mental illness? </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So you will like me more? </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So you wont have to really know?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So I don't become a "crazy" person to others...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Bipolar may not be simple...But this blog post is. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Its just me</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
An artist, at home mom, wife, and college student...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Expressing her self.</div>

Can't help it. Being able to touch and feel the creations. Finding old clothes you love and turning them into something new...a doll, a pillow, a bag, or even a new shirt!</div>
<div align="center">
So I have returned to my roots of sewing!</div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
Okay it is pretty much like the old saying about getting on a bike...but at the same time,</div>
<div align="center">
I don't remember so much of how to do stuff. so I am kinda just going with the flow on this. </div>
<div align="center">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I think it turned out pretty cute...so far. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made a few mistakes...I ended up sewing part of her white skirt inside...so i had to pull it out and it ripped a little. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also stuffed it to tight and ripped a small hole in the arm. I should have known better than that. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<strong><u>ITS BEEN ALMOST 6 YEARS since I have sewn!</u></strong></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So learn from your mistakes...it will be a month before I am even going to try selling any.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
only exceptions is close friends and family...becuase they will get something good and at the same time I can practice!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So now I have to decied how to do the hair and face. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have no idea what to do for the hair...but i really want to use my painting skills on the face. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we shall see!</div>

<br />
Why would I think this is possible?<br />
<br />
Some say that painting is another way to pray. One day I painted some deep stuff about my self...then it happened right after I painted it...needless to say I still have not finished that painting. It really kind of freaked me out. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Later I had a friend who sadly lost her baby during pregnancy and was very very depressed. They started talking about trying again. the doctor said it would be hard for her to get pregnant again. So I made a Huge painting of some symbols and feelings so she could put it in her house and that it could bring her a new child...week later, She was pregnant again and that child was born healthy and happy!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is a painting almost no one has seen I think!</div>
<br />
<br />
So my good friend has brain cancer and it is getting worse. They gave her a month left...I decide one night when I couldn't sleep that I would just start painting a huge painting in hopes that I could reverse this! Take away her pain, create new healthy growth, and save her life.<br />

A Beauty is reborn!</div>

Sigh...Immature maybe, silly, naive, or even rude?! <br />
<br />
Well since I started painting I have been posting confessions about my self on facebook with each photo. (I need to make an art facebook)<br />
Shortly after I started this painting...her tumor had shrunk dramatically...<br />
(I can't get excited...but it was cool)<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong><u>So what's next?</u></strong> </div>
<br />
I first painted that the wise owl would remove the pain and take away the tumor.<br />
I am now working on the new growth and happy atmosphere that I hope for her.<br />
<br />

<br />
Sometimes we complain about research projects, about reading books on the lives of others, about having to learn something new...mostly out of being lazy, feeling like there is no real reason, or that we know how to do it well enough already.<br />
<br />
But...I found out today that I used the information I learned in a way to help out a great friend. We should try harder to learn from others. We should notice when someone does good or overcomes the war in their life. <br />
<br />
I think we all float along with worry. I feel like who am I to try and help someone else, what can I say that would change the world in their eyes. <br />
But today I was exposed to this in a new way. I can only hope my daughter and husband see this side of me. I can hope that others understand that I am more than just someone struggling to be an "artist".<br />
<br />
Every once in a while I say something that turns out well, something that feels huge...<br />
Today that happened. So what ...I am patting my self on the back. We don't do that often enough I think. Giving in to the sadness and the hopelessness is so easy.<br />
<br />
My friend was feeling beat down and lost. He felt like he needed to keep running to the one place that protected him...a place that was familiar and comfortable. In doing this he was making the same choices and trying to find someone to help fix his pain. I decide to tell him this was poisonous and not healthy. This is not easy to tell someone. In my mind I thought, Am I sure I should call him out on this? Is this my place to say anything? <br />
Well I choose to use the words of a wise man I have been learning about. <br />
<br />

What a wonderful man...I adore him and his work! I would love to meet him someday.<br />
Someone who says, <strong><span style="color: purple;"><em>"He is the happiest artist alive!"</em></span></strong><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I choose a few quotes from this man for my friend...just to pass on the idea of moving forward and not being scared. I have so much respect for him.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="content noh" id="id.229884147111578">
<strong><span style="color: purple;"><em>“The advice I like to give young artists, or really anybody who'll listen to me, is not to wait around for inspiration. Inspiration is for amateurs; the rest of us just show up and get to work. If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightning to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself. Things occur to you. If you're sitting around trying to dream up a great art idea, you can sit there a long time before anything happens. But if you just get to work, something will occur to you and something else will occur to you and something else that you reject will push you in another direction. Inspiration is absolutely unnecessary and somehow deceptive. You feel like you need this great idea before you can get down to work, and I find that's almost never the case.” <br /> ― Chuck Close</em></span></strong></div>
<br />
Now the funny thing is part of this quote scares even me. I thrive off the idea that I need to find some inspiration...but the truth is...when I do just jump into drawing or painting sometimes it sucks and other times its way better than I could imagine...but either way I learn and I still do something that day!<br />
<br />
The other quote I blessed this poor guy who was willing to ask me what to do (hehe) was this:<br />
<br />
<div class="content noh" id="id.342801649108882">
<strong><span style="background-color: white; color: purple;"><em>"I've always thought that problem-solving is highly overrated and that problem creation is far more interesting."</em></span></strong></div>
<div class="subject hidden_elem">
<br /></div>
<div class="content noh" id="id.431545540206415">
</div>
<strong><em><span style="color: #a64d79;">if you want to react personally you have to move away from other people's ideas.</span></em></strong><br />
<br />
<div class="subject hidden_elem">
<br /></div>
<div class="content noh" id="id.160056204122012">
</div>
<strong><em><span style="color: #a64d79;">you have to back yourself into your own corner where no one else's solutions apply and ask yourself to behave as an INDIVIDUAL.</span></em></strong><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;">So after all this he put </span><br />
"..."<br />
<br />
Then he said Thank you. <br />
I realized that what we learn stays with us...<br />
<br />
It is our choice to use it to help or hinder others. It is our moments in life that we can take what we have learned and put it to use or to just let it slip out the other ear and fade away. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I want to help! I want to feel emotional! I want to create! </div>

So I am pretty proud. some of the colors are a little off because they dry darker then when they are mixed. some of the proportions still didn't get corrected in time...and the leaves are unfinished.</div>

The dog eating an ice cream cone floating on with the balloons statement "feel the love" is me trying to realize to let loose a little and to not be so serious all the time.</div>

the crow painting the dark scary woods is more of a self portrait. sometimes even the bird no one understand and feels is a pest might become something amazing. </div>

the girl in the crown being feed medicine, I feel like our world tries to raise our children by spoon feeding them what WE "think" they should become. she looks pretty unhappy to me. the royal life of what our society says our little girls need to be isn't what they always want to be. </div>

LIFE DOESN'T HAVE TO BE WHAT EVERYONE SAYS IT HAS TO BE FOR YOU.</div>

This painting is something I have been dreaming about making for 7 years.<br />
Wood 48x48 with picture wire and 2 lights attached to the back.<br />
There are holes I drilled in several sizes for the light to show through from the back to the front.<br />
This painting lights up like a night light!<br />
On the front I added some gems too!<br />
<br />
The people are either collage from things I found or hand painted with a lovely sculpted face. I painted the faces after they were fired.<br />

<br />
In our darkest moments in life things can get pretty cloudy and it can be hard to see what is really going on. I have dealt with suicide on many occasions in my life. It is something that is extremely hard to understand or find a way to be at peace. I miss seeing my dad's face, feeling his strong rough hands holding mine, his soft golden slightly curled hair, and most of all his laugh. The part that hurts the most is I can barely remember what he looks like or what his laugh sounds like. This hurts because the last thing you wanna do is forget things like that. He was my father...the man that taught me how to ride a motorcycle, shoot an old bottle with a 22, he built me a tree house, he climbed the biggest pepper tree on the land and made a tire swing just for me...I could go on forever but no use to you just yet. <br />
<br />
I have decided it is time to face another dark point and bring it to the light. I want to see his face again. The dark composition on my mind is what is going to make it hard. The idea of drawing or painting out my father's face with a hand holding a gun. his memories and life being wiped away with that one pull of the trigger. I sometimes wonder if my face flashed in his mind. If he thought of his little girl. I forgive him...It took years but I did. I don't think of him as a weak person or someone who was crazy. Suicide is real people it does happen. <br />
<br />
I am taking a beg. painting class at RCC also a figure painting class too. <br />
<br />
hope this helps out my new and deep idea. <br />
<br />
to be continued...<br />
<br />
Here is some wonderful photos and information on my dad:)<br />

<br />
The style of this dream was so raw and gritty it was amazing. it was like dreaming in a comic book. enjoy the twisted story my subconscious has placed before us. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The background was a dirty muddy watercolor of rusty colors and washes. Strong broken wire like outlines. Gritty splatters in the background. There was an old grumpy man who kept telling me I couldn't do things. He was very small, like the size of a child's stuffed toy. looked poisoned with anger. His skin was sick and wrinkled. The clothes he wore were like a smelly wounded homeless mans. He kept coming at me and laughing in my face with his smoke stained teeth. I finally decided I didn't need to take it anymore! So I picked him up and threw him down on a table top at what seemed to be a putrid bar scene. I smashed his body down like a rag doll several times. He continued to taunt me. My rage grew stronger. His face and small body lay broken. He looked at me and said u my child are nothing more than...before he could finish I threw him into the fireplace and watched him quickly vanish into a melting ash. Feeling scared and worried I would be arrested I told no one. I turn to see two people asleep tossing and turning in a booth. Laying there was a beautiful women...her face covered in dirty black smudges from all her hard work. A slight smile comes across her face. Behind her wedged between this woman's back and the booth was a child. A little girl...she must be lily. She looked like lily. I tuck them in and kiss the child. I say in a sad but sure tone, I must go now....<br /> <br />ENTERS PHONE RING!<br /> <br />I truly believe this dream was about me destroying my doubts and fears. This was intense.<br />
I was the woman who destroyed the evil. The rebel, the warrior! I was also the woman who was asleep with the baby. A hard working beauty. Sometimes I struggle with my feelings of being a good mom and still feeling like a beautiful women and a strong lady.<br />
<br />

Hello 2012! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome to my exciting new art of the year! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My 1st painting of the year and I am really in love with it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The funnest part is that the drawing it self... was a silhouette of myself smoking a cig on my balcony at my grandma's house. This drawing has been sitting around for years in a scary outline in charcoal. somehow the drawing didn't get rubbed off! So this is what happened:</div>

I soooooo Miss doing some Art.<br />
I have been throwing away so much of my time watching tv and cleaning. <br />
It's time to get my butt in motion and start doing something!<br />
<br />
What am I in the mood to do though? <br />
Painting, Drawing, Should I write something new? <br />
Maybe I should come up with a book demo. <br />
<br />
I was working hard on writing a children's book ...Then the wedding snuck up. <br />
I am so happy that all is done and well. <br />
So why am I doing nothing! <br />
My little one even takes long naps and falls asleep early! <br />
<br />
Sigh...I guess it will happen when it should happen.Sweet Issueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17469489824655333971noreply@blogger.com0
