Hold your breathe




Ok I admit it. I am a procrastinator. When I am creating art I seem to thrive under the threat of a deadline.




For example, I was in a swap for an altered bag which was due in Connecticut on Saturday (2/23). I have been signed up since the first of the year. When did I get it in the mail? Tuesday the 19th and to top it off on Wednesday it got returned to me for more postage. So I jumped into my car and run it to the USPS added the postage. Holding my breathe that it would get there on time.




Wellllllll.....it did but it was the last bag to arrive. Ok this is the part where I commit to being more timely. Yeah right.....stay tuned to see how it goes.

In the beginning.......

Ok I always have a hard time with introductions. I waffle between sounding arrogant or self deprecating. I wish I could just jump in and not have to do it but it seems rude not to let you know why I am entering the blogosphere.

Mainly, because people tell me I should. Or they ask if I blog. Now don't think me a lemming and doing what the crowd does but some of these people I trust and admire so I thought why not.

Another reason is.....I do a lot of art and this is a great way to share it.....track it and archive it.....

Another reason....I like to rant and always have an opinion.........

Another reason I am a news junkie and I know everyone wants to know my opinion....

Another reason is keeping a journal has always been a great mental health tool and why not do it this way.

See I told you I liked to rant.
