Heading Into Fall

Heading into fall, back to modeling for the art department. Still trying to find a job with more hours,. Haven't had much luck as of late. Still it is good to have the jobs that I do have. I will persist! Still in a bit of a fog after writing that grant, I took a risk and made it deeply personal. Oh ya that is right, I have no filter what so ever. That is the story of my life, I say too much or too little, never an inbetween. I have never achieved any sort of balance and that is my flaw! My thoughts are pretty scattered this morning as I am once again in personal upheaval. I have really been letting things that bother out of the bag as it were and I am not to sure how comfortable I am about that. Keeping my everything compartmentalized has served me well over the years...not so good now. Oh well this is my strange life and I will continue to live it. I need to stop feeling ashamed of being me and that is where the road takes a new turn! I will see how it goes.

Oh The Perils of Painting...

What a day prepping the walls for the show. It is being shown in an alternative space--bathroom instead of a traditional gallery. The only problem with the space was that it needed a good coat of paint. I cleared it out and started painting it today. I am little behind schedule, but the show will definately hang this week.  The physical act of painting a room with so many niches and corners almost drove me mad today. I prefer a nice big plain wall that I can completely roll out in a half hour or so, but to be able to have this show is a wonderful thing so I really don't mind the work. My back on the other hand feels differently LOL! It is a good feeling however to complete a project like this and know full well that I will be able to drift off to sleep easily. I have such a hard time sleeping these days. I am sure it is the usual stress etc...Tonight I will sleep well. Have a great Sunday evening.

It Was A Beautiful Day

It was such a beautiful day! More than just the weather of summer, two people unknown to each other, found out they were cancer free today. That made my day! Each day is such a gift and I for one have taken many of my days of health for granted. I am gonna try and not be soo pessimistic about the future of my life. Things will inevitably get better, at least I hope so anyway...Well not much else to add.
