I'm taking it easy. I think I've been working too hard. I messed up that order & it made me realize that I invest far too much of my self-worth in my artwork. That works great when the work goes well, but when I mess up I take it so personally that it gets me down. That's...probably not healthy. Also, not sleeping isn't healthy. And not working out, that's unhealthy too.
So! Today I slept in a LOT and it felt great. I'm going to the gym to renew my membership ( They were so desperate to keep me that I just negotiated a great deal; $19 a month...for a full gym membership! That's freaking unheard-of) & I'll do a short set to get back in gear. The great thing about muscles; once you build 'em, they come back quickly with just a bit of effort.
I also need to buy a new rocking chair. Mom's sciatica is acting up again & she needs a hard rocking chair to sit in. I gave her my old one, but I really ought to have one here 'cause she spends so much time at my house. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a plain, good hardwood rocker? Fortunately we have an "Oak Express" not too far away (I LOVE the look of oak...it's so golden & warm) so I called & yes, they have rockers! I'm going to pick up a new chair & that makes me happy. Mom will have something comfortable to sit in for "Survivor" tonight.
& then, maybe later, I'll work on something. Or, maybe not. :-)
Oh! Really adorable thing: I finally figured out how to get a picture of myself up on DeviantArt (you have to load it in the Deviant ID category...duh! I'm on a very gradual learning curve, there). So, last night I loaded a pic of myself there & the comments are hilarious! Everyone thinks I look like a kid (& that's a new pic too...just took it in December). Hee! I am gleefully planning to let them all know I'm 43. ^__^"
These are all good things...
