She's Baaackk....at least for now

Call me a slacker, but much has happened since the last time I blogged....been lost in the chaos that makes up my life. Good and bad times to be had. Mistakes made, lessons learned, fun had. I've spent alot of time thinking and pondering...and trying to live day to day...That's not always easy. I finally got a job. Not as many hours as I'd hoped but at least there's money coming in.

Been missing this face:

he's gotten so big in the past 6 months. They really do grow up fast....It's funny cause it's Tiff's baby, and i call him my nephew even though theres no real relation-yet it FEELS like he is.
And i miss this face:

I've been thinking alot about this little girl. Ava Rayne. I wonder how big she's gotten. I miss her laughter and her smile so much... :;sigh::

Been slacking in the craft department...made a few things:

havent really used many pictures....I am working on a 2011 book, which I've included photos in, but no stories...I guess i still just feel out of place and afraid to document these things....Tiff tells me no matter what I should document them, because good or bad, they'll be worth reading about later in life, bc i just may laugh about it all in the end. She's got a point. Now if only I can make myself do it.

Found this kickass idea on tumblr a while back:

Nail art that rocks. It actually came out just like the pic i found. Totally impressed.

And then there's the season..The season of crawfish...My lovelies....They're soooooo goooooood.

I think I've had crawfish 5 or 6 times. Like whoa...the most I've had in a season yet...And it's not close to over...Mmmm...

And lastly, found this beauty at a friends house and had to snap a picture. Wish it were in my back yard..

And while I'm on a roll, due to my lack of making as much shit as I'd like to, i'm thinking about joining in on this class:
WATERCOLOR BLISS w/ Alisa Burke

Anyway...that's all I got for now...More to follow...

I find it amazingly strange how abruptly things can change.. in life, once comfort is found it's hard to separate comfort from happiness and distinguish between the two. Seasons change, as do people and as it can be an amazing growth to be acquired, it can also a whirlpool of emotions stirring into something much harder to grasp and make sense of..

On another note... my passion and desire to create is in full gear and I've been embracing it for all it's worth..

This is a a painting I did for Sara for her birthday. I have fallen in love with watercolor.. The way it just glides on the paper and the colors intensity can be altered with just a little water.. it's hard to make mistakes. Sometimes the mistakes made turn into the most beautiful expression..

*the W

I AM.

Yeah yeah...i was supposed to revamp this here blog...but this is as good as it gets for now...Not satisfied..more work to be done...let's see how that goes.

So even though I've been fighting the urge to write until this place was so fresh and so clean....intensely fullfilling my every desire to want to return here and pour my heart out on a more regular basis...but for now..this shall do...

I AM:

LISTENING: Mutemath & Porcupine Tree (plus this refreshing new playlist I've created....which has consumed me)
EATING: chinese deliciousness
DRINKING: Blue Moon

WEARING: skinny jeans & a forever 21 tank with a cozy sweater...

FEELING: restless..

WEATHER: rainy day..soothes me

WANTING: to figure out all of this shit that's got me twisted
NEEDING: to make some changes...
THINKING: about you..
ENJOYING: every little moment I can devour for all that it's worth
WONDERING: How i got here and where things will be in the next 6 months or so...

SOON TO BE under construction: hopefully

this here blog will be under construction soon. There are some visions I have for it. My brother's been teaching me photoshop-thanks bro! Hopefully Ill gain enough knowledge to actually utilize it. Plus i have stories to tell and i think a new refreshed blogfront will be a good start...i may not be able to wait until then to show and tell...so we shall see...cross your fingers for me if you read this.....
