Obviously not blogging. In my defense I did bruise the bone in my wrist making doing anything, including typing hurt quite bad. I also decided to use my magical powers (okay not really magic) and get rid of Vista off the laptop. Much to my surprise installing Windows 7 was far easier than I had hoped and the laptop is running better than it has in its life.
I have also been creating ornaments for my Etsy Shop and when I mean creating ornaments I mean lots of ornaments. I created 20 in four hours (really, insanity and I am having a blast).
I also started writing again after meeting some of the authors at Children’s Book Fest this past weekend I have this idea I am currently working on getting down on paper. If you follow me on Instagram you will know I had the opportunity to meet some famous children’s book authors this past weekend (Marc Brown, Peter Brown, Nick Bruel and James Dean).
The Princess with Kate McMullan (I Stink! I’m Dirty!)
The Princess with Marc Brown (Arthur’s Creator)
The Princess with Peter Brown (Children Make Terrible Pets – if you have not read this book it is AWESOME!)
The Princess with Nick Bruel (Bad Kitty Series)
The back of the kids heads and James Dean (Pete the Cat)
My phone is also dying a very slow painful death meaning I can’t write posts from my phone anymore. I actually wrote several from my phone curled up on the couch at night, now that the laptop is back that will probably resume. I honestly haven’t been “crafty” in the how-to sense I have been creating as an artist. I also lose sight of why I created my blog originally it was to keep track of my projects. I guess in a sense I am getting back to my roots showing progress photos of what I am working on.
