Made it through Christmas

Headed to Grandma's house for a few days of relatives and relaxation. The time seemed to fly by the past three days. I am not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. At least it will be a short week. I need to get some sleep.

Latest Painting

My Latest painting that I haven't taken a pic until now is still unfinished but close. I have a ton of painting still left to do for my xmas gifts so I don't think anyone will get them until after the new year. Stress of current job duties, expectations of new job duties and holidays are really anoying. I cannot wait until the weekend! I have had a ton on my mind. Had a nice relaxing bath with some goodies I got from the xmas party today. Getting off work tomorrow at noon so I can't complain about my weekend break too much!

Ah, so long!

Ah, it has been so long since I have posted! A LOT has been going on. Holiday shopping...more now than I have done all year probably, stress about new part of job coming up in January and excitement, and seeing friends in Fort Worth. Signed up for painting class again in the spring semester. I'm going to miss my Saturday classes for the next month. Haven't really gone out much lately because I haven't really felt like it. I need to start my holiday painting, I am really behind.

Art Con 2

Thursday, it froze outside. I was tempted to head over to the Longhorn Ballroom to start my painting, but I thought better of it. On the news there were cars sliding all over the highways. Grr, I hate driving in ice and freezing rain. So I headed to Home Depot and bought plywood to start on my piece that night. Luckily on Friday morning they were still accepting pieces. Friday night, I volunteered for the much awaited Art Conspiracy 2 hosted at the historic Longhorn Ballroom. I got the job as an art handler. I took money from people who bought the auctioned work. There were so many interesting pieces but none blew me away. Overall, it was a good time. I think the highest sold work was $660!

Despite nasty congestion from earlier last week, I am feeling better. I like the cold like a cat likes water.
