An apology


Super cranky lately. Unsure if its the change in the meds, the cold, the fact that break is over, or just having too much on my plate, but I feel like every little thing is ticking me off (thing, not people). I'm distracted. I'm losing things. I can't find the humor in anything. I can't even socialize normally.

Anyway, writing this as a sort of an apology to those who have to interact with me on a daily basis. I'm sorry I'm such a space case this month. I'm sorry if I seem distant. And I certainly don't mean to offend anyone or say anything thoughtless or hurtful. I worry about this, because I feel like my brain/mouth filter might be a little broken right now. Along with a lot of other things.

I'll get it together. I always do. Just, thanks for bearing with me in the meantime.

Signs You Might Be From Saskatchewan

Okay, okay, its been done a thousand times, I know. But I'm bored and a little homesick, so I'ma do it anyway: Signs You Might Be From Saskatchewan

1.) This . . .

. . .is a " little brisk"

2.) This ... 

. . . is t-shirt weather

3.) You have gotten drunk off of this. . .
 . . .repeatedly.

4.) Additionally, pilsner is not a variety of beer, its a brand name.

5.) Your car/truck/SUV/tractor/ ATV looks something like this:



6.) When someone asks you if you know Bob from Saskatchewan, the answer is probably yes. He's probably your uncle. 


7.) You never have trouble finding something green to wear on st. patrick's day. 


8.) You have spent more than an hour talking about the weather in one sitting.
9.) Six hours is a short drive
10.) Hills go down, not up. 
11.) You automatically give the awkward two-fingered steering wheel wave when you pass someone on a gravel road, regardless of whether you know them or not - - regardless of what province or country you might be in. 
12.) This . . .
. . . counts as a scenic drive.
13.) This . . .

... makes you feel a little nostalgic. 

14.) This is probably the best youtube video ever:

15.) This looks like home:

Light at the end of the tunnel



Lately I've been feeling a bit like I'm losing control. Like there's too much to do, too little time, and more importantly, too little energy to go around.

I just need to remember, this too shall pass. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

And Rainbows.
There are Rainbows.

Pine Pass


because you're never too old for an evening with crayons. 


Also, this lovely lady materialized during museology. I really need to work on paying attention.

My Day

A bunch of photos taken throughout the day, including a trip to the psychiatrists office, the education building, and my bed,  mashed together with some familiar frescoes. Really like how the colors turned out on this one.

Promise I'll start making real posts soon. In the meantime, I'm having too much fun making arts.

Shadow

Daddy gave me a new journally book to play with for Christmas. Isn't it purdy? 


So I promptly destroyed the first page! 



I called this little bit of collage "Shadow" because I basically looked up definitions of the word "shadow" and wrote them in various media/representations all over the page. Wheee!
