need to redirect the way my life is going!!!!

There is just too much going on in my life!!!!!
Talk about your brain overload.
I have figured out what I want out of life I am making the following list to remind my self.
1. Be a great MOMMY
2. Be a great Wife
3.Be a established Collage Artist
4.Go back to school to get an art degree
5. Open a gallery and place for kids and grownups to hang and have studios at reasonable price or (free after school for kids) the average poor artist can afford cause everyone should be given a chance.

Now the plan of action:
Get rid of anything that does not pertain to my goals in life.
Really listen to my kids and give them wonderful memories
Be a supportive and loving wife to my hubby.
Get my artwork out there for people to see and try to do art everyday.
Start looking into art schools or community colleges.
Try to look into ways to help fund my gallery and art community center.
Start budgeting the household money and start saving :)
Well that is my rambles for today.
Off to clean up my workroom and work on atcs.
Have a wonderful day!!!!

Snow and Atc's

What a wonderful day we had yesterday. It started snowing at 10 am and snowed all day and most of the night and left some beautiful snow on the ground. And it is still here today and snowed a little more this morning and earlier this afternoon. My hubby was working on our entertainment center he is building it is so beautiful will put a pic when it is done. I did not get much done read a book I got in the mail today "Artist Trading Cards an anthology of Atc's" It is a wonderful book with alot of atc to check out and learn a few techniques and get several peoples take on them. :) I just love Atc's its my newest passion. My 13yr old daughter is starting to show an interest in them too which make this mom very happy. Put me in the mood to work on some but need to finish up some other swaps first. LOLWell tonight going to watch Monday night football with my dh or Monster house, monster garage, and American Chopper some of our favorite shows on tv. :)
Have a good night!!!!!!

ART?????

What is art???
Is it a feeling an artist has???
What an artist has laying around???
Has the artist been inspired by someone or something???
Does the artist just want to play and feel free???
Ponder this the next time you say someones art sucks.
Cause what you don't like may just be someones heart and soul.
And remember someone may look at your art and be breaking your heart :)

WHAT IS ART TO YOU ??????

where does the time go :|


There never seems to be enough time in our day. So much to do so little time. Sometimes I wish time could freeze so we all could get a little more done in the little time we have. Being a Caffeine junky sure does help to accomplish so much more LOL ;) Posted by Hello

Monday was fun!!!

Today I spent the day with my hubby. We watched a movie, I finished reading the 3rd Harry potter on cd. In the afternoon my whole family had eye doctor appointments and found out that my vision sucks and both my older children need glasses.

Hubby and I had our monday night football date night we meet friends at a sports bar and watch the football game. Eagles and Cowboys game was pretty good.

We got home a little after 11 and crashed in bed.

Had no creativity time today. :)
