This is a lean couple of months because I need to buy a bunch of things (like, curtains and a video card, and an mp3 player and a phone...ok so I didn't say they were all actual necessities) so I am going to TRY not to buy any craft supplies...for... as long as I can stand it... If you are interested in some kind of commission please let me know!

Also I have been trying to exercise more and have devotions in the morning, and all those New Year's Resolution sort of things. So far so good.

Also, I just realized that the good deviantART admin has changed "Artisan Crafts> Jewelry" (which is where some 80+ of my deviations are) to "Artisan Crafts> Jewelry> Pins/necklaces/bracelets/anklets/rings/etc/etc so I ought to go through and recategorize a ton of my deviations.

Oh well, I'm still thankful. ;)

I'm also VERY THANKFUL FOR YOU!  :D
You make my day.

I spent craft night making an ugly thing out of clay. Sometimes I think "Well when I paint it, it will suddenly look better" - I think this because I lie to myself a lot. :lol:

Hrrm, nope, can't think of anything real to put in here.
Tell me what you're up to/anything you feel like. Or tell me something I should draw.
Yeah I know I still need to draw Spin some more.
I actually doodle Spin all the time, I just don't finish the art to "postable" status.

*though I am pretty sure it is international, that makes an awkward acronym.

I haven't had any good dreams lately - anyone else ever feel like have forgotten how to dream? o_O
I don't just mean lack of lucidity. I just find dreams very fun/interesting. :)

Aaaaugh there are not enough hours in the day for all the cool hobbies I want to pursue!

Oh and I played games and bought stuff.

I am so happy to (virtually) know you all. :)
God has brought me through another year with lots of tears (especially thinking of that nose surgery) and laughter, and is constantly trying to get me to lean on Him & let him guide me more than I do!
