I am in London at my soon-to-be home and my cats haven't yet fought with my housemate's cat - just a few hisses and stand-offs. And my new housemate likes my boys and now seems to want it to work as much as I do. AND I got a text from one of the bestest people I know yesterday, calling me by my Cellar name and saying she was just waiting for her log-in to be confirmed. Fingers crossed she'll be here posting soon.
Oh and it's a Sunday, I'm posting and I have a cat on my lap. That's pretty damn good.

I am going to dinner tonight with a friend I haven't seen for a while.
She may "force" me to drink a margarita.

A beautiful Spring day with my beautiful wife and my two bootiful young'uns and some good friends.
Knowing that we are going to the beach in two weeks. For a week. Knowing that I will finish three projects before going to the beach so that I can relax for once. Oh, and congrats on the new house, CF. New houses are the bomb. We bought a new one last April and still enjoy it like we bought it yesterday. It was my tenth anniversay present to SWMBO.

A freshly cleaned house, a nice Florida afternoon rain shower, and the documentary One Six Right on television.

You have both talent and skill. "Jungle Hunt" is fascinating.

Thank you, and thanks for checking back! I really need to post more on my blog. I wanted to talk more about the large piece I am about to begin, but it was midnight and I was exhausted.
Anyway, I may quit my job, here soon so I can paint full time. |

This being the "What makes you happy?" thread, quitting jobs always made me happy! And often praise can seem disingenuous, but I've had a bit of training meself. Is it o.k. if an engineer appreciates art?

The initial quitting makes me happy, but the aftereffects are not so much fun. (Panic about what to do for money?)
Thanks for appreciating my art, Hyoi. It truly means alot...especially from an engineer. |

Have you considered opening your own studio? Bringing in a few students? Might be something you could operate on weekends until your clientele builds up.
There's truly nothing so satisfying as having your job and joy be the same thing.
