There are absolutely not enough hours in a day to get everything done!
So here is where things are at. First- the studio. This week I bought a fancy new doorknob for the glass door. The old doorknob left a few marks on the door itself so I have to touch up the paint slightly but otherwise the door is done. Check. The walls have been stripped of all pictures and I have some paint chips up on the wall for me to decide on a colour. I’m pretty sure that I have narrowed it down so it will just be a case of prepping the walls and buying the paint.
My husband and I also discussed a bit about what will stay in the room and what will move out and where it will go. I’m feeling really good about the space once I get it looking and feeling the way that I want. And I got notice that my curtains and rod are ready for pick-up so I will get those tomorrow. Yay!
Second- my art. I’m still working away at my next big project. It is one of those quite intricate ones that you can spend a few hours on at a time but it takes awhile before you start to see progress. So I don’t think it will be done anytime soon. I want it done by the end of the summer/early fall so hopefully I will get there. I may intersperse some smaller projects along the way- I have at least one other Fall deadline for a smaller piece.
Third- Life. There is only one more day of school! This will mean I don’t have naptimes to work as I will be hanging out with my daughter. But, my daughter is a great little helper and will probably want to help me paint the studio so there will still be a fair bit of productivity in there. And of course I will still have my evenings with hook in hand. Last year we called it the “Summer of Big Fun.” This year we are projecting the “Summer of Many Adventures.” My daughter and I have a list of things we want to accomplish over the next two months and we are ready to go!
As for the Blog, I know that I have fallen horribly, terribly behind in my inspiration photos. If I don’t pick up my socks soon I will never make it to 40 photos!!! I am extremely hopeful, though, that now that the summer routine is going to fall into place I will be out and about more with camera in hand so I think those posts are going to pick up in pace very soon. 🙂
Ok summer- bring it on. I’m ready for you.
