I feel as if my soul has been sucked out of me. I guess the death of my Dad over the summer is really kicking in and I miss him dearly. I am unmotivated to do anything right now. I am involved with many projects right now the only issue is they don't bring in a profit. Unfortunatley I need to make mula so I have taken on a part time job in the mornings to get my mind off of the sadness and to make some extra $$.

I have a show at Yulecon at the end of the month, the weekend before Thanksgiving but Im not excited in the least. Im just tierd and want to crawl in a hole and fall into a deep sleep. But for now Im continuing to search for a more permanent job. Im sure once that happens I will have time to delv into the joys of what I love to do. Create. But for now I have Creators Block.

Errrrr........

So for now - I don't have anything new to post.

Need to update Etsy soon.

I haven't posted a journal in a long time, this is just me so don't read if you don't want to know. Im a bit emotional right now.

It's been a crazy year so far and I haven't felt very social of late. But I have alot of things I need to work on. Personal Goals per sae, working on art jewelry and getting my new website up, that by the end of the year would be nice. Looking for contract work or something in my field to have a little more stability, work on getting a new place for myself so my kiddos will feel comfortable visitng and staying and most importantly trying to be there for my boys even though Im about an hour away. That part really sucks.

It's hard to explain to anyone why things are going on so I prefer to keep them queit and Im just using this as a sounding board. It's hard to be creative right now. I miss my kids dearly. Life changes have kind of stumpt me for the time being. So Im taking a break from Shows and my next one is at the end of November at Yule con. In the mean time, Im working on the above and will continue to place jewelry on Etsy and work on inventory.

My favorite holiday is coming up, Halloween, but not sure how to celebrate it this year. I may just make Gothic Jewelry and leave it at that. I dunno. I may not even do that.

So yes - writers block, artist block, life block. It's hard to focus and I find myself forcing myself to get out of bed to work on things. I miss my kids and I miss my Dad who recently passed. Maybe one day it will all make since again and maybe my family and friends will understand, but now no one does. I feel so torn up inside but I have for a long time, now I just want to heal and move on. Now Im staring at the wall the ceiling - not wanting to do anything, becoming more anti social for others don't seem to understand.

I need to go out and find inspiration.

So this song is stuck in my head and it makes me giggle [link] The first time I heard this song was at THE CHURCH in Dallas at their BRASS BALL. Which was an absolute blast.

So what is new, I know I haven't posted in a while but then my mind is scattered and all over the place. Its funny, I just quit my job about a month ago and I am still stressed. Funny Ive been like this for a few years. Just tied up in knots. But that's just not interesting here. But I quit my job to do more freelance and to work on my jewerly.

So the exciting part is I am setting up shows and I am eager to see how they will do.

I have resigned from Corporate America to venture on my own. Now a freelancer in Graphic Design and Photography as well as my own Jewelry Creations. So far I have one Web account I am working on and 2 comission jewelry pieces. w00t! I am very excited!
In this new adventure of mine I plan on taking my time. Travel around and take pictures of what I like, good, bad or indifferent. I will start working on glass and metal once again. I do so love my metal!

And to top it all off - No more 3 hour commute everyday.

Other items in the process.. Blue-MadamX are working on Paperwork to make the Anime Documentary official and working on that web page as well as my own.
