actually I have been writing and all only it is on paper. Every morning for the first 15 minutes of my day I write 4 pages of whatever. It is kind of like the morning pages of one of those how to be artistic books only my pages are kind of small. The book was suppose to be my eating journal but it is also my state of mind book. I think it is helping me work out whatever and to focus.
Last night after Hollace told me she has a boring life, I helped her with a timeline of her life for a class assignment. While I was trying to remember what she could put on it, I ran across my old blog and was reading up on 2005. I noticed I had the same work anxieties as I do. I think mine right now are under control probably only because the jobs I am working on don’t involve a creative director.
Anyway, I thought I would write here so in 5 years I had something to read about October 1st.
Tonight was the College of Lake County Recent Works art show. I not only had one photo accepted in the show, I got an
Honorable Mention award of $25. Hey, what the heck, I’ll take it.
Besides having a boring life, Hollace is been into anime, watching too much of it on the internet. It isn’t just the imagery that inspires her but the music. She now has me looking for violin lessons for her.
On the home front, we just made a decision on who is going to do our roof. Hopefully that can get started soon though I am not in a hurry to shell out $6,000.
Last weekend we went to RAW’s mom. I volunteered Hollace to work a shift with the donkeys at the Farm Fall Fest (where she goes to Farm Camp). She did ok. I purchased a Virgin Mobile Mifi so now I can get online anywhere so while we were waiting for Hollace’s shift to be done, I watched an episode of Dick Van Dyke on Netflix. With the Mifi, I purchased a month of unlimited bandwidth (as opposed to 10 days of 100 Mbs) so I wanted to see how much we would use in an extreme case. The conclusion, in 3 days we used 1.2 Gig. All in all, a successful test.
We then stopped over mom and dad’s and said hi to Paula who was visiting.
I am getting old (no duh) and can’t stay up too late anymore. I was ready to go to bed at 11 p.m., on a Friday no less. My normal without fail bed time on a work night is 11:30. I use to stay up until 2:00 a.m. in the old days.
I guess that is all I have to report today. I will try and get back here soon to compliment my daily paper blog
