IT IS COMPLETE! Phew. My favorite painting/antler duo (by far is):

 

All together there are 9 paintings and 5 painted antlers. Overall I am satisfied with it, I am not 100% in love with a few, but as a whole I believe each piece contributes to the whole...GESTALT as my art prof would say!

tacos. tans. trails.

phew.
here is another day in my life.

open the coffee shop today; lately the morning sky has been red...sailors take warning (if there are any sailors in Iowa, ha)

devour two amazing tacos...it is Tuesday, tilapia one is quite delicious

chill on the 'beach' (aka lake shore), get my tan on with a friend

bike to the Tap for Tacopocalypse tacos...and booze; they were decent I was just spent after biking in this 90 some degree weather (14 ish miles today). I wish I had my camera on my ride, I can not fit it with my phone and wallet in my...um...shall I say storage space, but yeah, wish I had it, cause the trails are wonderful and I was less than 10 feet away from a deer!

Superfluous I know (that is me), but that was my day and I must say I quite enjoy this routine. In my down time from not working I have been trying to be more active
... side note, I have a fear of being getting too buff ...

like taking a long bike ride a couple times during the week, canoeing and might add running into the mix on the days I do not bike. I love it. It is my alone time; to vent, to think about my worries or not think about a care in the world...whatever it may be I feel less stressed at the moment and that is something.   

...i just need the pixie dust

It's a rainy day & I am just sitting here at the shop staring out the window            
 ...pondering.
I'm supposed to be studying for linear algebra final but my mind just does not want to retain anything.


Lately my life has been evolving so rapidly I do not know what to make of it.
A few doors have been slammed in my face but for each one of those a new one has opened, greeting me with opportunities that I could not even imagine.

I need to learn to be patient, it is so hard when I have such a blunt personality. I like to lay things out on the table per-say and get straight to the point. I get misjudged by this; that tends to happen too much but oh well, I am starting not to care about that anymore.


The best way to describe how I feel right now, and it is cheesy as hell but, I feel like I am blossoming. "I'm spreading my wings" haha. But it is so true. I am going with the flow and trying to not worry about things too much. I am breaking down a barrier that I have and letting my true self shine through. Maybe it is all the positive thinking I have been doing lately. I have been trying to just roll with the punches and not let one little mishap bring my whole mood/day(week) down & I feel that I am the happiest I have been in a long while. Granted I have my days but overall, I love where my life is going - I do not know exactly where but I like it & each day holds something unexpected.
