Is it Disney time yet???

So Friday and I had my "re-do" of my doctor's appointment from earlier in the year - the one I had the panic attack at and they sent me away! No panic attacks this time. BP was still high but not as bad as last time. It's over and done with for a year! But I for the past couple of weeks I've totally been stuck, like everything in my ...

the word “sketch” holds no meaning

Like literally over the past few days I've typed the word "sketch" so many times to tag posts that it no longer looks like a legitimate word, it looks weird and wrong. SKETCH SKETCH SKETCH But I'm all done going back through the archives of my blog and adding in all the old stuff. Enjoy at your own risk and dear GOD I drew a lot in 1998. (And funny, going ...

A Gigantic Dump of Artwork

So I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I knew I had "a couple" of sketchbooks in the attic at my parents, that I'd seen them once when I had to go up there a few months ago. I wanted to go over and grab them and see what was in them, mostly driven by knowing that some of my older artwork was lost. When I dug into the ...

More Disney photos, and Edith sleeves

First up, Chase gave me the photos he took of my Tightrope Walker last weekend! Had to go get pics with my alligator buddies before we left the hotel for the party. I love these guys. And then over at Magic Kingdom... I also got these added to my Tightrope Walker portfolio page along with parasol construction info. Speaking of construction info, Amanda over at my FB asked about my ...

Disney, Again

So we finally got to go on our rescheduled October Disney trip! Thursday we left directly after work, drove to Atlanta to spend the night. Our usual overnight hotel in Columbus was booked solid, so we had them move us to one in Atlanta... and it was not great. (When I said "Oh then just move us to one in Atlanta," I expected the one in downtown near the Dcon ...

A whole lot of stuff

So I was planning on getting all this stuff done this weekend - clean up the house, repack for Disney, do a bunch of laundry... did I get any of it done? No, not a bit. Instead, I watched way too much "Say Yes to the Dress," went a con, did a photoshoot, went to the Elmwood Twilight Tour, and did this: So I'll start with Saturday. I got into ...

a redraw, a redo

Still going back through the archives, fixing old posts, making them public, categorizing them and adding headers... currently about half way thru 2002. I'm hoping maaaaaaybe I'll be done before I go out of town! I know I've talked a lot of website, old stuff, old art, etc lately, because that's what I've been filling my time with -- I'm not going to get back in my sewing room until after ...

Living in the Past

This has been my life for the past 3... maybe almost 4 weeks now. I have been living in the past. First it was the old blog posts. Then trying to find old, lost costume photos. That led to digging into the my old art files and trying to find every single thing I ever posted to my website EVER. I already said it once but it is truly time travel. I ...

3 Half-Assed Galadriels

So to pick up where I left off last week -- I obviously ended up being SO GLAD we rescheduled our trip since our party canceled and the parks shut down on Friday! We'd have only had 1 park day and 1.5 days of stuck at Pop Century!! It still sucks missing my cousins but it looks like they still had a fun trip anyway. I had already scheduled to take Friday ...
