sit and wait or do

detail from a visual journal entry:
sit and wait or do

I worked today in the studio for a bit. One of the best feelings in the world is being excited upon entering the studio and being excited when departing. I’m working on a series of encaustics that I am just really excited about. How many times can I use the word ‘excited’ in one paragraph?! In real life I am a very mellow and quiet person, but if I keep using the word ‘excited’ and using exclamation marks people are going to think that I am a giddy hyper person. Which I am not. At all. But I am excited about the series I am working on.

I am also excited about tomorrow! My husband gave me the best present ever for my birthday last week~ a 6 week culinary techniques series at a place called Culinary Communion in Beacon Hill. It meets every Sunday morning. Tomorrow is the first class. I can’t wait.

Then after class I’ll be going to the airport to pick up my mom. She’ll be visiting for a week. We haven’t seen her since August when we went to Maryland. I am so looking forward to spending time with her. I miss her so much at times. She is coming to see us, but also to celebrate Noah’s 1st birthday, which is on Friday! I can’t believe he’s turning one. My little monkey rascal.

So tomorrow is a very eventful day. The house is all cleaned and I’m beat. Must go rest up for my exciting day!

The photo transfer that I used for my journal entry above was made from a stock photo that I purchased. I wish I took that photo. Speaking of which, one of my new years’ resolutions is to really learn my camera. I always try to read the manuals to teach myself, but my eyes can’t seem to help but glaze over. I’m terrible with technical stuff like that.
