My life right now...
Fitness: I’m actually doing ok, I’ve slacked off since school started but have not gained weight and still occasionally jog or do some toning, I’m picking it back up this week though. My goal is not to loose weight so much as to look and feel good and healthy. I’ve lost about 30lbs and 2 sizes since I started paying attention to my health in September (luckily non of the weight has come off where I don’t want it to, the chest!)
Parenting: Aidan is getting so big and talking a lot. We are working on potty training. I think I am very lucky to have such an awesome son. Everyone who has met him agrees that he is such an angel, he makes friends easily at school and he is very well behaved. He’s also turning out to be a very bright boy, it amazes me on a daily basis how much he understands and what he knows.
Job: My art business has been up and down. I have become better at marketing and advertising and have had some luck in getting paintings sold without resorting to ebay (ebay sucks, thieves want to take everything I make). However, I found that it is just not practical to depend on my business yet. I will keep painting and building this on the side but for now I’m going to start working at The Great Outdoors with the intent of becoming a shift leader and then store manager, they are a great company to work for. You have to do a lot of wrong to get fired and raises and promotions are easy to come by if you want them and are willing to work for it. I find the history of how the business was created and how well it is run fascinating. Their systems are awesome and so practical. Plus they have the BEST SANDWICHES IN THE WORLD!!!! Of course I don’t intend on dedicating my life to it, I am still going to school and getting my degree.
Also I have decided to start painting nudes again, I’ll be putting them on a different site and a different my space page, I’ll probably end up changing my dating page into a profile for the nude and erotic art. I’ll keep you all posted.
School: I forgot how hard school was when you go full time, and doing it while raising a child and running a business is even harder. I love my classes and am doing well (CRAP! I just remembered I have to finish my paper for psych!) I’m going to have to take less classes next semester and find a balance between easier and harder classes so I don’t get behind and have to drop anymore in the future.
Spring cleaning: I hate to say it but my house has become incredibly unorganized since school started. It’s has some to do with lack of time and some to do with the fact that I had to move my entire studio and office to my room after my mom moved in. I’m finally getting around to organizing all the little things I just tossed in boxes in my closet, stuff I need for the business. Plus I am putting away the winter clothes and getting out the summer stuff for Aidan and me. On top of that I have a cat that is so old she is decomposing in my living room as I type, she smells, BAD! She is stinking up my carpet, I have compensated my grandma’s carpet shampooer so I can clean her favorite spots on a bi-weekly basis, also good for when Aidan decides to take off his dirty diaper and play in it
Love: I started dating again. I actually don’t like dating. Well, it’s not that, it is just so stress full, meeting someone new is stressful to me, I tend to be kind of awkward until I get to know someone. I’m going to keep trying though, just not as hard. I was crushing on a friend for a while, I was really falling for him. Until I started to realize I only saw him when he could be alone with me at my house to make out otherwise he seemed to make himself unavailable to me. Oh well, if I were at a point in my life where I could just goof off with someone it would have been fine, but it’s time for me to get serious and find someone to spend my life with, I really need to do so before Aidan is too old and gets too use to it being just me and him, I don’t want him to resent anyone new in my life. Also, I don’t want to be to old before I have more kids. Of course I’m not going to rush into anything. I pretty much know what I’m looking for in someone and have become more thoughtful of who I spend my time with. I have to be, I don’t want to get stuck with someone who is wrong for me and I don’t want things to fall apart down the line and cause too much instability for everyone. I went out with a guy a week or so ago that seemed nice, but turned out he had a girlfriend, don’t think he knows that I found that out though, she was on his my space page, wasn’t his top person, but he was her top and she had plenty of pics of him that specifically said he was her man. I should really do my research first before I waste my time with losers and cheaters. I am starting to like someone else though, he is actually someone I have known for a little while. I’m not going to go into detail, I don’t want to have to put my foot in my mouth later. My family has heard all about him though, so they should know who I’m talking about. Lets just say, all my closest friends know the type of guy I like and the more I get to know him the more I’m finding it hard not to think about him.
Well, That’s my life right now, I’m going to try to take the time to write more for you nosey people in the future.

Today is the day I’ve been waiting for!
In addition to the flyers I listed ads with craigslist in about 10 different cities and will do more today. Yes, that's right, I am such a talented artist that I can actually accept long distance commissions via internet, welcome to the information age!
And my best idea yet, well I actually had this idea a long time ago but I lived in El Paso at the time and it would not have worked as well there since people don't spend as much money on their pets out there. I have contacted all dog parks in the DFW area asking if I can set up a table where I will take pictures of and paint peoples dogs for them on the spot. i have already had some responses to that idea.
I really need to make this art thing work, other wise I may have to get (dare I say it) a JOB!
I don't know why I have had such a mental block about doing pet portraits again, I guess I was just being a typical artist who didn't want to paint what other people want. Well, as with any business the only way to survive is to give people what they want.
As a side note, I will also start painting babys and children. Keep checking back, I am working on some examples since i don't have any pictures of my old portraits I used to do.
