Saturday

So I am trying to stick by my new schedule as much as possible even though I won’t be in the studio working until February. There will be some schedule tweaking and it will definitely take some time getting used to. So this morning – even at 25 degrees, I was up walking dogs for 2 hours. It was so cold. I walked again after helping at the studio for a bit and I was so tired after another 2 hours of walking, I am having a bit of a hard time being motivated to work tonight. It will get better. I am getting some spirulina and making sure I get my water in for the day – today, I forgot it. 🙁

Yoga is tomorrow. Hopefully I will find the energy.

Only schedule dedication and extreme puppy love would make me walk for 2 hours in 25 degree weather. Brrrr...

Here are some studio shots…

This is my bench I picked out. In the corner 😉

The hopeful opening of the studio is Feb. 2. Still lots of cleaning and arranging to do, but it is awesome and they have done an amazing job of setting everything up. Did I mention, they are providing every metal tool, kiln, torch, hammer, anvil, etc…  you could possibly imagine.

Yah, that sold me along with the amazing energy of the place and of course the river across the street.

You know how I feel about the river… the love of my life.

Baloo

This is Baloo.  He is the cutest dog who loves to howl and sing.

Pixiefish- caught eating prey

This is Jeri of Copper Fish Metal and one of the gals I rent from. She is the tiniest thing I have ever seen in my life, so mostly I refer to her as pixiefish. She is so sassy and has a big personality. I adore her so already.

I have been thinking about this weeks treats for everyone. Now I have two sets of friends to make things for and I love it! I was thinking cinnamon rolls – something baked. I haven’t done that yet, mostly because I haven’t used my very tiny airstream oven yet, but I think it is time and cinnamon rolls are soo good and yummy smelling or I might get lazy and just make a coffee cake – any suggestions? The rolls aren’t vegan 🙁 but I think I can make some substitutions and make a batch for Friday night group and sat group. whew!

Well, I have some mobiles to make and not too many deep interesting things to say tonight.

Hope your weekend is lovely.

I’m in! I’m In!!! yip!

I know I should have a more sophisticated title, but HOLY SH*T! I got studio space and it is perfect. The building, the security, the windows, the people, even the river right across the street and even not to far from my local hang spot – perfect for when I get off at midnight and need a little social time – wait until you see my schedule and you will understand. Excuse the iphone photos – I will definitely be taking more, but for now it is still getting finished. I am going in tomorrow to meet more people, clean and move things. eep! and then studio time begins February.
But let me get back to the beginning. This was the light at 7:30 this morning. It poured out like golden honey on my soul. I so needed this today and it made my day absolutely sparkle, even the dogs got walked!

across the street from the studio - swoon.

I am literally scraping some pieces of feathers together to make wings on my back, adding a little magic and faith and taking that leap. I can’t not think that I won’t succeed. I have too many ideas and too much to share in the world and I can only hope that with all the love I am sending out, it will support me financially.

So I did my schedule yesterday and it sounds very busy, but I have still made time for pups, meditation and yoga 😉

Let me share hours in a week: 30 hours dog walks, 35 hours metal studio, 25 hours sew/ herbs/ study, 20 hours day job.

I might be taking lots of spirulina for energy but I have some pretty prominent goals and I talked to the dogs that it might be tricky for a while, but they are getting two walks a day. That isn’t so bad, right?!

I collected sticks today for more mobiles. I have had several inquiries about them which is good! I really liked making them – so much beautiful medicine in one little art piece – stones, copper, wood, earth and love.

I dropped off my treats to my friends and got a hug that absolutely made my night. Sometimes I wonder how it is that we are attracted to certain people and I don’t necessarily mean romantically – but anyone. Of course, I do like him, so I will take a hug when I can get it 😉 But I do wonder is it one’s spirit, past life, aura, energy, looks etc…? Something to think about, I guess -for another post, perhaps. Anyways, I think my coffee is kicking in because my mind is like speeding rainbows. Oh to be a creature of the night.

-new studio's spirit guide

This chicken is the studio’s spirit guide. 😉

ps. it is a studio share with many other metal artists, so I am super excited to learn, grow, network and be around such amazing energy. In the future I would like my own place, but this is where I am supposed to be now and I can’t wait! My new friends are AWESOME!
