pillow pet

sometimes you are in charge of your day .... you embrace life .... you tick everything off your to do list ... you feel joyful ... you feel accomplished ...

and sometimes... not so much.

sometimes you don't feel in charge of anything and life happens to you ... like when you're waiting for the air condition repairman on the day it is supposed to be 104 degrees .... wow! ....

my sweet dog is not choosing to be int eh pillow house ... but sometimes you have to let your human sister have her way ..... sometimes you have to go with the flow .... and get through what you're going through .... and hope the roof doesn't cave in!

may your dreams stay big ....

happy summer ... i have been missing in action for a while now ... i've been updating my reading list, but that's about it as far as this blog is concerned .... but now i'll catch up ... ready ... begin ....
this is a small piece ... about six inches square ... and as i type that, i don't know if it is on canvas or on a small board ... hmmmm .... i don't generally have to do research to post on the blog .... 

you can see that background is an old glazed map .... i used a new favorite stencil on it for some texture ... and then used a rascal flats song lyric that  i'm partial to .... i don't tend to be a worrier, but i think that makes it even worse when i am worried about something ... i don't know what to do with the turmoil in my head cause i'm not used to it! ...... 

how's your summer going? dreaming big? worrying small?
