it's been a while since i have hung out here - and there a few good reasons and some not so good reasons. you know how it goes.

well first i have had a busy couple of weeks and months. all good.

i have done so much and managed to get even more done around the house. in the last attempts i shuffling things around my 'studio' part of the lounge. yip - there i said it.

i have no fancy studio. well technically i have - it's built but have no roof and no doors.

in the meantime i am painting the entire house to calm things down for myself. 

light. cream. fresh. french.

i am painting a lot of furniture. doing a shop renovation for a client and friend.

painting more furniture. making wish lists. cleaning. organizing. purging. creating.

i have also realised a few things.
that there are still a few good people on earth. generous people. loving people. real friends.
i have come to accept my creative life and what it is. good and bad.
i am comfortable with my creativity and won't change it for anything. and shouldn't.
that the little things in life really are the big things.
that i need to write down all the little things my better half says - they crack me up.
they make me smile and he makes me happy. extremely happy.
to love abundantly while we have it. to seize the day. to learn from each other.
and above all not to judge because until you have been in my shoes - you just don't know.
