The Yellow Notebook: Installation Complete

02 February 2009

Installation Complete

I am done with all the furious painting, and the installation is up. I did not hang the wedding portrait, but I did finish one other small painting before time was up. Now... I have the stomach flu! (or salmonella, depending on who you ask their opinion). That means, once I can stop running to the bathroom to, well, you know, I have to start FINISHING THAT NOVEL!

Here is the info for the art show: it is at the Cup A Joe in Raleigh at Mission Valley, off Avent Ferry Road (right near Western Boulevard). It will be up all month, and 10% of the proceeds are going to Freedom Firm (see www.freedom.firm.in), or see the latest blog entry at the Human Trafficking Blog that I follow (and have been asked to start contributing to, incidentally). Here are a couple photos of the show, as well as a YouTube video taken by some random YouTube hobbyist that happened to be there upon installation. Keep in mind, I was very sick during the interview, and could barely keep my eyes open and my cookies down.

We'll blog more once everyone in the house stops losing their lunches.

I have to disagree about the Gypsy girls though. I think they look serious and intense, but not angry.

Couldn't see the new red one very well though. Are you going to post it?; Wed Feb 04, 09:02:00 AM EST

New Life as a Blogger

The inspiration for me picking up blogging again is actually a worthless couple hours spent watching the AMA's Ten Top Ten Movies... so maybe it wasn't all worthless. Which is sort of where all this is going. After a rough couple of years, I am beginning to believe again that things have a purpose and that I would like to find mine. I plan to blog with most of it hanging out: the budget struggles, my husband's BiPolar, my migraines and motherhood and glaring faults (as well as my obsession with food and the way I get all worked up about nothing).

I should be at this every day, treading water until we find our current. Where will it take us?

We're going to start by sending out thank yous to people we owe them to, putting a couple choice quotes up on the wall, and making a list of books to read over the next 100 years or so. From there...
