Do You Ever?

Stay up too late reading? Cause I do. All the time. I can't wait to see how a book ends even if it means I have no sleep the next day. I read a great book last night...until very very late. I need to not do that no matter how good it is.

I spent my afternoon yesterday watching some HGTV (one of my favs!) and doing some painting. I really wanted to go to the gym, but I refrained. Instead I worked it out in paper. I am getting good at what I like. Maybe not good to anyone else, but I love it. I have a more impressionist/modern art feel to most of my paintings. Not so much people of things, but feelings and colors and shapes. I want to look at a piece of art and not think, wow, that looks like so and so (even though I totally admire people who can do that!) but I want to have people feel something. Just like with my writing. Which I cranked out this weekend too. I just felt the creativity this weekend apparently. Maybe I will post a teaser for my book and some pictures of art this week.

Oh and I finished my Christmas cards and my list of gifts for people this year. Yeah, I am aware it is August, but fall is nipping at my heals and I can hardly wait to decorate. I am making myself wait until the first of September, but I want to do stuff right now! And fall leads to winter which leads to...Christmas. It is soon. I am excited for fall.
