What a quantum shift the move to my sweet home has given me. I know it has been a long and tumultuous journey to my personal sense of homeyness. But it is so, I now live in a vintage (circa 1909, scary basement, some original moldings, hig ceilings)white frame house in Libertyville, Il.
I have four rooms plus a bath, high ceilings, hardwood floors (in need of redoing, of course), windows (some that open, some that don't)and real trees (a big maple and I think a Tulip Magnolia) and outdoor space (driveway and garage 1 space thank you). I live almost in downtown about a half block from Milwaukee Ave; it is affordable and my dining room has turned into part studio part dining
I look forward to having the laughter of my friends over and for the ability to create the next series of work that is ever beckoning, just at the edge of the real world of work. I opened the store today (445 am up looking for tea, at the job at 530 am not my best time I assure you) Did in town stuff yesterday on my day off, picnic in the park, banking on foot, meeting within walking distance, so much within my footfall.
I am thankful, and willing to live in gratitude (paying it forward).
Enough, need to sleep, tomorrow has elements of intrigue, service and fun. Blessed Be!
