The life of a bibliophile….

Trapped
This is the stage I hate. The waiting for something so awesome that I feel trapped in stasis. I can’t move forward til I know for sure what direction I’m going. My knitting has been left aside, my painting sits, half finished, my thoughts get held up on the same thought, my feet stumble in daily routine.
I just would like to know, til I do I am stuck, still, trapped

Painting
So, I’ve been asked to do a themed mural at one of the sites I work at. If the person who asked me to do it gets full permission, I’ll be covering a Kindergarten cloakroom with princess-y castle & a boy’s fortress :p
Painting feels wonderful! I am actually liking acrylic now I think. Working on my second painting in this medium right niw :)
Packing
This weekend I finally packed art supplies in my backpack for at my boyfriend’s house!!
I packed all my acrylics, a canvas, paintbrushes, & the rough sketch I want to paint :)
I’m excited, but wholey unmotivated to do it quite yet. Was going to spend the day at my place instead of here, but my crazy mother ruined that…

Taking Care
Tom bought me an orchid & apparently they’re difficult to take care of. I asked my horticulturalist friend what to do to keep my little plant alive & she said:
-No direct sunlight but lots of sun.
-Don’t over water, just try to spritz it’s leaves daily (or every 2 days) & if the moss it’s in feels dry, water it a little.
-Keep it warm, but give it air....

The Library
In my sanctuary of printed words. Amongst the bound papers filled with ideas. At home in the quiet. I am here.

Book Love
Though I have a stack of books to read that is far too high, I’ve decided that I’ll make a list of the books I want (as most are out of print), & will only order them when I feel the desperate need for books! This way I’ll save some money & can focus on reading my current pile :). List to come. The only deviation I will allow upon this list are graphic novels (that come...
