I wasn't gonna come write today, but I had a ...grrr....moment.
Namely from stupid people...
If you're going to bother loving anyone, give 100% fully wholeheartedly, entirely. ALL. Give all of you for that love. Risk everything for it...everything. Because if it deserves anything at all, it deserves you.
For the idiots out there that are afraid of letting people in, or caring too much, or living in any type of fear driven mind set.....you are a disgrace to life and to love. If you can't give yourself, then you shouldn't have love.
I guess that goes the same for the boss man. Holding back from life, and holding back from Him. Holding inside that which was meant to be shared....Building walls up around what light you had....only to snuff it out and slowly die...
Light was meant to be given, to share, to risk losing....
Die to it and give all...or your walls will fall down upon your stone cold hearts and bury your dead soul.
Working working working is the theme of the week and reading too :)
Finished a big order and another little one that is almost done, then to tackle some easy ones tomorrow. And get my hair chopped on Wednesday!!! Whoo hoo!!!
Then besides all these work orders I am on the hunt for some moolah! Where is all the wonderful incredible people in my life?? ...oh wait...they live with me....but we ain't got no money, lol. Looks like I need to expand my circle of awesomeness......
Need to go paint some lightning and then off to bed.
Love you all bunches even if you don't think so :P

Hello...goodbye
Well, that didn't work out....I came on the computer to get a picture for work...and after 45 minutes still haven't gotten to it...the computer is BAD!!!!
Ever close your eyes, Ever stop and listen, Ever feel alive, And you've nothing missing, You don't need a reason, Let the day go on and on. Let the rain fall down, Everywhere around you, Give into it now, Let the day surround you, You don't need a reason, Let the rain go on and on.
So 5:30am comes early and I've got a photoshoot to do! So I can't stay long to blab about nothing. Then tomorrow evening we are going to go see the blue painted people, lol. And even though I have tons of work to do, I'll have to wait until tomorrow night when I get home, but I know most of it will actually get worked on Friday...after my other photoshoot...and after meeting someone who's buying something from me..and after school, and after probably dinner too...ugh....
Do you realize that it is kinda hard to sell stuff when you really want to sell stuff....but really easy when you kinda don't need to....hrmmm...
No cool happenings of late....no words of wisdom...except the good news....which is that the boss man is awfully tolerant of me and I really appreciate it!
Waiting waiting...and going insane, lol.....yes, I know...just let it take care of itself....
That would be so much easier if I wasn't super excited about it, lol.
Have to go! Really need to finish what I came to do in the first place, then go to bed! Busy day tomorrow :)
Starships were meant to fly....

Alwaysmore....forevermore....raining down.
Tapping, as if someone was gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
First fruits. The first delicious harvesting of the rewards from your labors. The first savoring taste of sweet morsels made from the long lasting efforts that foretold of many days...many days. Our treasures...stored upon the heavens and overflowing...down down upon our faces...smiling faces.
It takes approximately 3 hours to put on 10 appliques on the front part of two Alice in Wonderland dresses...this of course does not include the ruffles I did yesterday, nor the detailed handpainting of the faces on those said characters....and I have yet to add on the bottom ruffle and the top bodice part along with any ric rac trim and bows I'm pretty sure go on it....ugh.
Then I have 2 Ariel tops to finish...they are partly made...but not all the way..and then the appliques that go on them too....
Then I can consider that order finished....yay.
No other news...besides that nighttime picture taking doesn't work the way I want it to. :( and I am not liking having to alter my plans for the third time.... :(
But I guess eventually it will get done, because it has to...because I can't chop this hair off until this one photoshoot is finished! So I'll try again tomorrow....too damn tired tonight.
Not that that is an excuse...as its not, but having to alter plans means I have to tweak other details...and I need to pre-plan....kwim.
I would say that I am sad that I don't have any photoshoots scheduled for this week except for my own....but ...and a big but....is that I'm not really sad at all, LOL.
Mainly because of that first paragraph and those miraculous downpours of awesomeness...yeah...sweet raindrops.
We seem to be playing the waiting game the last few days and it is a rather wacky waiting. Reminds me of the last time we had to wait for people to do their job...and wait and wait...I hope this waiting will be swift on its feet and speedily set on course.
Interesting things there are on the horizon. That is all assuming that tomorrow will hold another wondrous treasure :)
Thursday...we get to go see the blue man people, lol. Yay! Something fun!
But really no other plans as of yet until the end of August...oh gosh that is far far away!!! :( :( :(
And it would be really really great if $600 would fall in my lap....like tomorrow.
Not much else a happening around here...school, cleaning, sewing....
I saw a sign today it read something along the lines of "You'll need to sow if you expect to harvest." something to that effect....but I of course thought more along the lines of "You'll have to sew if you expect to harvest" lol.... I'm totally assuming this weirded out sign had something to do with that first paragraph as well....
And I suppose me working at least 4 hours on those dang dresses is accountable for trying...idk.
Crud..its 1am.... I need sleep so I can attempt to really blaze out the to-do list tomorrow....burning hell fire, I want these stupid little things DONE! And I'm going to take the sign's advice and sow ...and sew...and be able to harvest those priceless things that make me smile.
Did I tell you I won 3 1st place ribbons, 1 2nd place and 1 3rd place in the county fair photography contest....I did :)
One was hubby and the girl...one with one of my clients...one was that hickory horned devil caterpillar (dang thing was like 8" long!), another was a rose from my garden....when it was happier...and the other was a trolley in Memphis when I visited there.
I's did good.
Did I also tell you, that the boss man is the most awesomest person ever. And He is ridiculously insanely wonderful. Come join us in our funny awkward outlooks. :) There's always room for one more :)

stickers...are confuzaling!
Me and the sewing machine have a speed date starting in about 11 minutes.
That villainess set will be finished before I go to bed....well, at least the sewing part of it anyway! Argh! I could so find something more worthwhile to do besides sew, but I have to get it done and there is just not enough 'want to' pulsing through my blood...ugh.
Anyway.... I've got a secret, lol.....and I can't share :P
But eventually I will get to, its just I'm not sure when I'll get to....maybe in a week....maybe in a month....but not too long I guess. Kinda exciting and somewhat frantic 'omg'ing what the heck sort of thing, lol.
But, the boss man said so...and well....He's been signing stuff kinda like that postcard and its kinda neato, lol. Kinda neato and kinda freaky scary too. But always exciting.
The last signature he left was this little sticker (mind you the ONLY thing out of place) placed in a obviously radical location to where I almost could have missed it but could never have missed it sort of thing....it had a picture of the earth on it....at the top it said 'God's World' and at the bottom it read '...even for the unborn' and this sticker was only about 1" by 1" so it was just so odd. I'm still trying to figure out if that sticker meant that abortion was wrong or whether 'non born again people' are still part of God's world?? I suppose both is true though.
I'm telling you, the boss man likes to freak me out and He's doing an excellent job...wow. Just wow.
In other news....the world of fake people are getting on my nerves. Do they think people can't see through their facade? Looks like there are more fake people that are dead inside than I realized....and its a sad sad thought.
Tomorrow I get to stay home for once and really try and remain focused to get the other stuff on my order list completed....if only I can stay focused....yeah....oh look, a something shiny!
Off to get work started on so it can get finished....ugh....or in an effort to pretend that being positive actually does help in any way.... yay! let's get to work! Whoo hoo! I can so do this :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :D
.....damn that sounds so freaking lame....lol

You will be assimilated.
How does one R.S.V.P.?
So last night I had a weird dream...well, more disturbing then weird.
It was storming outside in the dream...and dark clouds were moving over head towards the east. Lots of lightning and thunder. I remember looking out my window (facing west) and saw the edge of the storm to where just after was the brightest most beautiful sun shining through crystal blue skies. (and I think there was a smaller star/planet thing near the sun that could be seen)
But just then Another lightning bolt struck from the edge of the storm cloud , but it didn't go out....it was like a constant stream of electricity from one cloud to another and you could hear the 'zitzy' sound it was making...it was turning bluish. The the clouds started swirling and began moving back towards the west/NW and covered the sun/blue skies up rather quickly. And the part where the lightning was still 'on' moved more east/NE. I told hubby and we ran outside on the porch to see what the heck was happening with the blue long lasting lightning thing, but once outside on the porch we saw that it was far off now to the NE and it looked just like a blue star instead of blue lightning.
Then we started to go back inside, but a beam of light (like a searchlight) came from the sky above and I turned around to see what was flying overhead.
It was a cube...kinda like the Borg cube thing from Star Trek! But the front of it shone out like a flashlight. Once I saw it it slowed and pointed downward with the searchlight pointing at our yard and started coming downward. (The lighted part of it looked like those flashlights made up of 6 or so LED bulbs)
We ran inside and locked the door, but I was just thinking to myself in the dream, that I didn't think bullets would work, lol. It was messed up and a bit disturbing! I woke up just then too, which I am thankful for, I HATE alien dreams!!! And I don't want to be messing with no dang Borg alien things either, lol!
I'm not sure if the blue lightning/star thing had any connection with something about blue smoke/fire/etc like in that other dream....the blue 'stuff' that was to be a forewarning to the nuclear thing....Ugh!
I need to call the realtor lady back, and paint Lion King stuff, and sew up some Alice in Wonderland dresses....argh! And laundry and dinner, and who knows what else I have successfully forgotten about.
Hmmmm.....I'm tired as shit. Want to go take a nap, but then all that stuff I need to do will again be put off and that won't work out very well.
Photoshoot this afternoon probably will be rescheduled as it is still raining....which is good, I'm tired anyway. Watched a long ass youtube video about Obama being the antichrist too which was rather ummm...how do you say it.....ok...I guess...too long.
And the house needs cleaned too...argh..
I guess most important things first...and the embedded saying of 'How can you finish it, if you never start.' lingering in my head...so I will go eat lunch and bake brownies (cause yes, they taste better later in the day than just after you make them!) and do laundry while I'm in there and sweep and whatever else needs done within sight distance.
Then call the lady back and then manage to bring myself into the sewing room to do something!!!
Then a nap...then dinner, then read my book for editing purposes, and maybe I'll exercise sometime during today too. Got to go..

Thundering dust gardens
You're in the arms of the angel...may you find...some comfort here.
I can't help but notice little things. Little things that catch my eye at the perfect time, and all in consecutive order like placed before my eyes like reading the pages of a book. I wonder why, always why. Wonder what they are pointing to and wondering where they lead...how does this book end?
911 hit on the truck mile counter yesterday, along with red flags pointing to an end time battle. Today I feel my soul is wailing on the inside...and today pigs fly...like the old phrase 'so-and-so will happen...when pigs fly' and I wonder if this too points to something impossible that will manifest before our eyes.
But we all know how this book ends already, and it only ends well for some of us. I would like to think for all of us, all of us, even though I know not all of us are worthy. Hopeful that even at the last minute second, something on the insides of those of us who have ever drowned in the darkness could be lifted out to safety...even at the last moment, there's still hope. But I also think we have to want to be rescued....and unfortunately I don't think many people want to be. And I feel His pain of this truth.
Today it rained...yes here at our house, but has already stopped. Blessed rain set afoot on the parched dust-ridden ground where the clovers have shriveled to crunchy brown death. Too late to regrow now, much too late. Garden flowers somewhat still lingering on despite the love from heaven...but 10% of surviving flowers are not such a great thing when 90% of the green growing things suffered death. Maybe it's the same way with us too. Can only reap what survives, can only reap what is watered, but the rest...perhaps they must wait until the next harvest....as this one is almost over.
Be a flower. Drought tolerant and roots grown deep, shady green leaves to protect your roots, blossoms of color, joy upon the graveyard. Always stretching upward towards the sun, and thankful of each and every rain....and every cloudless day...and every night under the stars.
Flowers gardens are nice and all...but sometimes its the flower that grows out amidst the field that is prettiest of all. Standing proud to give Him a face upon the earth.
So much more to write today, but I think I'm going to wait.
Busy week so far and busy for the rest of it...and now is not the time to be idle.
Shall I write of the wind, of mountains and of dreams. Upon His presence that nears so close. Thunder rolls, breathing nears. It is not the breath, it is not the light, but something there are no words for. Listen and see. So close now and there are no words, nothing standing in the way. He comes....
Take me, to the magic of the moment, on a glory night...where the children of tomorrow share their dreams, with you and me...

Do you ever ask yourself why the heck you bother reading this crap?
Wow, it has been a whole entire week since I bothered to come on here and write a bunch of nothing, haha.
Nothing new, although it looks like I've had 2 photoshoot cancelations and 2 reschedules...all in the last 4 days...wow, I must be popular!
But tomorrow I get to do 1, so I can keep my mojo going....I have my outfits for my own photoshoot ready too!! Which we can hopefully do this next weekend....and also if I can get everyone up and headed out by 6:00am... :)
After that one I can cut this craptastic hair of mine! And then get everything else ready for the next photoshoot, lol!
I also planned out my to-do list a more scheduled-like....and if it all goes well, I can get it all done within 2 weeks...but I don't hold out much hope for that, as I have 3 things I have on today's list that I still haven't gotten to.....hmmm....but today's not over yet, I guess.
And school books should get here tomorrow!!! Can't wait! Why am I the only nut who's excited about getting new school books in the mail? Kids don't think its very awesome at all, but I do :)
Yay for teaching grades 6th and 4th! Yikes! But they are glad that the History class will basically be watching a cartoon based on the American Revolution... :)
Currently I have 18 unfinished orders.....that means many of them are partly finished, but not all...or not even started on, lol. Given my 2 week time frame, I'm thinking I can actually get those done in a timely fashion, but only if it rains....cause I will be laying out in the sun, and working on my book, and doing photoshoots in the midst of this beautiful chaos.
And I think the realtor lady supposed to call back next week sometime....(yes, the one on the card that God signed!)
We will see what becomes of this nonsense! And hubby has also lost his mind thinking it would be okay to buy a $170K house in Valleybrook....but I guess I will have to do what he says and all....hahaha
He also said I can foster 'someone I really don't know's dog...
Well....if you find me sleeping, don't wake me the heck up, I like this tumbling down the rabbit hole kinda life!!Little red pill anyone?
Anyway....I guess you would have to watch the Matrix to understand that comment, lol.
Animals are fine and strange as usual, no alien weirdness or zombie oddness either. No strange dreams...well, not awesome strange ones anyway. No words to the wise or voices in my head to tell you about either...*sigh...
No stories to tell or complaints either....other than this dickwad at the 153 wal-mart (Dean) was acting like a jackass and wouldn't take their piece of crap bicycle back (with receipt, within 90 days)...but they worked on it, only for it to break again in the parking lot....instead of arguing that we wanted our money back, we took it to the wal-mart in Soddy and they refunded our money without being dickheads and without an issue at all....see...sometimes hick towns are better...then stupid snobs.
What else...hmmm...other than this impending feeling that I need to get this list for today slaughtered so I can prove it is possible to actually get things done in a timely manner....nothing at all.
oh...brownies....I want some brownies. I gotta go! :)

Given my 2 week time frame, I'm thinking I can actually get those done in a timely fashion, but only if it rains....cause I will be laying out in the sun, and working on my book, and doing photoshoots in the midst of this beautiful chaos.
And I think the realtor lady supposed to call back next week sometime....(yes, the one on the card that God signed!)
We will see what becomes of this nonsense! And hubby has also lost his mind thinking it would be okay to buy a $170K house in Valleybrook....but I guess I will have to do what he says and all....hahaha
He also said I can foster 'someone I really don't know's dog...
Well....if you find me sleeping, don't wake me the heck up, I like this tumbling down the rabbit hole kinda life!!Little red pill anyone?
Anyway....I guess you would have to watch the Matrix to understand that comment, lol.
Animals are fine and strange as usual, no alien weirdness or zombie oddness either. No strange dreams...well, not awesome strange ones anyway. No words to the wise or voices in my head to tell you about either...*sigh...
No stories to tell or complaints either....other than this dickwad at the 153 wal-mart (Dean) was acting like a jackass and wouldn't take their piece of crap bicycle back (with receipt, within 90 days)...but they worked on it, only for it to break again in the parking lot....instead of arguing that we wanted our money back, we took it to the wal-mart in Soddy and they refunded our money without being dickheads and without an issue at all....see...sometimes hick towns are better...then stupid snobs.
What else...hmmm...other than this impending feeling that I need to get this list for today slaughtered so I can prove it is possible to actually get things done in a timely manner....nothing at all.
oh...brownies....I want some brownies. I gotta go! :)

July is a time for freaking out, lol
Hello. My name is Moe. I like to paint little miracles in my shop down on Twenty-Fourth Street. I sell thousands each day, however I only get paid for five each week. I love my job, but find it heartbreaking that only a handful of people acknowledge the hard work I have put into each and every one of my creations. They are all happy when they receive one, but unfortunately they forget rather quickly the greatness that they have seen. Poor pitiful souls who forget that they too were once beautiful paintings.
Well...another one of my quails escaped today. I figure the dog will bring it back to me tomorrow...probably dead. We successfully got all the guineas and the last 6 keets in the big pen today too. Hopefully, momma will let them eat/drink and we won't lose anymore. Not sure where the other 4 went? But I assume if they died the dog would have brought them home...so I figure they got eaten.
Filled up the pool thing we bought yesterday...but it is cold, so only the kids were brave enough to venture into the water...I however will wait a day or so until it gets warm enough to my liking.
2 photoshoots are on the agenda for tomorrow....along with piano class and jr. derby....and hell or high water, I must finish that Lion King outfit...ugh! I will try to talk myself into at least finished Simba here in a little bit.
Also, as we all should know, it is now July.
What's the big deal about July, you ask? Well....let's see....I've had my camera for 1 month so far...and I have 5 months before I have to be making money...god thing is, I am already charging..and I'm waiting on a schedule set-up for my first paid client! Whoo hoo!
Mind you, I still have free ones I have to do, which is great, btw, and I still have my own I have to do, but for July I have my $30 for 30 minute deal. Will be nice when I can say $100 for 30 minutes, or $500 for special occasion stuff....I'll get there. :)
I still have 4 years and 11 months to put the other photograhers out of business....or at least make them cringe when they realize their own peoples have paid me instead...ha.
Yes, I'm a bit devious sometimes...but I like to call that friendly competition. :D
Speaking of high water...before I forget...I had a short discussion with the boss man (like yay, since He's been all quiet like forever!) He was showing me something with water pouring...like a waterfall or something...kinda like seeing water, but He was making these hand gestures of it pouring over like a waterfall or something...idk.
No clue if that has to do with the hoover dam breaking, but that is the first thing I thought of afterward.
Anyway....July also means the 4th of July...which is kinda boring and lala..stupid too. Not the meaning, but the stupid traditions they do over and over each year, like it is something exciting...like people don't get out much, lol....well, I guess they don't, but I do and I think it's stupid. Youtube people think something will happen, but I don't. Also, there's the olympics this month too, right? No clue when they start really. But the whole thing about Zion in their logo among other oddities...um...weird, but dumb too.
And sometimes this month the sun goes in between the horns of Taurus...like all those statues (egyptian/arab/whoever) But I can't tell you exactly when, as my freaking Stellarium program is no longer working and the download for it online is infected..so I don't have a version I can use to look! It's really devastating when you end up using and loving a silly computer program and it stops working, lol.
Anyway...what else about July.... July is my photography month...which I'm totally working on, as this week I have a photoshoot every day except Wednesday. Go me!
July is also my writing month...as I am going to finish book 2 that I have practically already wrote, I just need to finish the end and epilogue!! Then just a good edit and I'm done! Ugh! It is totally getting done this month or else!
July also means the start of the new school year for the kiddos....which we will start once I order the books I need, lol. Maybe by the 23rd...but not on the 23rd, how about the 24th instead. And we get to go see the Blue Man Group this month too, lol!! Yay, something different for once.
And, if by chance that postcard from God actually works out incredibly well....then there's a whole amazing insane journey ahead of us. *Excited and Terrified! YAY!
So July, is looking to be pretty cool.
But I do have to wait until the end of August to go to the beach... :( please please please remind me to book my next years beach vacation sometime in March or April, that way I won't have to wait so long to go...and if they happen to offer that 35% off deal again (or more)...I might just book 2...cause I'm awesome like that..and it was really cheap
And someone needs to talk me out of saving up $988.40...because that is the amount I need as a deposit for a 7 day Caribbean Disney cruise....I do not need to go on a cruise, right? We do not need to spend money frivolously, right...just like we don't need a $600 bicycle or a $1600 camera, right? Or a fancy house in Valleybrook, or a vehicle that is bigger and better on gas than what we have now, right? And I certainly don't need to pay to get my teeth straitened or put in some fancy new boobs, lol, right? Or wait, a boat for the hubby, or a little fabric shop on the corner of some really busy street, right? Or we don't need that trip to Australia in five years either then, right?....yeah...you see where my sarcastic humor is going...
I need $988.40.
Anyway....I see how poor people never go out and do anything...and I don't want to be like them...I don't want a big fancy tv, or a new game system, or a fancy bedroom set...I want to give adventure and experiance to the kiddos...cause they are cool like that.
And I have you know, the boy put together his new star wars lego set in less than 4 hours, lol. Which he is happily playing with now :)
I have got to go! It is July and there is no time left!
G'day mates! set sail on the high seas of cheap buckets and tiny waisted trenchcoats of dangling green pineapples and sauted onion-dipped frogs. *Munch away and enjoy life...not the stuff you sit on. ;)
