    If I do what I think I’d like to do, I’ll let you know after I do it…! (Art, markets, and more.)

    Spring is here, which means I’m extra anxieted (anxious + excited!!)  It’s all good, though.  We’ll get everything done, right?  And if we don’t…that’s okay.


    Today I’m rambling about my somewhat newfound appreciation for working with “traditional”/physical art media.  And, we’re starting a farmers market!!! Yay!

    Art (& craft) at the Amphitheater, and thinking about the way I think about things…

    Oh my, it's been a little while again...!  Today I'm talking about the craft show I was organizing and how that went, chat a bit about how Me-Made-May went, give an update on the garden, and discuss how I want to go from here...

    The book I started reading -
    How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy by Jenny Odell - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/42771901-how-to-do-nothing
