I finally got around to going to one of those wine and paint places today. I dragged along Michelle and we were determined to have a great time.

Success!! :) What a blast this was! I was worried that my painting would look awful, but I think it turned out great. Michelle’s looked awesome too! The neatest thing about this class was that everyone was creating a similar painting, but each one looked different. They all had a bit of the person’s personality in it which really gave each piece a unique characteristic.

I love this! I can’t wait to do another one! :)

Today was awesome. My favorite poet, Anis Mojgani, hosted an Open Studio at Serenbe. He had been nominated to attend a month long artist residency at Serenbe and today he opened up his studio to folks to come check out what he’s been working on. It was a like a little sneak peak into his creative mind. Simply. Amazing. We talked with him for a little bit and purchased another copy of his new book. He was kind enough to sign it and take a picture with me. :)

What an amazing experience. He is so down to earth, yet magical and inspiring. He also mentioned that he was hoping to do a reading towards the end of February…which I will do whatever I can to make sure we attend!

Errand day.

On a fun note though, I’m excited to start making my own candles. I’ve been researching it a bit and today I’m going to check out a few places and see what I can acquire locally.

I’m stuck.

Stuck in an unmotivated rut.

Days have passed…and nothing has been accomplished…

It’s nice that there are no emergencies or major stressful events at the moment, but why am I wasting my days doing nothing? There are clearly things that I need to do, even things that I want to do, but instead I lie around wasting time doing…nothing.

And the worst part is, I know I’m doing this…and don’t change.

Forgot to take a picture today. So here’s a picture of part of the poetry section at Moe’s in Berkeley, CA. We didn’t have much time to browse…but it was a truly beautiful site and I hope to get back there one day.
