Be Entry
Can’t believe that I am finally getting back into a groove with this. The background is acrylic paint, then I just used sharpies and some rubber stamps.

Week Ten - Wait
I stuck with the “wait and see” part of this prompt. On this page I doodled like I normally would if I were waiting.

Week Nine - Irk-able
Some paint, some stamps, playing cards, and a sharpie. Thought I’d try out this journaling technique I’ve been seeing around. I like how it looks.

Week 10
This one came very easily tonight, it was already on my mind. In case you can’t read the actual journal part, here it is. Not hte best looking but it was really about the words for this one.
If I did the right thing
If I want him back
If he’ll take me back
If we’re meant to be
Is he the one?
Can we make it work if we do get back together?
What to do with my life?
Will this make me happy?
Can I be truly happy?
Can I let go?
Can I leave home?
Can compromise really be done?
Can I change?
Can I forgive myself?

Another Wings spread
Here’s is my spread for wings. It says “From the Garden of Sameness” and “There is a dissenter in the garden of sameness” Just my take on conformity. Thanks for looking!

Second Page of my Piss and Moan What Bugs You spread
This is my second page of just free form ranting. The prompt came at a good time because I was feeling pretty crabby and just down on lots of things for no particular reason. I’m not usually like that so maybe it was a planetary thing:) This is all my ranting:
It bugs me that my kids make messes all day long and I have to clean them up. I wish it wasn’t so hard raising kids. I wish i wasn’t so hard on myself. I wish I didn’t expect more from people. I wish more people would be ‘real’. I don’t like fake people who only care about money and status. It bugs me that I’m so tired today. I don’t even feel like doing art. I wish my son didn’t get silly putty in his hair that had to be cut out. The weekends are too short and the weekdays aren’t fun enough. I hate being in a bad mood since it doesn’t happen that often. I hate when the phone rings at the worse times. It’s bugs me when people don’t write back. Things I don’t like: shallow people, cutesy ‘polite’ art sucks, clowns suck, prissy fake people, crappy cutsy stamps suck, crying babies, particularly my own!
Okay wow, I was really in a funk. Thanks for looking!

First page of my piss and moan what bugs you spread
Catching up on posting. Finally got a new scanner. Love the work that has been posted lately! This features a chain letter that I received from my son’s best friend. It didn’t threaten you with doom and gloom if you didn’t send it on, it just guilted you by saying how you’d be ‘letting down the children’ It’s one of these send a book get a bunch back, they tell two friends who tell two friends blah blah blah…. Thanks for looking !

my week 8 page - wings
I’ve fallen a bit behind. Hope to use this weekend to do some catching up. This is my page for the “wings” theme. I used some photos of my daughters and then added some angel wings to them!

it’s been 21 days since my last AJ entry. when I read shimelle’s email prompt on “break” I hit a dry spell… so i decided it’s time for a break. it’s been hard to jump back in and although I’m not completely happy about this page, here it is. better this than wait in limbo for who knows how long…
I took a pic of my feet standing on the shore of Huntington Beach, California just as the tide rushed in. I am standing at the edge of the continent – or rather at the edge of my life – stealing a moment for myself.
