This last weekend was such a blast, I'm having trouble being normal again. I really enjoyed being free of responsibility. I enjoyed the freedom of speech, the giggling, the change in environment and stupid things like driving alone for a long stretch of time.
I went away with my high school friends and rented a house on Tomales Bay, which is near Point Reyes, CA. If you are a mother- please get away like this. It' invaluable for your sanity. And I just love my friends- there's not too much time in real day-to-day life to just laugh until you hurt. It's as good as therapy. (not that I've ever had any therapy, actually...)
Its also important to know people- REALLY know people. I am lucky to have two groups of girls in my life with whom such honesty exists- these girls from high school, and my friends up where I live. I'm blessed.
Today for my painting class, our homework was to prime two sheets of 18 by 24 Bristol board with 2 coats of Gesso and bring to class. I'm excited to see what we'll be painting on them- and whether or not I did it right!
And in other news, I'm re-inspired to write after this weekend. One of my friends is actually reading this blog and gave me a bit of feedback on my Novel excerpt! I had no idea you were reading, Jo!!! It re-ignited my sort of discouraged thoughts about this book...I think when I get home today, I'll do a bit of typing...
