6 months has passed me by...

Dearest Neglected Blog

I know I haven't been a good Blogger as of late. You know when life gets you completely under its thumb, without an inch to move? That has been me as of late. I seriously feel like one of those bop bags or that terrible Chumbabwumba song...yeah you know it....sing along, "I get knocked down, but I get up again, cuz your never gonna keep me down."

I am not really sure where to begin, as it seems that the last couple of months have been a complete pile of sludge. I keep blinking in the newly arranged spring light, and realized that the past couple of months have passed me by. I haven't enjoyed them, I have endured them.

So in honor of BloPoNo...pho whatever.... a list of sorts

Top Ten Things that I have put up with since December 10th.

10. One of my dear students was arrested, kicked out of his house, and asked me to Foster him (seriously)

9. One of my dear sweet students was stabbed in the back 7 times with a pair of scissors. She didn't even know the guy.

8. I joined and quit a yoga studio

7. My mom moved into my condo, I got her a job at my school, which they promptly treated her like shit, and let her go. Nice.

6. I have eaten my way through 3 large boxes of Valentines candy, and gained a few pounds.

5. I had a serious infection and had to go to the Dr. I hate going to the Dr.

4. I have read each and every self help book the public library has to offer on emotional issues. And not one of them was helpful.

3. Each and every night, I wander aimlessly around my giant empty house, with nothing to do, nothing I want to do, and no one to do it with. I am lonely.



2. My condo has been on the market for 6 months. I have no money, and all my furniture and art is at the other place. I am a in a no-mans land.

1. Everyday I watch my perfect marriage crumble into an unrecognizable heap of dashed dreams.


So now it is March, and I can't help but feel that with the repeal of winter, and the hope that Spring brings, as the earth warms, and the plants start their lives anew, that maybe, this will all be over soon. Soon I will feel the warmth of the sunshine on my tender little heart.

I had to come up with a quick assignment for my AP kids, and this was it.


I think it turned out "swimmingly." No, seriously I think it is quite cute, and a good project to break up space and play with color.

I haven't been able to get anything done lately. Nothing, the list only gets longer and longer, and I am not even doing Christmas this year.

Oh Pink. Yep, this is one pink mama, perfect for your princess in her pretty pink bedroom. The third in the series. Click Here to see it, and of course buy it!

Nope. Didn't do it. Just couldn't pull through the everyday thing. I hurt somebodies feelings, and that just makes everything not fun anymore.

So we will stick to nice things, and occasional blogs with pretty art. I am good at that. Nobody reads this silly thing anyway.

Here is my new painting. I like it mucho. It is pretty. You can find it on Etsy, where you can purchase it, and keep it in your pretty blue bedroom.
