Last weekend, the movers drove away and I began my new life in the perfect home for me. I am head-over-heels in love with my cottage. It was as though I’ve been waiting for it for years. I am getting settled, but the most important furniture won’t arrive until mid-week: BOOK SHELVES! I am surrounded by boxes of books until they come.
My studio is shaping up. I love having it next to the kitchen. I’m baking a giant butternut squash, listening to great music, and drawing ideas for my next art project all at once.
This is one of the best things that has happened to me in my life. I am free to grow as an artist again! I bought beautiful house plants on clearance, and have potted them up for all my sunny windows. I commute 4 whole minutes to school! (It was an hour a day, minimum, before). Sweet, sweet, SWEET!
