I am very lucky.
Here just a couple of the reasons:
I have a good job, a job that also gives me off on snowy days.
I have a talented and creative boyfriend whom I love very much.
I have a silly and sleepy kitten whom I also love very much.
I have a great apartment, where you can walk places in the snow.
On that note, this > 
is what it's like out today.

is what I am doing today.
And listing these >...
I don't know whether it's the grayness of winter or what but creatively, I'm not doing so hot these days.
I came across Michelle Ward surfing around... and she's a life coach. I always thought everyone could use a life coach. Particularly when I was having my quarter-life crisis... and now here I am again at 30 thinking this is a very good idea.
Her blog has lots of great info, and she totally seems like someone you'd want to hang out with. I totally recommend Motivation Mondays. So, give her a read and let me know what you come up with.
Are you motivated yet??
These are the projects I've got going on right now...
tulip wedding invites... Yankee-themed wedding invites...
a comic-book for a super-cute couple...
and a website/t-shirt design for a band...
When my grandma passed away, I received this small envelope full of photos. I have just now begun to scan them in... for fear that I will do something dumb like misplace them forever. 
these backs say "don't mind the hat/At the Hialeah Race Track Derby/ March 5 -37"
