 Wednesday already - the days melt away.

Finally got out some commissions out today after the lag in printing.  Screens still showing pinholes, but they didn't really affect the printing much.

No work over the weekend - and monday was a holiday, so it wasn't really productive.  I have a lot to do, but im dragging my feet (as usual).  


Printing Nancy on paper right now.  Mystified why I can't get the registration right - makes zero sense.  So I plod along color by color, the hard way.

 Its friday night - - -

ok day, but probably got half done that I should have.  Made screens for commissions, and they all needed to be made again.  Thank god, I figured out how to fix (pinholes galore) - - shorter exposure time.

When I'm working on these prints, I lag so much.  And then problems arise, and all gets delayed.  Its a clusterfuck.


Anyway, back on track, and just plodding along.  Every day, I get more anxious about SM, and the fact that days are going by, stacking up, week by week.  I let time slip away.  I fool myself into thinking it's in abundance, when really it's not.

Thought about taking tomorrow off, but its smarter to work all around.  And emma to great falls, she needs it!

Day was spent cutting and preparing wood for printing.  Found a great long piece of plywood in a dumpster on my walk with Emma yesterday.  Perfect timing.  Easy to cut, and will be great to print on. 

 

I also had plywood that I bought a few weekends ago, but I forgot I put it on the light table, and lost my mind looking around the studio for it.  I was convinced that I had maybe used it?  Because I remember interacting with it, but I was so stumped.  Typical of the time - the digital and real world are blending together, and reality warps a bit.  It's really strange.

Much warmer weather, so easy to be in and out.  Poor Emma having an episode, but it's not that bad.


Feel blah.


Got postcards in finally, and mailed out all my club envelopes.  The whole excitement about it has diffused.  I don't know why.  I hate when that happens!

 I let myself get out of the habit of blogging, and days go by, and I say to myself, ahh, just skip it.  But I think that's a mistake, so maybe I can course correct.


Good day after a few days of lousy discipline over drawing and being productive in general.  I got a few good orders in for commissions, then stalled on actually doing them.  Well, after torture drawing Piper for cord, I think I finally have something I like, so I was able to move on to others and forward.  YAY ! ! ! ! !

Got postcard club up and running, but stalled on that too with delay from vistaprint, and just a feeling like I've over-pushed it already.  Without the cards in hand, I feel bad with all the promo I did.  Got a bunch of subscribers, which only makes me want more.  High hopes for it all.


SM really stalled, and not sure how to proceed.  No check for Jan yet, but I'm expecting it to be small.  Ugh, what to do?  Partially just time of year, but still, wharf has me most concerned...


Really need to set out on new paths, and motivations.  And STOP WASTING TIME monitoring all the websites I use to waste time. 


Ok, enough for today.  oh, also my credit card was stolen for somebody's UBER trip,  Glad I spotted online, but so violated, and pissed I have to get a new card.  FUCKERS,
