3A: SUMMARY
Wow so I signed a lease on a house that I can’t afford this week. It was a huge jump for me to take, and I am so happy to be leaving the old house. This is my fourth move of this year, not including helping my divorcing parents move AND my best friends divorcing parents move. I am sick of carrying my stuff up and down random staircases. But I think I am finding a good home base.
This week I fell behind with working and with the craziness of moving in to a new house. But I was able to focus on drawing inspiration from gee’s bend and grace rother. I havent been able to do much reading or practical work due to the move but it will all come together soon.
drawing connections through all parts of life – definitely spending this week finishing up the gift quilt and mentally preparing to take on this highly personal project
