I will.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Melody!<BR/><BR/>Deborah, the music is definitely the key, always inspires me:)<BR/><BR/>Ohboya, Ahhh, the old space is currently being prepared for new paint on the walls. It is a wreck! Good suggestion though, thanks.<BR/><BR/>Lisa, I know, I should really not be checking my emails so obsessively, it totally makes me procrastinate. But I still like to get them:)<BR/><BR/>Anytime Brooke! And bring that cute little baby along with. I miss you too and I do hope you'll visit us someday.<BR/><BR/>The problem is, Gary, that I didn't mind NOT painting, but I didn't even take advantage of doing other stuff, and I didn't even go outside all that much. Blahhh!<BR/><BR/>Indiartist, I might be over the hump now, I think sending the kids ff to school this morning helped, as well as getting in front of some half finished work. Thanks!<BR/><BR/>Thanks Martha, I know I could take even more time off and it is tempting but I am feeling crappy about all this and I do feel much better when I am keeping busy. Not crazy busy but just regular busy is good.Tracy Helgesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07510044613771862211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-36689145366005050692008-09-03T11:52:00.000-04:002008-09-03T11:52:00.000-04:00Tracy, I think you could be forgiven for taking th...Tracy, I think you could be forgiven for taking the whole blasted rest of the year off!

These moments pass, too. Sometimes just shutting off the laptop and standing in front of blank canvas helps.indiaartisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05797755015544790193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-62196892682303902062008-09-03T08:17:00.000-04:002008-09-03T08:17:00.000-04:00Not paint for a month or two?

Reading your last few posts really, really makes me want to fly out there and just sit and hang out with you and talk talk talk for awhile, check out your new studio, drive by all these barns you paint, hug Ginger (and everybody else) and talk some more.

If you...Maybe there's too many changes all at once. If you're not feeling it, why not try starting a painting in your "old studio space" and see if that doesn't kick-start you. I know for myself, if too much changes -- it throws me off. Just a suggestion. You'll figure it out for yourself. Main thing is to just start!Traci Boyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10251269381337300601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-75640009304261093482008-09-02T21:12:00.000-04:002008-09-02T21:12:00.000-04:00Yes, just put music on or whatever you do, and get...Yes, just put music on or whatever you do, and get to it.
