Why Not?

It seems like a lot of people are joining the Sarahah website, where people can leave anonymous messages, and I decided that maybe I should too. I mean why not? Most people aren't going to care and I'm sure a lot of people are going to be leaving negative messages anyway. But I figured I might as well join for the time being too.

I chose Teaghan to be my representative because, he has that deer in the headlight look, and I'm guessing it's how the site is going to make me feel in the end.

Music Monday - Be Bouncy

Sometimes we want to bounce and think outside the box of our daily life. Music helps us do this. But sometimes the messages music sends to us aren't the ones that people are initially looking for. So this week's music is a bit different than some of the choices that were shared of late. But I hope you enjoy them anyway.

I See Stars - Violence Bounce (People Lie)

One OK Rock - Clock Strikes

The Offspring - Why Don't You Get A Job

The Backstreet Boys - One Phone Call

Midnite Eve - Walk of Shame

Music Monday : Not Quite The Same

Today I chose songs with similar titles, that may seem to have very little in common with each other. But each song has a recurring theme that connects it to the others, and that's what helped inspire me to put them together like this.

I hope that this coming week you have a great time and that your summer has been going smoothly as well as safely along. Be magical and let us know what you're up to.

Ruth B - Lost Boy

Patty Griffin - Peter Pan

This Wild Life - Lost Boys

5 Seconds of Summer - Lost Boy

The 69 Eyes - Lost Boys

Sorry for The Dead Air

But I have been a little busier than I expected to be in the past few weeks. Sadly this means that I haven't had the time to write things for you, or to share some of the amazing artists  that I have been having the chance to enjoy. So I must let you know, that there will be a few reviews of some of the amazing things I've seen and participated in.

I have also been working on various craft and art projects. I really am enjoying the challenges presented by the craft swaps, to make something creative that someone else will enjoy. I also find that there are a large number of ideas that I am taking from paper into reality, and it's making me extremely happy to be able to create things. I've missed creating for a very long time, and having the challenges that I am making for myself are wonderful. I love being able to make things, other than drawings.

It's refreshing and it's bringing me back to life. At least that's how I feel. Works in progress are challenging my personal expectations. I have a project that has been giving me a lot of trouble, and I'm very disappointed that it hasn't gone the way I planned, but I can explain the problems that have been plaguing me more thoroughly after the package gets shipped out.

The painting above I've been working on for one of the swaps I'm participating in. This was 2 sessions into it I think, maybe 3. But It's looking pretty good now. But again you'll have to wait to see what it is looking like at the finish for a while.

This sketch though is one that I made for my boyfriend. He has it hung up at his cubicle at work. It's a lot of fun to make things for other people to enjoy. I really enjoyed making him smile. But yeah there are a few different images that you might see in the near future once I have finished them.

Anyway thank you for your patience and you'll hear some new things from me in the near future. We have got a lot of fun things in the work.

Just Visiting : Shakespeare in Delaware Park : Macbeth

Macbeth is a play many people get excited about having a chance to see. It's also a play that we have remembered lines from, "out damn spot!". Shakespeare in Delaware Park is performing the show for the rest of their season this summer.

July 27, 2017 through August 20, 2017

Yes I know you may have read this before but as a reminder please keep in mind the following information.

Tuesday through sunday evenings at 7:30 pm you can enjoy a free evening of professional theatre. Bring a blanket or chair to sit on, your own refreshments and someone to enjoy the show with, unless you prefer to sit alone. They do accept donations.

Like past years I do recommend that you head to the park earlier than show time to get better seats, as it is frequently crowded. There are some restaurants in the area, but it's better to bring something with you to enjoy during the show.

I know I mentioned it in the past, by I will repeat myself because there are only so many ways to say things at times. If you're uncertain as to the part of Delaware Park the stage is located in, it's basically behind the Albright Knox Art Gallery. Please keep in mind that parking is on a first come first serve basis, so if you wish to park closer to the event you should go early. If you have children there is a wonderful playground close to the staging area so the kids can play before the show if you come early enough.
