Distracted by sparkly things and such.

Per usual...awake at 7am.  What in the world is wrong with me that I can't sleep in?!  So I head to the 'studio kitchen'...take a look at the chaos...straighten up a little and think to myself...today I am going to paint that big canvas.  Maybe I will finish.  So, sun is up, I am up...the stage is set to be productive...(right)

...well, then....I get a little carried away organizing...I am such a visual person that I can't start working until there is a little order, even if I know I am going to make a total mess...so here I am, shifting, sorting, grouping...some time passes...and then I decide I need another table so I don't keep hijacking the one we use for the laptop...so I set that up...and the 'studio' is creeping into the dining room...

..and then I decided that I had to get all of these paintings up and on a wall somewhere, so I made an impromtu art gallery in the second bedroom......and then...painted some wooden plaques...

i...am...easily...distracted....

...so then...why not decorate for Christmas?  Sure!

...ten wooden plaques, seven 12x12 holiday trees in progress, a Chi Omega plaque for cousin Jen...assorted sparkly things all over the apartment to signal that the holidays are here...and the painting...is just...sitting there.  on the easel.  so forgiving.  sigh.
