The world is an amazing place. Strangers come out of the Internetsy depths to show their support to another stranger. It gives me hope in many ways, not just for myself but for the state of the whole planet. How grandiose I sound! Hah :) ! David and Nancy, I'm at a loss for words, so I'll just say Thank You! Thank You! and Thank You!
It's really been, for the most part, a rotten year for me. But I won't go into details. It's been one thing after another with a few bright moments, including this past weekend when all of you spoke up and told me your take on things, which pumped me up so much that yesterday I forgot about the laundry and other "unimportant" things such as chores, and actually got to work. I'll post a photo or two later tonight since unfortunately I couldn't locate the USB cable for my camera, and I did take a few photos to share.
And again, thanks!

over the past (difficult) year i've been absolutely amazed by the support i've received via the internet. people i've never met send me presents! had i known blogging would be like this i'd have started mine a long time ago instead of feeling secluded and sorry for myself in the hills.
I take your word for it. The support really shows through in your blog. I think that's one of the many reasons I enjoy reading it. There are so many positive people that visit it. And Plainfield is so close! I grew up in Noho (grade school, jr. high, etc.). Amazing :)
Hi Julita.
Thanks for following my blog. And PLEASE don't give up on your art. It's gorgeous. I'm glad people showed you support, so here's mine too.
I know what you mean about the tough year. I've had one too, but I can tell that your art is a spiritual thing for you. You can use that spiritual heart to help get you through. And don't worry about feeling like you should be doing more. You do what you need to do, even if it takes longer than wished for. Sometimes we have to take breaks or deal with the rest of life. That doesn't mean your art is being suffocated. Maybe those struggles can go into your art.
