Day 28- A picture of you last year and now, how have you changed since then?

2010

2011

I haven't changed that much! I have lost most of the baby weight I gained being pregnant, and am a lot happier than last year, only because I am getting more sleep. Having a baby really changes your life! It's nice that Maddy and I can go on more adventures now :) I didn't like being house bound at all!

Last night I had just put my camera batteries in to recharge and then I heard pop, crackle, pop, pop whoops looks like I will be off into town to get a new charger today. I am pretty sure I got good use out of it LOL!

Don't you love it when you listen to your intuition and it's right! I called into see some friends yesterday afternoon and one of them is leaving Wanganui today. It was nice to spend some time with her as I don't know when she will be back!

I managed to get some painting done yesterday..

The colours are brighter than this photo.

I was surfing the web last night trying to get some ideas for Dad's tattoo and I came across this clip...Youtube clip of the day is Tiki getting his neck tattooed...

I'm so scared of getting a tattoo!

My card of the day is

Good time for new ideas! I was thinking of moving back to live in Palmerston North. It would be nice to hang out with my friends and family over there more. I never seem to get my shit together to get over there much.

11 RULES FOR LIFE ONE - Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully. TWO - Marry a man/woman you love to talk to.

I Wanted to Be an Artist, So I Quit My Job and Became One

"Hi, I'm Christopher. I'm an artist." Exhale, run my fingers through my hair. "What do I do? Oh, I paint. I'm a painter. Yeah, I'm an artist." I tried it out every now and then, in front of the bathroom mirror. It sounded all right. But when I introduced myself as an artist outside my bathroom world of make-believe, I always felt false. I was like Magritte labeling a pipe. If I said I was an artist, I was an artist, right? Not exactly. Since I dedicated forty-plus hours a week to my corporate graphic design job, I was lucky if I painted a couple of hours a week. I came to despise myself for this self-deceit, for my inability to embrace what I really wanted to be. I wanted to be an artist. So I committed myself to becoming one.
