All of the things

Hello 👋 I hope you are going great. 

You might have noticed that I did not get a newsletter or blog out for May (or maybe you didn’t  😂) I was struck down with the Flu and well became completely useless.  I have never had the flu before, so I am guilty of being a bit ignorant to its powers. I’m even going to get the flu shot as I definitely do not want that again. It literally knocked me out for the best part of two weeks. As it was I was already struggling to squeeze everything in to my schedule.

(Real footage of me trying to escape the house)

This year I made a promise to myself that I was going to say yes to most things (within reason) and get my work into more galleries, shows and retail stores. I also kept in mind that I was only going to say yes and do all the things if they would not compromise time with my kids and my health.

Epic fail. 

A couple of things I did not consider when I  made this pact with myself,

• When you have children lots of random things pop up that you were just not expecting.

• With winter comes lots of colds and flus and other nasty bugs

• All the galleries in the entire world seem to have all the shows on at exactly the same time!

• My work would miss a ton of deadlines increasing the amount of work I had to do in a very short space of time

• Me getting said flu and being bedridden for the best part of 2 weeks
