Got some tires today for the ford. It is the first time in a decade I bought 4 tires at a time. I am thankful.

What are you going to try to do in 2009?

I'm going to sit down and write mine in Flagler Beach in next week. I'm trying to figure out what direction I want to go in this year.

I am laying on my couch for the first time in three months and cannot move.

These new black boots are sexy beasts.

My last minute orders turned out to be doable. One was an order for next year. The other I referred them to back alley on bridge street. They had one sign. The other one was another artist that was there. All win-win.

I accidentally made 5 copies of a key to my old Siesta Key beach place and not my Casey Key beach cottage...which caused me to notice I had keys from about 4 years of places I never was going back to.

I sort of did a key throwing away voodoo spell to be thankful for those places, to be thankful they were closed doors to important life lessons and to make room on my key ring for more doors, more places and more rooms to love.

Despite some generally unpleasant nostalgia, I feel happy. Cold weather always reminds me of men who are no longer around.

But like the keys, none of them would have fit where I am or where I am going.

My one crush on the MAN WHO CUTS HIS SLEEVES out of his shirt has evaporated. I saw him down with a girl and another man at a bar. They were trying to "help her." Everytime she'd go to the bathroom they would talk about how she was dumb as a box of rocks and stupid to let people use her blah, blah, blah. In 30 minutes they had her diminished from a vibrant perky blond to honest to God with black lines under her eyes that looked like they'd punched her.

Words are like that.

I have had people try to "help" me out like that. It is odd how mad they get when you ask them to please stop helping you so very much.

At any rate, his appeal is from a good distance. He's a mean spirited man who knows everything. And he's married. And he likes to help a woman when she's down, particularly if he can run her down even further.

I ran into a student from school. He was taking his dog to eat at Orphelia's, too. Sadie developed a strange utter hatred for the dog and honest to God, I think she was ready to kick the dogs tush.

I've now run into 4 different sets of students at 4 very different places...which, honest, stresses me out. "Out here" -- I'm RhondaK. I don't like having my rum runner soaked moment of bliss interupted with .."you talked to my class..."

It takes away some bliss.

Though, I did use one incident to find out some good information on placing some Library Resources where students actually look.

And thinking at the Drift In hanging out with some old ghosts. Including about 10 signs of mine that work a longer schedule than me. I am seeping into the stories of this place one word at a time.

People will often believe and say to my face that I do a minor art. When all is said and done the tasteful 1000$ painting in the lobby of the hotel won't be the art they smile, laugh, visit and talk about til the end of their storytelling days.

Better, my art was something they could take home and even have customized for themselves or someone they love.

Words or a way of looking at HAPPY.. even if is a pelican...this is the heart's art.

A sandcastle style of art that belongs to the people, the sea...the sunset that is never the same. And does not last forever.

or so many of the images I just went through from back in July. I rather like her.

I found pics of John painting up the signs for Boomers. They looked good. Real good.

Which...as I always say...it doesn't mean anything if you can do it better if you can't finish it.

I have two calls to make tomorrow about selling somethings. I was trying to find an octopus I painted. I do them so rarely. I've done two custom. Anything else is long, long gone.

This day has not been so very exciting in terms of cash. I am just at the end of it.

Have to get to another show. I hope somethi ng good happens.

I need some uplift

I think I am only up to six. I missed zumba class because I wanted to finish somethings to ship and also the big chalkboard sandwich boards. They have style.

I got to work 10 minutes late. 15 yesterday. Was 40 minutes early one day. But with no breaks and scant lunches...plus it looks like no help and worse coverage ahead...maybe it is stress.

I an considering taking programming courses. I am sick of being a victim of my own ignorance. Visual basic and so on. Programming code. Not beauty school.

For some reason my brain has convinced me I am ready for something. I used to right little program I basic for fun.
