"A Woman's Nooks And Crannys Are Very Handy Things"

 I have always said that breasts are made for babies. 

But long after the children have been weened, 

it is so nice to know I have re-purposed them.

And not for the purpose of pleasing the boys

Their eyes may look but their hands may not roam

In this handy boob holder just for my cell phone."

"Too Much To Do. So Overwhelmingly Blue"

"Too Much To Do. So Overwhelmingly Blue"

[Project Life 365 Photo Challenge: Blue]

 I love these challenges because they get my creative juices flowing for other projects in my life. 

Sometimes I think I am actually drowning in ideas.

My goal in this challenge was to simply photograph blue things. That is what today's challenge called for. But then I had to go and add a collage image of myself, and a pretty disturbing one at that, to the objects I set out to capture on my camera. 

The ironic thing is I am so overwhelmed with clutter and yet I create more mess when I allow my muse to lure me into playing. It does not take much for my whimsical deity to coerce me into creative temptations. This always happens when there is so many other things that need to be done. There is always definitely something that needs to be done.

It is like peer pressure in an artsy sense. I guess I am still, within myself, that teen who would sneak out of the house by climbing onto the roof and down the huge oak tree, just to avoid doing chores, and instead goof around with my friends. I admit, I have not completely grown up. I hope I never do.

This completed image, however, just sort of fell into place that it reflects my procrastination and soul engulfing burden. But isn't this what this blog is about? Isn't reorganizing my life while still embracing my love of creating the reason I have committed myself to this journey? But then why am I spending time on other web sites, pouring my heart and soul into other projects?

I can't help it. It is childish. It is adolescent.

Perhaps I just want to "play" and inter-react with other visual creatives.

Maybe I just want to avoid the massive amount of grown up responsibilities I have towering before me.

Yet, without my surrender to my creative wistfulness I will find myself in a hollow of despair. My yearnings, unanswered, will dry up my spirit and I will I indeed find myself "Blue".

Suddenly it all just stopped!!! Before it could even get started ...

Dear Readers,

I started up this blog in September of 2012. I had big plans to go through all my boxes of memories and turn them into collages, save the images digitally, share them here with all of you, and then toss the tangible items out. However Hurricane Sandy struck with a storm surge of four feet of sea water entering the garage and pushing it's way through and destroying the bottom half of the house I was living in. 

The flood decimated many of my precious papers I had earmarked for this blog and well as so many of my belongings, including but not limited to clothing, furniture, books, my brand new green screen set (oh the things I had planned to do with that), and so many of the magazines I collected for collaging (Oh Noooooo!!!!!!!!), just to name a few items.

I have been having a difficult time getting my life back on track although it never really stayed on track to begin with. I had barely moved on from Hurricane Irene the year before which also left much damage in it's wake.

I will be back to this blog as soon as my Muse moves me to do so. As of right now I am focusing on my physical and mental well being, moving on from the storm damage, re-organizing my things, and working on my vegan videos (more about that later).

Don't worry, this Paper Whore cannot be kept down for long. LOL, come Hell or High Water!!!!
