Tuesdaily, all personal, daily stuff... nothing exciting.

Oof, tired! Had a checkup this morning, which went quite smoothly - Mom and guppy are both in great shape, heartrate was strong and steady. Jake and I met the midwife who job-shares with the midwife I've been seeing, and we both liked her a lot, which is a relief. I picked up mail, got a flu shot, and went grocery shopping. (They gave you a 10% off ALL your groceries coupon if you got a flu shot at Safeway, so I got rather more than I had been planning to...)

Today's To-Do:

Process abstracts

Paint abstracts

Scan Skycats

Nap

Laundry

Fire

Dishes

Write at least a few hundred words on Off Rails

(not necessarily in this order...)

In freelance news, I am holding off work for one client until they pay a back bill, and getting ready to tackle some big jobs for two other clients; I've got a meeting on Thursday to go over one of the projects and pick up checks for some older invoices. Dry spell over? I can hope - I'm spitting distance to my personal financial goals for the year, so I think I may make it!

My meeting today put the work I absolutely needed on my plate... but I am saving space for a commission for you, if you'd like - I would love to do a piece for you in December! Email me your wishes and I'll see what I can come up with! You are the best!

I have nothing in mind, I was just looking to help......But if I come up with something I'll let you know.

Oh....What color is your baby's room...&....when are you due ???

Did I mention you were the best? :)

The nursery is a happy, bright blue-green (Valspar's Exotic Sea, to be exact) - we're doing a underwater tropical fish and rainforest sort of theme, and it's got white and light wood trim, with dark blue curtains.

I am due at the end of February... we're half-hoping for a Leap Year baby, since next year is a leap year!! (Though I suspect by that point I will just be happy to have baby OUT already.)

Oh yay! :) I never make any personal financial goals, I just "SELL SELLSELL!"

These are overall household goals, not necessarily EMG or personal art goals - I need to contribute X amount towards our bills and savings. Most of that comes from programming, these days... but it's always fund and rewarding when it comes in from art instead. :)
