Progress

[ellenmillion]

It's grindstone (grindstone) this week - supposedly to end by Wednesday, and I'm not doing so hot yet! I keep getting distracted by non fiction ideas.

Have done a ton of art this week - lots of work on the last two color commissions I'll do for a LONG time, a small graphic design freelance project, more roses, the most complicated inkwork I've probably ever done (nearly finished! Gods, I never want to draw spiderwebs and bugs again...). I've been playing hookey from the Internet a bit - or at least, from my Internet obligations... totally neglecting my own forums (which apparently need my kick in the butt to stay active), and getting little bits of coding done here and there and planning Big Things for the grand re-opening. Finished the fiction and art sections of EMG-Zine.

But mostly, we've been working on the house.

*clears throat*

MY SHOWER DRAINS! In fact, aside from a potential future washing machine, the outlet plumbing is 100% finished. Done, done, done.

In addition, my studio now has a door. It's a wonderful french-style double-door, solid wood that matches the pale birch of the siding, with a (locking) antique brass side-lever handle. Gorgeous. I owe you photos. (Lots of photos, actually.)

Crap. I haven't even had time to start on grindstone. But the week started a day late for me because when Jenavira announced it, it was already Thursday for me. I'm determined to put in something before the end of the week.

Pity non-fiction doesn't count. I need to finish two articles and two reviews by tomorrow. >.>

... is a fabulous thing! We've almost finished the painting in our son's room, which is the last thing in there -- oh wait, except for a closet door -- before he moves in. Er, he's 2 now... :)

Yay for home progress! Yay for a REAL STUDIO!
