I could sit here and tell you how my life has been super crazy with my son graduating from Elementary School, and the last two weeks of school and fieldtrips, and planning birthday parties, and trying to clean up our house and some of this, and some of that…Or I could just get to it and start answering your questions…. so yeah. let’s do that.
[ Read More → ]I wish I could have done a second (or 3rd or 5th..) take, but it has to be legit, so I sound so scattered, though that’s no different than what I’m really like…excuse the dorkyness.
Thanks again, and keep reading to see my answers to your awesome questions. I will answer all of them, just have patience.

My house is still being attacked by bins and boxes with toys and art supplies and office stuff. The happy day where each thing walks itself into their new location has not arrived. It’s been slow, but I’m at the tail end of it. I should have my studio up and running by next week.
