the coming of the storm February 24th, 2012

I have the Italian news roaring in the background with some nothern piemontese woman rolling her r's and making me mad. For lack of time to get the remote to change this atrocity, I can but only get a glimpse through the kitchen door window, of the grey gloomy afternoon, showing signs of little snow flakes, lazily falling down. Not the kind of snow that will "stick" to the ground. I read on Mikki's Facebook page that signs of a serious storm are heading her way. She lives in VA Beach. Whatever happens to her, inevitably happens to us up here in Montreal, Canada hours later. Reminants of violent weather.
I am currently working on my website. For failure of finding a reliable individual to FINISH my websites, both my art one and the jewelry one- I took matters into my own hands. Why not? I do everything else. No matter how slowly it comes along, it will get done. That is what counts.
People are asking me, "So Rose, when is the next BIG show?" I just ponder over this question and can't even respond like when peanut butter makes your palette stick so much you can't even open your mouth if you tried. Hmmm...good question. I am not committing to any show right now. It's that time of an artist's life, where I feel I need to find myself again. Yes yes...self-destructive mode, brooding.... suffer in silence time. Nah. Just a time where changes have to develope and the body and mind require a time of reflection and peace. A time to just "catch up". I am entitled to it, that is what I tell myself to justify it. After all, the last two years have been nothing short of hellish. So why not? I am taking a leave of absence from everything.
Goodbye world... I will see you all soon :)
