Quiet, Frustration, and Reflection

Okay, okay.. I've been kind of quiet lately. My blog posts haven't been as frequent, I haven't posted any new comics or drawings, no updates on books.

Quite frankly, I've been in a little bit of a frustrated slump lately. I've been working here and there on projects, trying to keep up with my boys, and get as much sleep as possible. I've been enjoying the beautiful fall weather. I've been trying to buy a house, and it's not really going as planned. I've been bingeing on Stranger Things with my husband.

I've got so many ideas, but I'm feeling uninspired and foggy all the time.

I've decided to take a little me time. I'll probably be a little quiet online, but I'm still going to be working toward finishing the projects I already have started before moving on to anything else. As updates are available, I will post them. 

I have a radio interview coming up this Thursday, so that's pretty exciting! I'll let you guys know how it goes! 

Always Keep Adventuring

Snow Drifting

If you live in the Heartland of America, then there's a good chance that you're experiencing snow and ice right now. As an Illinoisan, snow and ice are just a part of our everyday lives during the wintertime. Last winter was rather dry, and we only had a small dusting the entire season.

Eight hours later, the temperature had dropped to 41, and by the time I made it home at around 10:30 PM, it had dropped an additional ten degrees. By 11:00 PM, it was sleeting. The sleet continued until early Friday morning and eventually turned to snow. Personally, I LOVE snow! Fall and winter are my favorite times of the year, and snow is one of the few things in life that hasn't lost its magic as I've aged. I love sledding and snowboarding (even though I recently bruised my tailbone by pretending I'm still 17 and agile, not 27 and app...

Busy, Busy, Busy

"Patience is a virtue." This is a quote I've modeled a great deal of my life around. And though it's often my daily mantra, I've been finding it harder and harder lately to keep it at the forefront of my perspective. I've got SO many things that I  want to do: finish writing three books that are rattling around my head, illustrate two of those books, start new projects, buy a house, feel comfortable, lose the last twenty pounds that are hanging on. But, not one  of these things are simple. Not one  of these things happen over night or instantly. And I'm struggling  with this concept. I've always considered myself a very patient person. But it's been so difficult lately. And I think I know why: I'm holding onto it. I'm pressuring myself when I shouldn't feel like I need to. I have had a very hard time of giving these things to God. Letting Him take the reigns and waiting patiently has been a struggle. It didn't used to be...
