Most Sincerely,

Its has been ages and ages since I've posted anything. I'm sorry, I blame life-- the black hole that sucks up all my Maggietime. This whole month of August has been insane. The first week was alright and ended with a weekend I've been meaning to write about forever, but then the second week came along and ate me so yeah. The third and fourth weeks digested me. And now we are on the final leg of August and if you have payed attention in biology class you know where Maggie is headed (Pffft... flush).
You may be wondering what has happened in life that has affected the existence of my Maggietime. Well, there was work (a lot of work) and then there was the tiny incident where our landlord (who we have been very good tenants for) freaked out and threatened to call the police to remove us from her property for trespassing, all after she cashed our rent check for this month. We decided that it wasn't in our best interest to stay under this roof so we found another and made the decision to move before the end of the month. This was all decided when the end of the month was approximately two weeks away. Now the end of the month is nigh and nigh, and we are only partially moved. So yeah, things have been busy.
Anyway, I am posting mainly because I am buzzing on caffeine from too much coffee (sweet nectar of the gods) and I am avoiding the dishes that leer at me in the kitchen. While things have been stressful here lately I believe I have been doing a good job at keeping my emotions under control. Albeit there have be been a couple freak out moments, but all in all my spirits have been kept relatively high. I attribute this to all the wonderful peoples I have around supporting me. Thank God for them. Also, Bob Marley has woven a safety cocoon around me, his No Woman, No Cry is now my anthem. Thank God for music.
All this busyness has left me craving creative stimulating. I feel creatively bankrupt. A few minutes a day I spend browsing the internet for beautiful pictures and words, and while they satiate a portion of that creative desire I still feel the need to create. I am biding my time until I can site down and write or stand up and click my camera. Hopefully it happens sooner than later, because I need that in my life. I am an artist and this period of life has shown me how important creating is to my soul.

Oh yeah, and I'm getting married in October.
