Real life vs Creative life

if you've been following me for a bit, you might have noticed that i've been struggling lately. like more than normal. energy levels have been low and creativity has been sparse. I had chalked it up to a busy work schedule with lots of travel, but it turns out that i have been fighting Mono.. seems like something i should have had in high school or college, but no- it waited until 36 to come along and kick my ass. i'm kind of proud that i didn't miss 2-3 weeks of work due to it, like some folks do, but i chalk that up to pure stubbornness, not any kind of easy infection. The doc says that mono in adults, especially ones that get strep throat once and ear infections twice during the span, can take 6-8 weeks to get over it and i should be feeling better in the next week or so.. bleh!

its a relief to know why i have been so tired and achy, and generally just lacking the ability to do much. all that combined with a wicked deficiency of vitamins, i'm actually doing better than one would expect. I seem to be the fail at taking care of myself, even though i've been eating healthier. It all goes back to that being done with adulting thing. :)

All that aside, i did get 11 pairs of earrings made this week at Open Studio Night, although the phone died before i could get a photo. I'll update once i get one taken.

Here's a kitten photo to be a place holder. :)Willow has laser eyes, shadow is between them and zelda is like "mom- stahp!!!"
