No news is bad news...

I'm bummed! I didn't make the last online DT I tried out for. Thought I had a good chance, but I guess not. I'm not sure what these people are looking for. Now that I tried out for a handful and have been turned down by most, I think that they are looking for the run- of-the-mill LO, easy to duplicate, to make a sketch with. I have been trying to be more creative and artsy, because it makes me feel like I am using my artistic skills- which I am still paying for by the way (student loans). But, if they want linear, simple stuff, I guess I can try again and give them what they want.
It's just frustrating for me, not feeling good physically has been a BIG issue this past year. It is hard to feel like yourself, esp. when you are a stay-at-home-Mom, don't feel good, and can't take care of your family the way they should. But, I am so lucky to have a wonderful, supportive husband who helps out tremendously and understands, and a daughter, who is beginning to understand that her mommy doesn't feel good alot of the time, and needs naps- even if she doesn't.
Anyway, thanks for being at my pity party. I can't stand to look at any scrapbook stuff right now, but I wanted to post my finished LO that I did yesterday. Hopefully I'll be in a better mood in my next post.

Don't ever change your style because you think it's what someone else wants!! I can't count on 4 hands how many times I didn't make the team or the contest finals! You just have to enjoy what you are doing, let your self be you, it will all come! Your work is amazing!!

Welcome Spring!
