Welcome to my Happimess... NESS, Happiness, I meant happiness. Um, ya- that's what I meant. If you could see my studio/office you would totally understand :) (scroll down to see a sneak peek) My life is full of happimess. I know I ought to coin this word. Life is messy. Very very messy. No matter how hard we work to keep it running smoothly it gets messy. Relationships are messy, children are messy. Not having children is messy. My eating habits (I blame it on not having children- I eat in my favourite chair, I eat watching tv, I eat standing in the kitchen, I eat at my desk) my eating habits are messy. My work habits, my cleaning habits, my friendships, my goals. Pretty much everything is one big Happy Mess. And that suits me just fine. Do I wish I had it all together? Yup. Will I ever have it all together? Nope. Is that ok? Yupers. The question is, what will I do about my happimess? Will I try to hide it? Or will I share it. I choose to share it. I want you to know that life is messy. In the world we live in today, where photoshop and instagram (don't get me wrong, I love love love instagram, and the instagram filters- they make my skin look flawless... you can find me using LostBumblebee- but I digress) Nothing is as it seems. Do I love that? No. Can I deal with it? Yes. Because I know everyone is running their own race. I know that what I choose to share is exactly that- what I've chosen to share. So don't believe all you see... don't believe that everyone has it all together except you... they don't... trust me :) I hope you are ok that I share my messy life... Share the mess. We're in this thing together! Share the love, M. 4x6 5x7 8x10 4x6 5x7 8x10 Timothy The Dog + I share a studio :)

Some people were like me & take it down right away, some people keep it up until mid January, & some keep it up until the snow melts. I think it's so awesome how we are all so different & have different traditions in our homes.

Megan Kociolek: “Libraries are mystical places...”
Everyone's coming up with their word of the year or new year resolutions, but I just want / need to take more risks.
In July 1973, accused murderer Karen Skrayp walked free when the forensic evidence against her was found to be inconclusive. Skrayp had been arrested when her alleged victim's hairs were found stuck to her sharpened dentures. Though the hairs clearly belonged to the victim, forensic tests demonstrated that they shared most of their genetic make-up with polyethylene bottles used for carbonated drinks such as 7-UP, E-Cola and Fizzy Gravy. A murder conviction could not be brought against Skrayp who got off with a fine for the lesser crime of littering. The case highlighted a serious environmental problem. Due to the abundance of food preservatives and plastics entering the food chain, people were slowly turning into potentially indestructible 'living dolls'. Indeed, several exhumations showed that cadavers were not decomposing. Human decay rates were slowing to that of discarded bubble wrap or a Wombles lunch box. Scarfolk Council was the first to suggest that church graveyards and crematoria be converted into mass human recycling centres. It proposed that recently deceased relatives be placed into pork-coloured dustbins to be collected bi-monthly for recycling. Human remains would be rendered into drinking straws, lifelike plastic models of children for barren couples, and religious figurines for the intellectually barren. One man, Jack Powers, became so famous for the particularly high plastic content in his body that when he died he was made into his own series of eponymous action figures. A council booklet published in 1979 (see below) proposed that parents treat their children as early as possible so that by the time they are grown up they are already partially putrefied.
