Reconnecting

I have joined the reconnecting passion of the latest new thing called Facebook. I know there's a myspace - I was afraid of the rumors that it had turned into a over glorified free for all with no moral basis. I have no proof - but it was enough to make it so that I did no more than make an account so I could see pages friends wanted me to view. On Facebook though I've found a home - a place to play - and all of a sudden some wonderful old friends. It's like a High School reunion without the travel costs - minus all the wierd awkwardness because there are pictures, and histories, and chats. I'm really enjoying seeing old friends, and reconnecting with the people that used to know me. I have no idea what the future will hold, but if it's filled with good friends I'm really looking forward to it. I forget that alot of people didn't know that Caleb and I had married - that we have been married for 13 years. I forget sometimes that it wasn't general knowledge. He's been my husband, friend and companion - for me I have a daily reminder in the beautiful life we've created. We don't live lavishly - simply and happily would be a better description. We have our two children, our dog and two cats. We have a garage, a backyard, and a mortgage - typical American lifestyle to be honest. I am an artist - part of the art guild here where I live. I love to draw, paint, sculpt - and now that my kids are a bit older I can indulge in such creative ideas as writing childrens books and making hand crafted creations. My passion lies in my drawings though - and I have whole worlds yet to explore. For those reading this just finding me - the web link is http://www.TRCreations.com -- my new ventures :)

Have a beautifully creative day!!

The house is quiet. It is strange still not having my kids full time. I thought I would find myself endlessly creating with wild abandon. That hasn't been the case. In fact most of the time I spend the time reflecting on what makes me tick. I have told my therapist I am my own best subject - I honestly mean it. I have turned my life inside out and backwards in my mind in the attempt to seek a healthy mentality. My life isn't that different from most people - we all have our trials and our tribulations. We all face challenges in a myriad of ways and live the life we've been given in the ways we see fit. What I'm finding as the days pass and I get used to being on my own is that creativity still runs through my veins as strongly as ever. It is presenting itself in different ways though. I write alot more, I've reinvented my wardrobe, My arrangements are getting better and quicker. My jewelry is taking on a whole new flavor, and I have a collection of sh...

New Life

So much has changed since my last post, and yet in a way nothing has changed. I am still seeking balance within myself. I am still trying to figure out what life and living is. The one answer I have found to be true is that I wasn't being true to myself. Due to that real failing towards myself I couldn't be much for anyone else around me. The past couple of months I have made tough decisions for the betterment of all. Some have called those decisions selfish - but if they had walked in my shoes and saw and felt what I felt they may or may not have made the same decisions. I don't posses any mind other than my own - and therefore cannot make any decisions beyond those I feel are the best for myself and my children at the time the decision is made. As a result of those decisions I sit in my own place, an apartment I now call home filled with light and color. There has been a series of emotional battles fought upon these floors - all within my own mind and heart. At f...

The quest for monies took all my minutes and brain powers this last week.  January quest was stopped at drawing #9. Quest complete - but not completed. Now on to the next quest!  (can't stop the momentum - just need to keep showing up to the canvas) February is a sketchbook diary - something I have wanted to try for awhile now. I am three days into February and just starting - so behind but not behind.  Just need to get my journal set up for three pictures at least and keep going.  I will post pictures here as well as my Instagram account which can be found here:  https://www.instagram.com/tina.nordloh/ The day is almost half over - time to get my journal going :D
