Good bye October

As cliched as this may sound, I can't believe it is already the end of October. I officially saw my first tv advert with bells and red santa hats and the summer storms have started.

On an aside, I must say that storms make me really crazy-happy. It's something about the power and orchestra of the strong wind and the tree branches dancing wildly and the thunder and the lightning. And then those first big fat rain drops that fall on my windscreen and make a sound like "pop... ... pop ... pop ... pop pop.... pop... Pop pop pop!" For me it makes me feel small and at the same time I admire the great enormous strength behind created nature.

Anyway back to October! It just seems like so much has happened this year. I was expecting a lot of it but it's still like looking back and seeing a long section of uphill and going "No way! I just did all that?"

And I think what I regret is that I have been so busy having everything happen that I haven't gotten to do a lot of things I meant to do. There were some people I met for a short amount of time at the start of the year and I really wanted to drop them a line to say hello. But forgetting them for 10 months might be a bit of a long time lapse to account for. I regret that I have been to quick with the things happening and not fully immersed myself in the change itself. Somedays still I am staggering along. Other days I admire the view. I think it would help if I stopped loosing my to do lists before they're completed!

On a good news note, I FINALLY started drawing again. Not particularly well or anything exciting drawn, but I finally started! Next challenge is to stay started and continue. Techniques next!
