Alone Time and a Little Art Retreat



I have taken myself on a mini art retreat....
...up to the lake house...
...all alone.



I brought art supplies...lots of them...
my books, magazines....



I have lots of cleaning and preparation to do for the company that will be coming this summer...
...so I should be pretty busy for the next few days...



...but I am alone...
Mr. Flea and Starla are home.

The drive up was long and leisurely...
...stopped at two of my favorite antique shops...
...took my time...
...found some fun little things.



I used to crave alone time...it seemed like every single moment of my day was filled with other people talking...needing something from me.
Not so long ago...I led a very busy life.

Today I am alone and so far am enjoying the space, the quiet and the simple natural beauty of the lake and mountains.

In a few hours it will be dark...
...I think I will be missing Mr. Flea and Starla then.
Hopefully there won't be any bears around...
I was told at the store that frost was expected tonight...brr
...and no one to cuddle with!

I will report in tomorrow to let you know how I survived the night and how my art projects are coming! Have a good night! :)

I can do this!
