I figured I'd try it out since I love following blogs. I'll let you guys know what I think when I have messed around with it more.

Despite it all...

Despite all of the ups and downs of the past few weeks, and despite the feelings of depression for what I want and don't yet have...


I truly am blessed. And it is because of those blessings that I am so grateful to my Father in Heaven.

Fathers Day

I am so grateful to my dad! I am so lucky to have him for my dad, and I can't imagine anyone better! 

Here's what I made for him this year. 

Watercolor

I thought I loved acrylic paints when I first started painting....

I have since found something I love even more! Watercolor. It's such a wonderful medium to use! I know that I don't know much about using it, but I'm practicing, and it's looking pretty neat!

I will show you one of the pieces I did recently.

She is a water nymph.... or a water lady of some kind. I don't really know, I just know that that's what the paper wanted to be, because I really didn't plan this painting out.


I finished another one today. I'll show a practice thing I did, but as much as I want to, I won't post about my favorite painting EVER until after Father's Day. (Yes, I made it for my daddy.) But just so you know, I really can't wait to show it off!!!!!! :D Only like three more days!!!!

So, just one more, it's a bald eagle head (The body is there, I just didn't paint it. :P haha)

Does anyone else know how it feels....

To see everyone else getting exactly what you've been wanting for many months?




I am so happy for everyone, but I can't help feeling sad.



Maybe I need to stay off of social media. My confidence and hope are plummeting.

I don't know what to do....

I feel so down.

I thought it was because I'm bored. But I'm not sure that's the real reason.



I just don't know what to do.

Bored

It is day 2 of summer break (not including the holiday weekend) and I am pretty much bored.

Yes, there is tons of stuff I could be doing. Like emptying more boxes from my room and putting things away or cleaning the house. Heck, I could even be swimming!

But I'm not because I'm tired of going through boxes and putting things away. We don't have the cleaning stuff I need/want in order to clean. (We have a broom and laundry detergent. That is it. And I really don't want to just use towels/paper towels to clean the floor.) And I hate being outside in the heat of the day. Okay, not really. I just really do not want to burn from the midday sun.

Instead, I have started sitting at my computer a little more. I've been blasting my Disney spotify. I have been drawing like crazy. I have been watching Netflix. And I do go swimming. (Just not until after 3, sometimes after 4.)

So I guess it's my own fault that I'm getting bored. That just means I'll have to start exercising more or having parties with people.

Kara? Ali? Anyone want to come swim/hang out? haha




But really. I'm kind of going insane here.
