This week I’ve been living in the future. True story. And it’s not like the Jestson’s future. I can see the good things that are heading my way. I mean I just got paid for making doodles for people. I have a client based on something I see as the most fun side project ever!
And when I met up with my good pal Christine this week she told me that I was looking way more confident than usual. And honestly, I think I am. I am not like on a Charlie Sheen “winning” high or anything. I just know that my optimism is going to get me somewhere really great. And in the middle of this icky tunnel I’m in, I see out the other end and that all the little things I can do well are really going to help me in the future, especially when I emerge from the other side. And most importantly all these things/people trying to bring me down are just temporary. In fact I have how I feel about it lusciously illustrated below:
Also I think this is the best time of anytime to share that I’m going to make this doodling thing into a side business made with heart. I want to make shirts, and bags, table cloths, pillows, and birthday party hats. I want to make custom doodles for people. I want to share my joy with as many people as possible. And I’m going to do it. Maybe you’ll pick up a bag or hat or just keep reading and smiling… stay around and watch my dream come true.

awesome! good for you!!!!! xo
Thanks my lovely Cakes! I hope someday you will sport around a wonderful doodle purse with something romatically Italian or “never trust a fiat”.
Yes! A brainstorm is definitely in order!!!
Brain trust ahoy! :)
I hear the Seattle area is a GREAT place for artsy businesses…and you can get free child labor out of your nieces! :P Love ya!
I would love it! Oh you really have me thinking about it! When can I visit? I want to go there right now!
Come up for Turkey Day!
I’m going to check my time left for the year and tickets. I want to see you guys so bad!!!
Next week! I’m bringing them all back with me this weekend, and if you visit next week, you can help us unpack! :D Or if that sounds boring, just about any time after that.
Oh! And I will proudly wear a T-shirt or hat or even a “Man-Purse” with your doodles on them!
Yay! I’m going to check my time for the year to see how a trip could work out!
And, I think you will look fabuloso in doodle fashions!
I’d buy something for sure. I think you’re really talented. Keep us posted!
Awww, Thank you so much. I’m trying to figure it all out! Hopefully I can make some neat things.
Gift Cards! Don’t forget gift cards!
And salad dressing. Maybe I can Paul Newman it…
