calligraphy

I was thinking I would show a picture of my first attempts at calligraphy, but I’m having more trouble displaying images in my wordpress posts ever since a new back end “upgrade”.  I’ve had one calligraphy class and have another tomorrow, and so far, so good. Foundational hand isn’t the prettiest… so it’ll be a challenge to see how quickly I can do it well enough to move on to something a little more interesting!

I also want to share with you a very cool new site called Mixwit. I would embed my own custom “mix tape” right here, but it’s not supported by wordpress… yet.  You can create your own mixes, name them, and decorate the cassette tape with custom images, tape designs, etc.

Because last week had more than its fair share of negativity and frustration - generated from internal and external sources - I’ve declared this week as a positive energy zone. It simply must be positive and forward-moving, forward-thinking, and that’s it. Despite the fact that one of my fortune cookie fortunes tonight read: “endurance and persistence will be rewarded,” if things are too aggravating this week, they need to get out of the way for now. Seeing as how wordpress is not willing to cooperate tonight, it’s going on the “get out of the way for now” list. For now. Back to practicing my scripty i’s, j’s, h’s, m’s and n’s. For now.
