Life is Art
My life, as a mother / lover / writer / seamstress / cook. Whew.
Life is Art is Kelly Hogaboom in small, digestible bits.
Featured Project: Bike Chaps

This design was actually entered in the Etsy/Instructables Sew Useful contest. These are functional, cheap to make, and sold on Etsy within an hour or so.

I was up late last night. Anxious, upset, possibly my choice of a post-dinner cappucino wasn't a good choice. Who knows? I couldn't sleep and there was no one to keep me company. Eventually, yes, I even DID CHORES. Chores, hey - what I do every day, most of the day. And even late - 2 AM - I wasn't tired. I had two glasses of red wine and read and finally fell asleep in the bed next to my children at about 3:30. Only to wake up four hours later and get up, get the kids ready, cook breakfast, make up some food for a preschool party, blah blah, you get the drill.
Today I (sadly, very sadly) gave up coffee after 2 PM. I am now trying not to think about a drink. Instead I need water, natural, deep sleep, a calm book. I need to quit running my ass ragged. For now: a hot shower with Sophie, pajamas, blankets.
