Saving has become very hard lately. I seem to have no extra money and I have had some big expenses. I guess this is the ebb of the ebb and flow of money.

I am loving the work I am doing now. I feel like my ideas are accelerating faster than I can make them. I am blowing through phases of this work so fast. My pieces for next year are going to be extraordinary and I am so excited to be making them.
