Hello, hello there my friends!<\/p>\n

This is Freewheelin’ Friday ‘I lost count of the number”
\nand there’s certainly not much freewheelin’ for me today!
\nI worked all day, and am facing another busy weekend.
\nAaaaarghhh… I do miss my journals, my paint and I especially
\nmiss FREE TIME. I miss the days on which I got up early, knowing
\nthat I had all the time of the world to spend with my art journals.
\nI must abide by a minute here and there to add something to my
\nart journal pages – but that’s the philosophy behind ‘art journal every day’
\nisn’t it? That is exactly what I’m doing these days – work hard during the day,
\nand play with my art journal pages for a few minutes in between diner and
\nfave tv-shows\/bed.<\/p>\n

In those ‘lost minutes’ I did manage to get something done though,
\nso I’m glad to announce that I can show you 2 (yes, TWO) list pages today.<\/p>\n

List #25 – Thing’s I’d rather be doing right now<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I jotted this list down one evening at the beginning of the week, just after
\nI saw a music documentary on tv. (Now that I think of it – I can’t even
\nremember what it was about, or which day it was! I’m getting old… eeeckkkk…
\nor maybe stress takes its toll?)<\/p>\n

Anyway, that’s where the ‘take a plane’ part comes from.
\nAs you know, I don’t like to travel but that night, I suddenly felt an itch and
\nthought that it would be so much fun to fly to the US with my beloved, sit in
\na bar (is it allowed to smoke in bars in the US? That’s something I need to
\nknow!) and hear a band play! It may never come this far, but I find consolation
\nin the fact that we possess tickets to the Eels concert in June! There will be
\nno traveling involved – it’s nearby and we can get there by bike!
\nI will be there with my beloved and son, and I’m soooo looking forward to it!
\nIt has been ages since I went to a concert! (over 10 years now – or more?!<\/p>\n

List #28 – Places I’ve been<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The prompt for list #28 said ‘Vacations to take’ but – as I stated above –
\nI don’t like going on vacation and I certainly don’t plan vacations or
\n– god forbid – make lists about it! So I turned the prompt around,
\nand listed the places I have been on vacation ‘back in the days’.
\nIt’s hard to read, because I didn’t want to spoil the fabulous photo
\n(from a street in Calcutta. The photo comes from an old National
\nGeographic magazine). I used transparent stickers for the title, they
\ntotally blend into the background, and I wrote the places on tracing
\npaper – which is also a bit transparent.
\nHere’s where I’ve been on vacation:<\/p>\n
