What else happened last week…?<\/p>\n

Well, most important thing – my Mojo almost flew out the window.
\nI could only just grab it by its tail and I hang on ever since.
\nRight up to this day, we are engaged in a fierce battle.
\nI win some, I loose some, but I keep holding on.<\/p>\n

Here’s what I did to try and get its ass back inside: I made an ATC.<\/p>\n

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

(Size: 6,35 x 8,89 cm – 2.5 x 3.5 inch)<\/p>\n

By far not the best one I’ve ever made.
\nBut at least I created something –
\nthat’s one – nil for me.<\/p>\n

I started a scrapbook layout (really, I did!)
\nI failed miserably and threw it away.<\/p>\n

1 – 1 draw<\/p>\n

I sank into the feeling that you might recognize (’cause I’m not the only one
\nfeeling like this from time to time, am I?) The feeling that you don’t even want
\nto start something – anything. That feeling sucks all the energy out of you but
\nI did not give in.<\/p>\n

I saw this article in the newspaper about a Tim Burton exhibition in Paris.
\nI only know the man but vague, he’s a movie producer right?
\nI didn’t know he drew…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/td>\n\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Announcement poster
\nfor the exhibition in Paris<\/td>\n		<\/td>\n <\/strong>Tim Burton drawing:
\nEdward Scissorhands<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

I loved the hollow eyed figures so I got out my sketchbook and draw.<\/p>\n

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

It’s just a bit of ‘fooling around’
\nSomething like doodling.
\nKeeping my hands busy.
\nPracticing.
\nHolding on to that Mojo-tail.<\/p>\n

Here are some detail shots:<\/p>\n

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

What do you say,
\nam I on the winning side now?
\nI think so.
\nBut let’s not cheer too early.
\nI’m still floundering on that tail,
\npulling and pulling,
\n‘get back in here!’
\nI might succeed this weekend.
\nKeep your fingers crossed and
\ncome back here after the weekend
\nto see who won.<\/p>\n

Keep on breathing dear ones
\nkeep on breathing…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
