So, every once in a while, we fall off the planet of "blogging". 

It seems so trite to say "I have been so busy with... and... and...." 

 ...but in this world of social networking, branding, & internet marketing- 
I am finding that sentence coming out of my mouth more often than...

"because I'm your mother and I said so!!" 
(which I swore I would never say!!!)

 It's amazing to me that so much time can be taken up with planning, 
with lists, and the business part of "a r t ",  in a way that 

I never experienced in all my years as a graphic designer. 

I am reminded every minute that I sit at this computer 
(rather than the easel, or the counter with my decoupage) 
of how the   w o r l d   i s   c h a n g i n g.

I am loving and hating this change all at once.
