Water Leak and Racoon Challenges

By Julia on Thursday, May 22nd, 2014 | No Comments

On Saturday, when the Festival applications were dropped off, I also had to redo the Excel a bit for the jurying of the images. I realized we had way fewer applications than in the past. Not even enough to fill the park! This was a very stressful realization. At least when we looked at the […]

And the Challenges Just Keep Coming

By Julia on Thursday, May 22nd, 2014 | No Comments

Can’t believe I haven’t posted since the 13th of May! My hiking friend and I had discussed doing a hike and then going to the hot springs on Wednesday, but that didn’t’ happen. I wasn’t ready to expose the rash on my leg to water shared by lots of people and neither of us sounded […]

A Blue Heron Made My Day Tolerable By Adding Unexpected Beauty

By Julia on Tuesday, May 13th, 2014 | No Comments

This has been a very challenging day. First, my Healing Circle actually got me a bit angry rather than taking a step towards healing. She spoke of a way of seeing the World in a way I find very difficult to embrace. And it just doesn’t resonate with me at all. So I won’t be […]

Mother Nature’s Snow on Mother’s Day in Colorado

By Julia on Monday, May 12th, 2014 | No Comments

Last year we had a snowstorm on May Day. This year it was a bit later on Mother’s Day. The day started out grey and then some big fat flakes began to fall. As the day wore on everything was covered in a wet blanket of snow. Sort of throwing a “wet blanket” on many […]

Weather and Health Challenges Have Put Me In A Funk

By Julia on Saturday, May 10th, 2014 | No Comments

Since returning from the Creative Industries Summit in Salida, I have been dealing with some challenges. My body has not felt very good the last week or more. Exhaustion was the first challenge. Then I realized I was experiencing neck pain like I hadn’t felt in years. I determined my head was off its axis […]

FantaFaces Mask Shipping Saga Continued

By Julia on Thursday, May 8th, 2014 | No Comments

After the Creative Industries Summit, I came home feeling totally exhausted. I know I have been handling more things than my norm, and I haven’t gotten the down time from the Art Festival that usually happens in the winter months, so I guess it should have been anticipated that I would wear out one of […]

Commonwheel Art Festival Marketing and Beer Garden Meetings

By Julia on Wednesday, May 7th, 2014 | No Comments

After my birthday weekend, I had lots of meetings before heading off to Salida for the Creative Industries Summit. Monday, April 28, I met with Rocky Mountain Highway coordinator for the Beer Garden at Trinity Brewery on Garden of the Gods. He had a meeting there and I had a meeting near there shortly after […]

Creative Industries Summit in Salida Colorado

By Julia on Tuesday, May 6th, 2014 | No Comments

On Wednesday, April 30, I was getting ready to go to the Creative Industries Summit in Salida, Colorado when I saw an email from Etsy. A woman in Portland, Oregon needed a FantaFaces mask by Friday for a Gala Event. I sent a message back saying I knew it would cost at least $20 to […]

Celebrations with Green Drinks, a Ruby and of a Birthday

By Julia on Sunday, April 27th, 2014 | No Comments

I had some good times with friends this week and took some photos of flowers and a ruby practicing with my “macro” skills. A community member had given me a rough cut ruby to celebrate our Ruby anniversary. I had some fun photographing it on Tuesday. I had picked up a rusty bottle cap walking […]

Hiking Ute Trail and a Long Day at Commonwheel Gallery in Manitou Springs

By Julia on Sunday, April 27th, 2014 | No Comments

Woke up feeling a bit achy the Monday morning. After yesterday’s gardening adventure, the muscles in my upper legs and butt were a bit sore. Though not too painful, just a good reminder that I need to exercise is ways other than hiking to keep all parts of my body in better shape. I worked […]
