Long Shots

Were you ever in a muddle?

Didn't know how to get from here to there?

Then you met someone, or several someones and they offered to take your hand?
Form will follow function, just give it your best shot. That muddle will make sense to someone. "I can help with that." Sweet words to my ears. You see my plate is full. "Ahh, not a problem. We've seen this all before. Now come on to the party."

Suddenly that long shot doesn't seem so overwhelming. Outsourcing. May be the answer to long shots. Brush...needs more of me. Here's the thing with artists. Because we can see how things are done, we think we must learn how and do them all. We're so smart that sometimes we are stupid that way. Staff? Can't afford it. Assistants? Do I look like I am Jasper Johns? Tech? Have you seen my eyes glaze over when I look at code? Writing? Working on it. Marketing? Shh, secret weapon. How do we juggle all those balls in the air and still keep creating on a larger scale? World domination? No, just my little part of it. Long shot? Yes. Are we going to find out how? You bet. I am making the map right now. Now shh, brush is calling, there's wine to chill and some naughtiness to be found...you too. Get to it...Sometimes we need "naked"( More on that later) naughtiness... Make me smile.

Hi Janice,

Hugs to you too :) Cathryn & our little Viking princess are going to dance, so the Viking princes and I are going to hold the fort.

Then we'll go get mom's flowers at the flower shop for tomorrow.
