When I got home yesterday evening I found an email in my inbox from Terry Nantier, the president of NBM and the person who hired me on the Hardy Boys job in the first place. It was a sweatdrop letter asking where I am in the schedule. After a few moments of panic at being contacted by the PRESIDENT (and using some DBT skills to ride out the emotion and tolerate the distress without flipping into a full-out anxiety attack), I decided to get a good night's sleep and tackle the job with a fresh mind and eye today. I used the witches' ladder I'd created and cleansed earlier in the afternoon to do 40 repetitions of my usual two affirmations before going to sleep, and indeed had a very quiet and refreshing night's rest.
So -- up at 7:45 am, and a letter sent to Terry assuring him that I'm working hard and letting him know where I am in terms of processing the pages. Now I'm back at laying flats and painting backgrounds; hopefully I'll catch up to Daniel's art later today, and can start doing finished pages tomorrow.
The candle is lit on the studio altar before the image of the Goddess, with a prayer asking for creativity and energy as I work through the day.
A good cup of coffee doesn't hurt, either.
Okay, and a few quizzes... damn you,

| You're a LiveJournal Junkie! |
![]() Well, maybe you don't live or die for LiveJournal, but it's what gets you up in the morning. Guilty of reloading your friends page over and over throughout the day? Thought so. Quick, get some fresh air - before you become a full fledged addict! |
| Your Brain's Pattern |
![]() Your mind is a creative hotbed of artistic talent. You're always making pictures in your mind, especially when you're bored. You are easily inspired to think colorful, interesting thoughts. And although it may be hard to express these thoughts, it won't always be. |
| You are Agonistic |
![]() You're not sure if God exists, and you don't care. For you, there's no true way to figure out the divine. You rather focus on what you can control - your own life. And you tend to resent when others "sell" religion to you. |
| You Are 27 Years Old |
![]() Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax. |
