So... I know I JUST posted something...
But I was inspired by Kaelah of little chief honeybee to begin my own 30 day detox!
NOW.... if you know me it may come as a shock to you that I will not be blogging, tweeting or facebooking about anything negative in the next thirty days. Holy crap, right? This is going to be majorly difficult for me. But certain persons have been on my case lately about the amount of whinging coming from my direction. I've been sick though :( I feel I owe it to that individual and myself to take a brighter stance on life for thirty days. Who knows... maybe it will stick?
So when I say negative I basically mean no complaining or anything nasty and cranky. I will give myself some room to be funny but I will try not to laugh at the expense of others as much as I so often do (oops! ;) )
Also, I have been back on weight watchers for a couple of weeks now and doing my points religiously. I actually worked out the other day for forty-five minutes and it felt great. So I should think maybe I will keep that up. Also, a certain party has been pressuring me to start taking iron again and my vitamins. The results with the iron were instant, if my mind isn't deceiving me. I have had 100% more energy everyday since I have been taking them. I've had a reduced appetite and my joints don't feel so achy. I credit my working out with taking iron... it's pretty cool. Now that I'm taking iron I don't have to eat red meat as often too. Red meat has never really sat well with me. It makes me feel hung over or something the day after I eat it and break out. It's just a big mess.
So, I am excited to begin on this journey of exploring positivity. Just in time for summer, too! I will try to keep up with posts and sketches along the way and document the next thirty days. Yay for me!
neener neener got this amazing print from French Paper Co. because I ordered some beautiful paper from them! xD

Narwhals
So I've been working on this narwhal project for info graphics... I've given it an old sea tale kind of look. I'm still glad I picked a narwhal after several weeks of working on it. They're actually really interesting. For example, did you know they are the deepest diving mammal on earth? They also have compressable/ expandable lungs. Their tusks are filled with never endings and are used for locating prey and kind of like a sonar. We still don't know that much about them as they're really secretive and feed very deep in the water of the arctic! Lol... anyways I do tend to get carried away about narwhals. Here's some of what I have worked on:
