Its My Birthday !

Journal Entry: Fri Jul 27, 2007, 2:27 AM
It my Birthday today :-)
The last year i can say im in my 40 s , maybe after this year its polite to not ask a woman her age :-)
sreiously though it doesnt bother me, here i am right now surviving on peanut butter and bread lots of cups of tea and very cheap tinned meatballs, in my little room im renting and sleeping too much on a morning because im still not used to this different time zone from when i was living in America,
I really must get a job soon, Im starting to really like my little room in the house im staying in, apart from on a night when i go to bed really early instead of painting because at the moment its so cold in there, cold in July !!!!!!!
I must stop being a wimp, artists are made of stronger stuff than this :-) i must just put another sweater on and paint ,
But today the rain has stopped :-)
Keep making art everyone :-)

Karen! You're a starving artist living in a little garrett! Hehe, or at least that's how I imagine it. It sounds very romantic and painterly... except for the cold -- what is WITH the bloody weather?! It's... argh! It's guiy nippy, as the Scots would say.

Have a very happy birthday -- can we have your address to send your present? Or... should we save it till we see you? (I have NO idea when Leon will be able to get time off. His boss keeps going on about the Canada trip and how 'normal people go away for a week, you know.' Grrr.)
Anyway, it's a shame we couldn't get together for the event :( But I hope you find a way to mark the occasion anyway!

Lots of love from me and Leon! xxx

:party: Happy Birthday Karen! Good luck on finding a job- the first thing is to get your foot in the door -so take what you find- you can always move on to better things- and of course sell a few paintings along the way :D

By the sounds of it you're living like a 19th century romantic poet!! I bet some good inspiration comes from it=)

Karen, at our age (hey, I'm 49 too!), we should be proud of those numbers! And I never, never would have guessed your age from your photos. Obviously you have a young spirit. :D

Hey Karen,
49 is just the beginning...it seems to get better every year for me. Hope your special day was beautiful and you honoured yourself as well as those that created you. Happy days to you always.
