That is usually the hardest step, admitting something is wrong. Love your paintings! You definitely should be doing more of that. You are very talented. It is hard being Mom. I get so mad at my husband who just comes and goes and assumes I will be here for the kids. My kids are really spread out though and I am enjoying baby stepping my 15 year old daughter into babysitting her little 4 year old sister. You do need a life besides being Mom. It is the most rewarding, challenging and lonely job in the world though. You should sell some of your paintings on Etsy. If you ever do, I want a pic of my kids done by you for my new living room!<br /><br />I found you from DIY Showoff. I am so glad that I did. I came here cause I know your pain of having an old house. Ours was built in 1890. Must be that mine is newer than yours. I have a larger living room, 12x15. LOL! Can't wait to see what you have planned coming up!www.thewhitefarmhouse2.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12800942062977705101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3312805607045150693.post-5688194260684339062011-04-09T23:51:27.080-04:002011-04-09T23:51:27.080-04:00Saw you on the DIY showoff, and I thought that I w...Saw you on the DIY showoff, and I thought that I would pop in to poke around. I feel like I wrote this post. Painting was missing from my life up until this last month. I was asked by our church to do a couple of paintings for the new nursery, and I said yes. Ya know, be a nice person. I put it off, and then once I finally got started it was like magic. I was so relaxed that I could finally sleep for once! So turn on some good tunes and PAINT. I paint after the kids are in bed whether I want to or not. Once I get started I'm glad that I did. It will help, I promise.The Domestic Engineerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11744375352409697439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3312805607045150693.post-51437910536436261592011-04-09T22:02:33.745-04:002011-04-09T22:02:33.745-04:00Your artwork is great, very professional looking! ...Your artwork is great, very professional looking!

Your work is beautiful, and I can feel the emotion and passion in your art. It will help you tremendously and it will also help your family. You know the old saying, "If momma ain't happy, then no-body's happy"? <br />Your children will see that mommy takes time for herself to keep up something she loves to do, and that will teach them valuable lessons for life.<br /><br />God Bless and I hope you take the time for yourself and paint again! I look forward to seeing your new works of art. :o)Marjori Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287467525905928036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3312805607045150693.post-42933183350330501152011-04-09T08:56:22.187-04:002011-04-09T08:56:22.187-04:00What a gift you have!

(All us moms need to have something like that that's all us so we can hold onto who we are apart from those little pieces of our hearts running around in the world driving us crazy.) I'm a touch jealous you have such a productive outlet...if I could paint like that I would never buy art again! Sorry you're going through a tough spot, but thanks for being authentic about it.Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16023558434374276903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3312805607045150693.post-63254038516990034862011-04-09T08:42:52.917-04:002011-04-09T08:42:52.917-04:00I love to watercolor.

You should have your hubs watch the kids during the day while you still have energy. I have suffered from Post Tramatic Stress and depression before from an attack I went through. They will kick in and help you. Do not give up and believe your doc when they say do not stop them dead cold. They help but you have to slowly wean yourself off of them or you will get sick. Good luck with your stuggle it will get better. Oh and just in case you did not see it...PAINT AGAIN.=)Alaskangal Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04580494932348054192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3312805607045150693.post-16464527155654403872011-04-08T22:26:32.029-04:002011-04-08T22:26:32.029-04:00Beautiful paintings, Angela!
