I have had this blog for over a year but let it sit unused for most of that time. Recently, I became interested in taking it more seriously and am just starting to pick up some momentum. I really want to get to the point of adding one blog entry a day, no matter how small. Unlike most of my resolutions and desires, I think this is pretty practical and do-able.

I've had a commission for a month or so, that I've been procrastinating any progress on. A steel fireplace cover. The guy contacted me because he say the table that I had in the Epic Cafe. Right after doing the bid, for him, Christina and I parted ways again, so I felt like I wasn't going to be able to do it for him. I thought that I actually could do the work but figured that there would now be too many complications that he probably wouldn't want to deal with me anymore. So I emailed him to cancel the job. He wrote back to see if there was any way I'd reconsider. The main obstacle I've been having is transportation. I don't have a car to go get the metal, but I didn't want to have to explain this stuff to him. He has been so patient.

Today, I finally finished the frame for the piece and emailed him to let him know that he could pick it up to see if it would look good in place.We'll see if his patience continues.

Yesterday I caught the bus to the DMV, expecting to start the process of getting my driver's license back. I was amazed when the handed it to me so easily. After 7 years without driving, I walked away from the DMV really feeling "Things are gonna change, I can feel it." So that's one thing I gotta remember, stuff like this fireplace cover will be getting better now.
