Milk Tea, Music and My Life in General

Hello wonderful people! I've been up to very little lately as the LunaMusings household approaches our normal again. My mom is back to work now, but very tired when she comes home so I've been trying to do more of her dishes during the day in addition to all the stuff I try(and often fail) to do in a given day. Thanks for the all prayers/thoughts/good vibes! She's even making lunch today!

And as a small note on other things consumable, the combination of green tea brewed with lemon verbena leaves and added to milk is a lovely thing after you've woken up from a weird night of sleep. And by weird I mean having this stuck in your head so badly it plays in your dreams:

Yeah...it really messes with normal sleep patterns...

At the moment I'm currently downloading all our our music collection from my hubby's compy to mine. 837 out of 13409...it's going to be awhile...

As for the rest of my life, I'm having a crisis of projects. I'm trying to figure out how to balance working on my artwork, soaking and sprouting grains, cooking everyday, making sure the kitchen doesn't explode, working out every weekday, trying to research better eating habits (throw out the fat free, racid oil and processed crap, bring on the full-fat dairy, bone broths and quality produce!), and figuring out how to do all that on a budget. I think I need 72-hour days. I think I'll get this eventually, but in the meantime, I could use some of those prayers/thoughts/goodvibes...

The Courtship of Big Macintosh and Fluttershy

As promised, here is the picture series.

Welcome to My Head

That's probably the most ominous beginning I've ever done for a blog. Of course, once you get to know me, it will seem pretty normal.
    
Anyway, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Rachel, though I'm also known as LunaMusings, Ookaminokage and She Who Must Be Obeyed. Okay, not really on that last one but a girl can dream. I'm married to a fantastic and insanely hilarious man named James. We do not have children yet. Emphasis on yet.
   
I am a comic artist, writer, cook, knitter, sewer and just about anything else I want to be. I simply love making things, tangible, edible and intangible. I suffer from no lack of inspiration. In fact, I have too many ideas. And that's why I'm here. I want to reach out to others like myself who have that same problem, the opposite problem, or someone who just needs a nudge in the right creative direction. I hope to share ideas that will inspire new projects for all who read my posts.

I hope that my brainstorms, sudden inspirations and even my "cranial drizzle" can be of use to you all out there in the great unknown of the internet. I hope to be posting every Friday or Saturday until January, when I'll finally have constant internet access. My posts will be varied, from recipes I've tried or made up, to sketches of characters, to the Christmas present marathon I will be embarking on called "Project Sock Critters". There will be much more and I hope to also include spotlights on other peoples' work in the posts to come as well.

I hope you'll take this journey with me. Thanks!
