Right now I am trying my first ever pin curl set. It's far from perfect but I'm excited to play with it when it dries.
A few weeks back I did a session for an engraving relief artist friend James Ehlers. I call it Sitting Hillbilly. Which is the theme, but the finished engraving print will entail a whole scene. Photography & editing by SDG/Between Mirrors Hair & makeup myself.

A bunch of small things and big things are happening all at once, some good mostly not. But one of which is that while I was flossing my entire root canal came out. Crown cement and all, thankfully I'm not suffering from it in much pain. Been to a few dentists seeing another this Friday.

I'm pretty much a tomboy when it comes to girl things like.. doing your hair and makeup and stuffs. When you see me in general I am only wearing mascara. I used to be alot more active than I am now and I think I've hit that lazy comfy period and I haven't been feeling good about myself for a while. Especially lately, I can be a real bitch to myself. So I'm making bits of effort to try and be put together more often and learn some techniques that have always frustrated me in the past.

I dont know what happened but some how what little bits of confidence I had in myself I lost and I stopped crafting stopped modeling, started crawling inside a shell of a fear of everything. How does it go? Step 1 of the problem is admitting that there is a problem. Yeah, well I'm ready for step 2.

Regarding the second part of the blog. i know what you mean. Just over a year ago I started having panic attacks. In hindsight, these anxiety problems had been slowly and quietly building beneath the surface for years, just waiting for me to get enough out of my comfort zone.
It's better now, but for awhile there it was really rough. It was a major exercise in self control and in acting how I wanted to act, instead of behaving the way I felt. The thing is, after some time, you feel how you act. In a way these panic attacks were a good thing, because they forced me to do some serious soul searching and to become the person I wanted to be. To man, up basically.
You seem like a tough lady, just keep busy, do things that make you happy, hang around people that inspire you and always try to be the person you want to be. I'm sure you'll be fine.
