Almost 2 weeks ago, a community post with an idea had 109 comments. Now if you're a community owner, that makes you realize just how F-💣 important this is. This is good because I love this idea! @Fred Tyre started it and SO MANY MORE you love the concept. SO here goes. It's an Art Sharing, Snail Mail Style - exchange. But we have to come up with a title for it. This is open to every member. How it works. - Opt in and provide your mailing address that will not be made public. - Create a piece of art (small card size - details to com). - Mail that art to your assigned fellow dropout. - When your art arrives, you share the photo of it and the story in the community (There will be a special tab for this). Of course, since we are all a bunch of bad ass reprobates (my favorite word btw), we thought we would have some fun with the name. Below are some suggestions: @LM Sharron suggested this: The Artful Accomplice Exchange - Participants become Accomplices - Pairings become Assignments - Mailing day becomes The Drop - Recipients are Creative Co-Conspirators - Arrival photos become Evidence - Finished swaps become Case Closed Here is the original post with lots of brainstorming ideas. https://www.skool.com/painting-for-drawing-dropouts-5983/group-project-art-share-snail-mail-style

This beautiful pair want the territory around our RV. They are fighting their reflections in the tinted windows. I'm going to smear soap on the outside to see if that will work. I can shoo them tapping on the glass but they sure are persistent.

Asking for a friend.

Yes, I'm fully aware someone here is laughing... Okay... now that the twelve-year-olds have finished giggling... 😂 Clear the room... About a month ago, I realized I had stopped creating. I felt stuck, disconnected from my purpose, and honestly wondered where I belonged. So I made myself one simple promise. Show up every day. Nothing huge. Just keep moving, and each day I would quietly say, "Done." One day became a week. A week became two. Before I knew it, I had completely lost track of the count. Then yesterday... 🔥 popped up next to my name in Skool. It took me by surprise. I wasn't expecting it. I was genuinely proud of myself and a self-high-five ensued. Not only am I celebrating that this girl is on 🔥, I'm celebrating keeping a promise to myself. If you've been waiting until you feel motivated, inspired, or "ready," maybe don't. Pick one small thing that matters to you and simply show up, if only for a few minutes. One "Done" may not seem like much. But enough "Dones" can change the way you see yourself. Here's to showing up, one day at a time.

Just came out of the eye doctor. Waiting for my eyes to undilate a little bit. For the first time in I cannot remember how long, I did not have to get new lenses! I have retinas that are kind of spectacular. A new eye doctor always is amazed that I can be corrected to 20/20. And they often call other people in the office to come look at the pictures. Yeah. It's like that. I find it amusing. Thankfully they have been stable for a long time and they still are stable. The one difference is I have the beginning of a cataract. Now normally one wouldn't be excited about that. But they can put corrective lenses in now and I may only have to wear reading glasses then. That would be wonderful. I always ask about the current cost. He said well insurance will pay. I said well I don't have insurance. He said well by then you'll probably be on Medicare. Oh. Yes. I guess I am getting to that age. There's always a silver lining.
