Minor change in operations
Just wanted to let everybody know that this blog will now be my mobile blog. The place I can post shorter things while on the go.

Happy Thing: Do A Paint by Numbers
So, maybe I’m an oddball, but I have never tried to do a paint-by-numbers before. I figured I was better than that. But then, this year is all about trying NEW things and being open to surprises. While working on and finishing this dolphin picture I realized this isn’t so much of a *happy* thing… it’s much more a thing to *pass the time*. And my perfectionist self was...

My mind has been so cluttered lately I forgot to actually post a blog about my dad. He passed away this past Thursday. None of us saw it coming, but now, looking through his stuff I believe his mind was failing him for a few months prior. I’ll be on a brief hiatus while I’m reorganizing and rethinking life. My dad was such a great guy and I learned so much from him, I’m even learning more since...

I’m wishing for some good news so I can stop worrying, but it really is taking up so much of my...

Hey everyone! I just noticed that True Life aired yet again on MTV. I’m really excited every time I see new visitors and readers interested in my website and my life.
I’m going through a very difficult time right now with my dad and I’m wondering what to do. Should I keep blogging? Do you want to hear about this part of my life? It’s a struggle and I’m just not sure if anyone is interested.

Hi Joodie. I saw your segment on MTV and found it to be very interesting. I hope your anxiety is more manageable. I also live in Millwaukee (downtown). Just wanted to ask how you are doing since the show.
Since the show I’ve grown a lot emotionally and mentally. I learned so much just by taking such an extremely close look at my own life. The experience itself taught me...
