Over 2 years has passed and I'm finally getting back to this blog.
So much has happened in that time span, I will only share some of it...
In 2014-2015 I partnered with Marc Anthony and The Green Palette and we did some creative and artistic work together.

I've since moved on to full-time work for Artistic Tile in White Plains, NY. They are a specialty tile company and my love of design and my artistic bent serve me well in this career. I've been working there since September 2015 and enjoy helping people bring art and beauty into their homes.
Also, I separated from my husband last year and moved to NJ with my two children. I'm now divorced and we're all doing the best we can to keep things as positive as possible for the kids. Summer break has been different for the kids since I'm working full time. This year they went to summer day camp and had a sitter pick them up and watch them until I got home. Our complex has a pool so the kids have spent a lot of time in and out of the pool, and enjoying the trips to the beach with their dad. I was able to take an extra day off and take them to Wildwood this summer. Unfortunately, the day we were there a lot of jelly fish were in the water and made everyone itchy. But we spent a lot of time walking the boardwalk and playing in the arcades instead.
Now, near the close of the summer, they're both at overnight camp at Frost Valley YMCA. My girl loves horses, so I put her in the special camp, Mustang Village, where she gets to ride every day and care for her horse.
My son, not so interested in horses, is in the regular camp with boys his own age and plenty of fun activities to keep him busy for two weeks. Although I miss them, I know this is a very special time for them and I hope to see even small changes in them when they return.
