Splotch monsters and pumpkin mocha - Friday craft club

Life is crazy around here. Too much stress at school, preparations for the in laws visit in two days, all the things going on with my grandpa, my mom not being here (need to make sure my dad has something to eat and someone to talk to), just life being life. So not much crafting going on around here.
I have this rule to not get all Christmasy until after Thanksgiving. But in my head I can't help but think about all the little decorations I want to make and all the holiday sweets I want to bake.
Overall I'm just too tiered to do anything, I come home and collapse. Many times I don't even remember how I fell asleep across the bed. But I guess this is what you have to go through to have anything worthy in life.
I was lucky yesterday to find time for our Friday crafts club. We had pumpkin mocha and drew "splotch monsters, an idea Mila got from a very creative artist Steve Loya. This was my first try at watercolor media. Sonya gave me these paints as a prize a while back. It was a fun night! I wish I could write more about what I am thinking or cooking or doing, but I feel numb and too busy to even have any feelings to write about. Soon it will be over, and I will go back to my creative self...
P.S. I wish I had snapped picture of Mila's creation, it was truly monstrous and cute.
