Cha-cha-cha-cha-changes

I have, characteristically and once again, been absent for almost a year. In which many changes have happened. Of which the main one is, I now live in Montana. Here is a good summary, by way of my website:

A recent college graduate with a BFA in studio art, C.Hanlon decided to quit her job, pack up everything she owns, including her husband and cat, and move from Los Angeles to small-town Montana. Biding her time before Graduate school, she is looking for a day job and making art as a defense mechanism, specializing in fiber based sculptures and general enigmatic reclusion.

Except that I haven't been making much art lately, and am not really looking for a day job anymore as I have fairly recently taken up freelance writing as my new profession. Small town life suits us well, and we are certainly enjoying our beautiful surroundings. Winter has been long but bearable, and we survived without any adverse side affects -- contrary to popular opinion and forecast. Spring is filtering in now, and our days alternate between beautiful and cloudless, and rainy and overcast. Today, unfortunately, is the latter, and the rest of the week promises to be so as well.

We have added a new cat to our little family. She goes by Mrs. B (inspired by Beatrice Potter), as she tends toward a stocky, British demeanor. Fhloston Paradise is still with us, and resents her new housemate less and less these days. I rejoice in their daily accomplishments.


Here they dare to touch paws.
