IMN4IT

First off I am ADHD and an insomniac.  I get bored easily and my mind cannot stay idle.  I am a 3rd generation graphic artist.  I grew up watching my grandfather letter signs.  Then I watched him teach my mother.  In turn I learned and it kept me busy as I grew up by us taking art workshops and classes.  Mother taught me how to do calligraphy by hand.  From the vast amount of workshops and classes I took to my mind concocting my own way of doing things I have used that to keep my mind busy.  I have became a chronic hobbyist.  My stores are a way for me to keep my mind from going to those dark places most don't talk about.  I use what money I make to re-reimburse what money we have used from my husband's pension for supplies and equipment I buy to make things.  I take pride in my art or other items being bought.  So I put 98% of what I make after I have made it.  Being  veterans wife I am always looking for something to occupy my mind.  My husband is the same way due to his PTSD.
