Birthday!

This past weekend has been very busy. We celebrated my boyfriends birthday with family and friends all weekend long.

I even made my first cake! It's three layers of yellow cake with a chocolate frosting. I have to say it was very delicious!
Proof that there are three layers hidden inside...
I have some major changes going on in my life right now. By the end of the week I will no longer be a waitress but I will be slinging coffee at a certain bookstore/coffee shop. I'm very excited! This is the first year I will not be returning to a school schedule in the fall. I'm really feeling sad about it as I see stores get their back-to-school sections and students start moving back to town. I'm hoping this new job will fill my days and give me plenty of hours to work in the studio. It's really been on the back burning these past couple of weeks but now I'm ready to get back in there and make some art!
How do you cope with balancing art and work?
