Perfectly Human

Trying to understand complex subjects… one failure at a time.

Creative Prompt

Yes, the prompt images have ALL been left “unbranded.” There’s a reason for that choice, which is discussed in a self-led class (that is under construction.) Course Catalog

After today, I’ve scheduled “one” prompt for each afternoon. They should continue for quite a while, unless I crash the blog! 😏😁 Music & Words

Well, hello stranger…

Hi, I’m Tansy. First, thank you for visiting. Here’s a little about my platform. Well… truthfully, it began as one big, messy experiment!

First, came Viking Lighthouse Media. It was built with curiosity alone. Then, Hollowed Happiness. It is where I tried to understand the emotional side of creating. After a few years of making messes, breaking things, rebuilding them, and learning through a lot of trial and error, the name Perfectly Human finally fit. 


The name struck me because I’ve realized something along the way… the learning process is messy and that’s what makes it human.  

Through every redesign, lost idea, and “forgotten” project, I learned something.


Today, Perfectly Human is the foundation for a larger creative structure, built from the same philosophical schematic… small imperfect things make big things possible. 

From that base, three structures were created: 

Music & Words: a free creative community and learning space built around gentle structure, emotional safety, and the joy of making things without the pressure of perfection. 

Malydaar’s Whisper: my artistic voice, expressed through music, story, and sound. 

My Messy Studio: where my fails, drafts, progress, and creative process are shared.

Please, take a look around and make yourself comfortable. Once again, thank you for stopping in. Please excuse the mess!

Take Care,

-Tansy

Oh terrific…

After a few hours of sleep, I woke up to a stomachache and a puking 6-year-old.

Since my schedule is “off”

and I still need to get things done… I decided to go with a daily “flow” or “rhythm” to build new habits (without deadlines). So far, it’s working pretty well. It’s more difficult to forget the stupidly simple tasks I manage to not manage! 😁 Here’s what it looks like: Daily Flow – Checklist

Needs & Wants

She wants to go on a shopping spree at Macy’s. Perfume, pretty dresses, shoes, hand bags, accessories, some oars and a canoe! So she can steer away from the mess of the debt, that lies in her wake. Laundry soap and essentials, she forsake… because in this society, fake money’s all it takes to get…

Woke up and caffeinated early this morning.

I was tired and crashed yesterday (mid-evening 🙃). When I woke today, I panicked thinking I’d missed meetings. But… since my stuff’s now organized… I was able to quickly sift through my inboxes and calendars… and…??? It looks like I didn’t mess anything up! 🤷‍♀️ Now… the day’s planned. 🤞Here goes…………. something? . . .…

As I build, I’m also…

creating more in the background. I’m recording this process too. Organizing… Building… Failing… Looking super dumb… Getting up… Bumping my head… Getting up again… Walking into walls… Getting up again… Organizing… Building… Staying organized… Getting hit by an unexpected life storm… Getting up again… Organizing… Building… Regrouping… Building… Living life… Building… Staying organized… Building… Living…

Old me, wore it with more style. But…

Now it’s worn like a badge of honor. This outfit’s ancient! Both dress and boots made it through my second try at college. I was saving them for graduation but never expected to fit either again. There were many physical setbacks along the way. The largest were losing 100+ pounds and retraining a formerly broken…

Another feature over at Music & Words will be…

My revised and expanded Roll-a-Dice-Advice. I managed to keep plucking away at the project over the past year. 🫣😏 It’s been a long-running tradition for communities that I build or belong to. The collection has grown quite large over the past decade, or so. It’s set up different than times before, to improve functionality. Dice…

So… this is really fun!

Some of my favorite projects (that were left in limbo, but nearly finished) are being posted with class lessons. I WILL FINALLY have a chance and the motivation to complete them. (I’m only putting one at a time up though. I don’t want to over burden myself.) For other class lessons I’m using different stages…
