I Was Creative!!

Posted by Jenn Greenleaf Nov 10, 2008

Yes, I worked on some random art this weekend. Can you tell I’m excited? It was just some drawings in my art journal, but still. I had some creative time! I was creative!! I created!

It’s not often that I have the house to myself on a weekend and can spend some time doing ME things. Usually I work ALL THE TIME and rarely take some time out for ME. Yes, that’s a no-no . . . I’m well aware of that so please stop wagging your finger at me.

I took about two hours to myself yesterday to nap and to work in my art journal. It was so relaxing and peaceful. Then, of course, I felt completely guilty and started working again. Nonetheless, it’s a start. I need to start carving time out for myself again. Seriously, who works seven days per week?

I have a problem with balancing things out, so I do things everyday – housework, errands, job-related duties, caring for the family, etc. That’s what works best for me most of the time, but did you notice what was missing from that list? Me. I’ll fix that, though. It’s on my to do list.
