Daily Diary – August 22 2011

Today was mostly about work work work. The kids played on their own while I just did a lot of work.

Nathaniel decided to skip his nap so he was unpredictably happy and cranky all day. He’s eating nuts here while tears are still in his eyes.

David decided to take a nap and Nathaniel lay right next to him.

it was seconds before they started laughing like mad.

Nathaniel laughed long after David was done.

and kept going.

I am feeling tired and a bit overwhelmed today. Mostly cause I have so much work. It’ll all work out, of course. I am sorry I’m behind on comment responses, I’ll get on it asap.

Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful for a sweet interview at artsee blogs.
2. I am grateful for some art time tonight. I need it.
3. I am grateful that my kids are kind enough to play on their own when I need to really focus at work.

Three Things David’s Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that I watched an episode of Jake and the Neverland Pirates* {his pick for the journal}
2. I am grateful that I played with my legos.
3. I am grateful that I laughed with Nathaniel.

  • Karen, do you find that it’s difficult to switch gears between scrapping and art journaling and painting and photography and blogging (not even mentioning work and family)? I’m finding I can embrace one while the others take a back seat. I always wonder how others handle the multiple creative interests.

      i do! only because i like to do it and when i am doing it, i don’t want tos stop. but then i make myself stop and get up and start the other task and it always ends up sucking me in 🙂
