David fell at school today and busted his lip. Poor little boy.
Tell your blog readers about someone who has been a creative
influence in your life — a crafty mum, aunt or grandparent, an
influential school teacher or a friend who brought out your creative
side, perhaps.
Wow this one is actually a loaded question for me funny enough. My mom
is an amazingly talented person. She is a true artist in my mind but
she’s never been an artist by profession. She was an art restorer for a
long time and then a jewelry designer and now she’s an interior
decorator. But instead of it all inspiring me, it’s always intimidated
me. I always knew I just didn’t have whatever gene it was that you
needed. I’ve always craved being artistic. I’ve always wished I was
naturally talented at it. But oh well, I am good with computers…..
1. Fun Video chat with Lori!!
2. To-do lists. Love them.
3. Randy’s Time Management lecture. Tho I don’t think I can throw out my
TV.
4. Jake. I love Jake.
Video games, oh no!!
This is my layout for this week’s catalyst
twenty at creative therapy: how do you feel about your name?
Journaling Reads:
Yes, Karen is an ordinary name but when you remember that I was born and
raised in Istanbul, Turkey, doesn’t it seem so much less ordinary? I
love my name cause, in my own way, I feel like my parents must have
known that I was going to end up needing a nice, American name so I love
my name to bits.
1. Breakfast and fun time with Jess, Christopher, and Beckett. Good
friends are rare.
2. David napping in his big boy bed.
3. Quiet time with a good book.
4. Jake and me, so wonderful, even this many years later.
5. Going to see Mamma Mia!
6. Finishing the good book. (Everyone Else’s Girl)
7. Feeling a sense of calm and peace, especially on a Sunday night.
Most days, oh who I am I kidding, every day I wonder how I got so
lucky.
This is for Shimelle’s Freedom class. This week was about Serious vs
Fun. Work vs Play. The funny thing is that I noticed I make long to-do
lists for both work and play. I make sure all my moments are listed.
Which made me ponder which one is which. Do I ever let myself play? With
no lists? This one went way off course but it was a really useful one
for my soul.
This is an art journal page. It was inspired by a challenge at Have More
Fun. I am loving the crazy directions this class is taking me.
