I thought I would be looking forward to secret 12 but recently I’m not sure where I want or need to go.
As you can see in my last post called No Oomph
Well I did get my lid cover done and I’m quite please with it. Now I been thinking of casting some mugs and got the molds down which I want to do it in.
But it takes a week for the completion so I can get ready to but them in the kiln. But in mean time I could paint something else but what.
I know planning is great and I at one time made list. Sense I started work I found it hard to do any planning. Or I just don’t know how to.
I work come home and do a few things around here. I’m so thankful sense my hubby is laid off he does the bulk of the home chores around here now.
I still feel like I need to be part of taking care of the place and Murphy will once again go back to tree nursery.
When our boys where in head start they gave us a form how to make out goals and plans and I notice in this secret they have something pretty well the same.
Even part of the head start program they had these preschoolers having a plan book.
I been told if you write a list or a plan out there a higher chance you will complete your goal. Sense I started to work again I haven’t done. Confession time…I haven’t really even tried writing a goal done
I have to say I learn to organize and see the small progress I have made in going toward my goal. No I would like to move at a faster rate but I’m moving
I been slowly moving a long on pillow cases one of the pillow case I got the flowers done and coming along nicely with the other one.
The lid looks wonderful! So much color and detail-- great work! I love the embroidered pillow case you're working on, its lovely. I have an affection for embroidered pillow cases and kitchen towels. I rec'd some lovely ones back when we got married and they are my favorites.
ReplyDeleteI would be lost without my lists! It does help me stay focused, and I get a nice sense of satisfaction seeing things get crossed off. I think list making can be a really useful tool.
Things come in there own time. I've never been a big goal writer, my life never settles into a pattern I can follow! :) Relax into it. Your work seems to be happening at a consistent rate. The lid is just so striking and those delicate pillowcases are lovely.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the weekend!!
Oh, Dora, I just love the lid you made for your dish, it's gorgeous! You are so talented with ceramics and I see that you are also very talented with embroidery as well!! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI don't often make myself a list because even when I do, I forget to look at it! lol Some days I can get a lot done and other days I just drag along. Maybe if I worked, I'd be better organized having a list but since I'm home, it's just easier to do what I have to or feel up to doing:-) xoxo
I abolutely love your lid! So artistic and pretty. And your pillowcases too! You really have talent.
ReplyDeleteI don't make lists. And I'm home all day and still don't get things done. Oh well.
The last two weeks for me have actually been a bit slower for me on the creativity train. I made lists but found I was lucky if I could get one thing done on them. Then all of a sudden, out of the blue, my energy came back! I'm back to my lists and having fun deciding which thing I want to do next.
ReplyDeleteYou may need to be in a resting period right now. Be warned before too long your creativity will burst out and you'll be in YOUR flow.
The lid and the embroidery are fabulous! I love the delicate purple flowers. Keep on moving sister, and thank you for the coffee :)
