I still can't seem to find the time to make anything. I've had a busy time with a long-time friend whom I haven't seen since 1974 visiting for a while, in addition to making home repairs, getting ready for a big party this next week (H's birthday), family visiting soon after that, then vacation. Whoohoo! We were quite serious about our New Year's resolution of returning to entertaining. Seems there's a trade off that I hadn't thought about.
Today I received a survey request from an online source for inspiration as well as art supplies. The survey asked the usual questions about age, etc. Then there was a looong list of activities to tick off in terms of activities I'd done in the last year. There were a lot of choices, but I didn't have many boxes to tick. Oops. The list was a reminder of all the things I COULD be doing, but haven't. I was able to check off that I've sewn something, quilted something, purchased a bound book, made an ATC (along with something else that's skipping around in the back of my head that I can't recall...) and more that I wish I'd tried. Another goal for the year!
As busy as this week is sure to be, I'm going to try to set aside just a pinch of art time. What to do with so little time and so many choices?!? Maybe just a few short sketches a la Debbie's suggested method, maybe an ATC. In any event, I'll get a little something done. Then it's party time!
