I hung on to the next to last idea for a while, but then decided that I provide comfort and stability, but not shelter. Perhaps I'm being more literal than need be, but if my gut says it's not right, then it's not right. So I think I'm back with a sheltered life.
However, I'm having a hard time getting motivated to work on this, or any other project for that matter. But I have little desire to get to work/play. Maybe it's because I tried really hard to keep everything going during our transition time in Germany that I've run out of "oomph" here. I powered through the "Illumination" challenge, which should have been the tough one for me given that most everything was packed up. Our transition is essentially over though and I could theoretically get back to normal. My sewing room is set up enough that I can lay hands on whatever I need. So, I'd think that this would be the easier challenge for me. But it's not. I'm not sure why.
My challenge now is going to be to get through this creative slump and show up on time for the big reveal.
The next reveal date is 1 October. That gives you about three weeks. Easier said than done I know. With all the energy required for moving and nesting, I can quite understand that there is little in reserve for creating. But I am still excited to see what you come up with!
ReplyDeletePlenty of time. Take it easy. It will happen.
ReplyDeleteIf you're like me the organizational side of your brain has been in high gear trying to get moved, and it's difficult to switch over to the creative side when you probably still have details to be taken care of. Maybe just playing in your studio with out a specific goal in mind, or if you have a journal you can go back to for inspiration that would spur you on.
ReplyDeleteI am SO with you on this, Kristin, but I don't have the excuse of moving house. I have ideas, I have sketches... but I can't seem to get moving. I feel like I'm just muddling about, not liking anything and unable to settle. And I really like the theme, too!
