I am me, just me, one person, sometimes I forget
Last week I vacationed at the beach for two days , stopped at home for a day to repack, traveled to Philly to do a
presentation at the Philadelphia
Museum of art, arrived
home, repacked and headed to Wilmington De, for a craft show. My husband and
arrived home to a living room full of stuff, full of my stuff… but we were
leaving for Puerto Rico in three days, so it was going to have to wait.
While driving home from Wilmington , I sat and wrote a hefty to do
list… if one saw it they would have thought it was to be accomplished in three
weeks, not three days.
Here’s a taste: ( and yes, I wrote blog post and scheduled them to post while I'm traveling)
-
unpack from last three trips
-
visit with two of my friends
-
weave 4 new scarves ( this in and of itself is 2 solid
days at the least)
-
photograph and blog about new work
-
write newsletter
-
update mailing list
-
go to the library
-
work out
-
make scarf how to videos
-
respond to emails
-
clean the house
And it went on from there. Sometimes I swear I must think
that I’m super women when I make these lists. I’m proud to say that I did get
most things checked off of the list. And I need to be okay with the things that
didn’t get checked off. I have to learn and admit that my brain never stops.
There are always new ideas, my head is exhausting.
What I understand
-
I have a lot of ideas and ambitions, that’s great, but
I need to let myself off the hook sometimes.
-
Sometimes I need to ask for help
-
Make that a lot of times I need to ask for help
-
I must accept that because of my nature I will never
awake to a day where everything is crossed off the list
-
Embrace the fact that there is so much that I wish to
do in life that I can never do it all
-
Be thankful for inspiration
-
Be thankful that I’m never bored
Overall BE THANKFUL
