exhaling...

as i sat on the couch last night, totally potato-ing out, i realized i hadn't sat still since the end of september. at that "aha" moment, i decided that the remainder of this year (okay, that's really only a few days, but it sounds so momentous) i am going to veg-out. that doesn't mean i'll be doing nothing, just not crafting or creating for a few days. sometimes my brain works better when given a breather. a little white space is just what the doctor ordered.

tonight i'm off to the thrift store for 1/2 off clothing. my budget is in an ardent post-christmas slump so of course that means i will find something i definitely must have--vintage apron, embroidered pillow case, vintage 50's dress or funky lamp. actually, i have my fingers crossed that i find a million things that will inspire me in the new year!

the to-do list for the next few days includes things like, "make prediction list for 2006," and "clean out dining room game closet."

Oh man, I sooooo get this. I have been the same way and even scheduled(how pitiful is that!?!?) downtime for this week. Which hasn't really worked of course. Take care and have a wonderful New Years!
