Sometimes by the time Friday afternoon rolls around, I am so spent from the week’s activities, I just want to do SOMETHING creative or crafty just to let my spirit know that there’s more to life than the busyness that seems to gobble me up.
A couple of Fridays ago, I finally opened up a Stampin’ Up order that has been sitting on the table for over two weeks. It was almost time to go and pick up Leah from gymnastics and I so wanted to play. I only had 35 minutes available so, I set the timer on my iPhone and went to work using my new toys (watercolor crayons and a new stamp set) and pulled out some old ones too (chalk from 10 years ago and watercolors just as old, that I have never used!).
I managed to get the foundation of four greeting cards done and felt like I’d conquered a bit of the busyness that had consumed me all week. What are some ways you try to gain back control when the busyness of life takes hold?
please stop by my blog..YOU HAVE WON AND AWARD FROM ME!!!
