First day of Creativity

Yesterday was my first chance at expressing creativity since beginning the blog. It started with a fried egg on whole wheat toast. Guess that could be considered a creative breakfast. Right? Next creative moment- sewing 3 ripped buttons from my husband's shirt. He could have sworn that he had already buttoned those buttons as he pulled his shirt off. Hmm. Button replacement successful and on to stitching a rip in his red, moose-print, sleep pants. That darn 50's dining table! Not his exact words, of course. Possibly a year beyond the accident, this was certainly a success and loads of time left in the day. Right? That's what would be the case in most households. Not mine. While I was happily sewing and repairing, my creative and ever-efficient husband decided to seal an evidently large space in the crawl space under our kitchen accessible to the frigid outdoor temperatures on one side of the area and by our cats from the basement. Long story short, cats and Great Stuff spray-in insulation don't make the ingredients for a happy creative experience! The next 8 hours at least were spent trimming the product from Samson kitty's fur and feet. An absolute true mess but yet such a creative grooming! Next up? Many hopes for a more happy creative experience in the days to come.

Got To be Creative

2011 is just around the corner and I've realized that I have to work at being creative. You see, I thrive on being creative. Creativity is an outlet for stress and an avenue for future creations. Within this blog, I hope to explore the many ways of being creative while I strive to create somehow some thing at least once a month. In our busy lives, we have to make time for those experiences that help us to grow and make us better persons. So... this is my effort to make life better! If you have creative projects please share them as I share mine in hopes of inspiring others and myself.
