I get a lot done in a day. In a week. A month. Any given span of time. But it seems like certain things on my to-do list always get pushed to the backburner. A good manicure. A long hot bath. Blogging. Exercising with any regularity. Making dreaded phone calls. Putting together design submissions.
I don’t why I don’t do these things. They have good benefits. It would be nice to not be biting my cuticles all the live long day. It would be nice to get back to running eventually. And the phone calls do accomplish things. And design submissions lead to contracts for work which leads to money.
And the blogging? Well the blogging is just kind of my mark on the world. I honestly wonder if folks just scroll through to look at the pictures. Hmmmm… maybe I should add a pretty picture.
Isn’t she beautiful? She’s the handiwork of one of the crafters that showed this weekend at the Winter Wonder Sale & Festival. Reflections Now is the name of the company, but sadly they don’t have an online presence. I encouraged them to look into etsy though. His stuff is just gorgeous!
And now I think I will take that bath!
It’s not just about the pictures. Isn’t it funny how we put things off like long hot baths? I hope you enjoyed yours!
I hear you on the blogging. I keep meaning to do it, I enjoy it when I do it, and yet…
WE enjoy the blogging!! (although your pictures are always entertaining and quite professional-looking.) You are a gifted writer and craft an interesting blog. i look forward to them. So, enjoy the bath, get the manicure, but don’t pro-cras-ti-nate the blog!! Also, don’t forget to enjoy the young men. they will grow up way to soon.
She is stunning! If he comes to etsy, please let us know. I would love to have a pretty angel like that.
The stuff you’re putting off seems to fall into two categories: stressful and just-for-you. If you do more of the just-for-you stuff, you’ll be calm and rested enough to tackle some of the stressful stuff. This doesn’t mean you’ll suddenly enjoy unpleasant phone calls, but at least you’ll have the energy to pick up the phone and stick it out.
