How annoying can it be anyway? Do you ever have this problem . . . . . there are just TOO many ideas in my head of things to create and write, and then when I don't have the time to work on all of the "stuff" that's spinning around in my brain, I get really wierd. I mean, stranger than usual. I'm always distracted, trying to figure out if this design will work, and how to make it happen - and then when someone asks me a question, I guess I look at them like I have no clue what they just said. Because I don't. And I am even annoyed when the telephone rings, and I have to stop thinking about what I want to think about and shift gears mentally to think about what the person on the other end of the telephone wants me to think about. I resent that ;o) If I wanted to talk to them, I would have called them!
So, here is a new day, the sun is shining and it is a perfectly perfect spring day here in northern Indiana. Yep, I have a couple of responsibilities today (do kids and husbands fit into this category?), but I'm also looking forward to a day of opportunities to work on what is in my head. The problem? Where should I start? I've got several vintage reconstruction projects started that I really should finish, and I wanted to take some photos to post here and in my Etsy shop of other designs. I get kind of bogged down when I think that I should do THIS, but then I really want to do THAT, and I can't forget to finish up all of THESE projects. OK, I need to focus! Perhaps if I write some of it down, it will clear out the fog in my brain. But it is so scary to actually write all of this stuff out in black and white! You will think I'm kind of wierd . . . . didn't I already say that? So here goes:
1. Finish the vintage reconstruction summer top for the weekly creativity challenge at "Creative Construction: Life and Art." Needs to be finished and submitted by Tuesday night.
2. Take some photos of my vintage "stuff" to put in my OTHER Etsy shop, Gossamer Wings Studio.
3. Gather up bunches and bunches of buttons, beads, ribbons, lace, fabric, and other treasures to list in my Etsy shop as well as to work on one other project this week . . . . embellished cuff bracelets.
4. Perhaps I should also tidy up my studio so I can find all of this stuff!
5. START one new vintage reconstruction garment . . . . maybe a dress this time.
6. Finish at least 5 pages of my eBook on making crazy patch journal covers. 5 pages . . . . I can do this!!!
Well, at least that gets some of the "stuff" out of my brain, but of course there's tons more. Just writing it down makes me feel less wierd. That's progress!
