Catching up

Hello!
It has been a while that I have been here... almost a month.

My in-laws came from far away for a visit. Almost all of my after-work hours for the last four weeks were spent with them. They will leave on Sunday, and there will be more time for art, but I'll miss the laughs, stories, good home meals (and freshly made pastry and cakes) that waited for me almost every day...

The very little time I had for art play - I didn't know what to paint. I lost the flow... But since I really needed to relax, I picked up the brushes and some colors and allowed myself to just enjoy it.

I watched all the Teesha Moore's  videos and couldn't help but make the journal she demo-ed. It's very easy and fun to make. I started filling the pages and then stopped (distracted by another amazing teacher).

I plan to write on these pages. Not quotes, as I usually do, but the real stuff... I miss writing things, really journaling not only my thoughts and dreams, but everyday things too. Like - how my daughter looked when she said that a boy told her that he likes her, or how my son got a certificate that allows him to work and help battered women, or how I can't walk a flight of stairs without getting out of breath and how I should do something about it...
More to come...
