I have always been a creative person. I often lovingly remind the Hubs.....
"this is what you signed up for, you knew what you were getting when you married me"
When I came across this saying today I thought it 100% fit!
Being creative is incredibly fun and gratifying but also can be a bit overwhelming for others. I am hard to carry a conversation with because I think of something and I jump topics then remember what I was saying and jump back (maybe an hour or so later). I am a free spirit who loves to try new things. This is one of the things that the Hubs loves most about me AND DRIVES HIM CRAZY!!!! Not that I blame him. At times I have to be a blast and other times I cause stress because I didn't always think things through before I begin or I didn't plan my time the best. I get wild ideas while sitting on the couch in the evening next to him, he is ready to head to bed while I am coming up with ideas for a new project. For instance When I painted our entry....
I was getting new carpet for our living room the following week so I was peaking under our old carpet. We never had an entry so when I pulled up the carpet and found we had a few feet of GROSS wood floor in front of the door my mid started spinning with ideas. So the next day while the Hubs was at work I painted the floor. You can read more about the floor here.
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and gearing up for a FABULOUS New Year!!!
Are you setting New Years Resolutions/Goals?
Oh my gosh! That fits me too. Our poor hubs.
ReplyDeleteI love love love it! I wish I was creative and artsy but I don't have one ounce in my body that way. I love your space and I cant wait to see more of your house because I know it is amaze!
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way but with my photography. I'm always looking for new gear or thinking of new locations. I wish I had more knack for home decor but I do love seeing your ideas!
ReplyDeleteYES! I so relate to this poster...our home at the moment is in the 'we've been robbed' state of creative frenzy! My brain was over- stimulated during the holiday and well....I've been creating up a storm! :)
ReplyDeleteI am going to have us all set some 2014 goals on New Years day. And one or two goals for the family to accomplish.

ReplyDeleteHaha! So true!
ReplyDeleteIn fact, I read this to my husband and he said, "...what you need is a craft room OR a bigger house to contain you..." Contain me?! LOL.
