But I have learnt that, you know what! It doesn't just happen as a quirk of fate.
It takes time to be made for it and focus to be placed upon it.
So in a nut shell, this is where I am at presently. Eating nutritionally, growing veggies, walking to school with Finny daily, back at gym to rebuild some long lost muscle, back at yoga to try and bring some mind and body alignment into play, enjoying the mans new roster of weekends off for the first time in years and most recently, I've cut down my commitments at work and changed the way I fit in at Olive Grove.
Its all very new and all a work in progress, but for once I feel in charge of my life and the direction its heading.
Creatively I have been on hiatus. Sort of de-cluttering, clearing out everything at the shop and making space in my head and home for new ventures. Can't say I'm 100% on what they are just yet, I just know I needed to get back to basics and start again for it all to come out just the way I want it to.
So I'll make sure to keep you posted on my progress.
Big thank you to Sister Outlaws and their thought provoking post on why we blog. It reminded me that I enjoy sharing what I do and make with you all.
For a while I felt that all I was doing was bragging or boasting about me, my business and I, which didn't sit well as I'm just not that sort of person.
So getting a reminder that creativity is a process, something we share for gaining clarity in it's explanation or something we share for sharing sake, hoping that someone in our crafty community might be inspired, intrigued or interested in it, is a lovely reminder of all the right reasons to keep up with le' old blog.
Also I gotta keep mum up to date with my life as we are a few states away from each other. Hi Mum.
So from me, I'm doing o.k and I Hope you are all doing well too,
Jay xx

I've been casually looking at the Premier's Better Health Challenge, which is focussed on families being active together: http://www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/bhcv2/bhcsite.nsf/pafcpages/pafc_get_active_2013?open
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you've taken a very realistic and mature look at the way your business works. Can't wait to see the creative results of your new approach!
Aw...I was so pleased to see a post from you Jay! I love that you feel in charge of your life - that does make you happy, in a nut shell. Look forward to seeing your creative ventures!
