POOR LITTLE BLOG


I have just not been posting!
Poor Little Blog - Very Neglected!
I just feel so overwhelmed these days,
just not getting anything done!
There is so much whirling around
in my BIG FAT HEAD.

Projects that have
been sitting forever-calling out ...
FINISH ME, FINISH ME!!
And, not to mention all the new stuff
that's waiting to be worked on.

I just can't seem to find myself.
I knit!
I crochet!
I quilt!
I embroider!
I do mixed media art!
I'm trying to learn to sketch!
Oh, and I take a bazillion on-line classes
because I want to know everything
about everything!

I cannot focus on just one thing!
Therefore, nothing gets done!
 And ....all those new things swirling
in my BIG FAT HEAD ...
NOT GETTING DONE EITHER!

My DH says I over think, says I just
need to devote my time to one thing!
WHAT???? I just can't do that!
But, then again ...I'm not getting anything done
doing it my way!

Another bad habit  ...
always comparing myself to others. 
VERY BAD HABIT!  

Once you compare
you get very discouraged in your own ability to create!

I've even contemplated just getting
rid of everything in my work studio.
Perhaps turning it into a cozy library;
just to clear my head ...
but wait; 
I can't do that because there is
a lot of money sitting in that room!!

What is one to do when everything is just
swirling and nothing is getting done??

  1. Hi Alice! I know what you mean. I get overwhelmed just on my scrapbooking, so I try not to let myself branch out my on other crafts, just a couple a year. It's just so fulfilling to make something yourself that it's (usually) worth it.

    Please try not to compare yourself to others. It's tempting as you can always find someone who does more out in blogland, but you are amazing! You are the one many others are comparing themselves to!

    Take care,
