Waking kota up this morning was no problem. Tonight he goes to karate. It is so neat to see him so excited!
So I got to thinking last night, always a dangerous thing for me. While I am taking care of the needs of everyone and struggling to work with Kota on his issues, I thought what about me? Once again I have let my own needs and wants fall by the wayside. Whatever happened to me working on creating jewelry? I get so much joy out of that. It takes me to a different world. So today I am going to finally set up my jewelry area in the spare bedroom. We cleaned it out months ago but still my supplies sit in boxes. A gentle reminder that I have placed my own dreams on a shelf. And really, you cannot care for other people when you yourself are lacking for any creative outlet.
I have alot of organizing to do before I can work on jewelry. some of my containers of beads dumped out into the box. What fun that will be, separating all those tiny beads into individual containers. But I cannot wait to start back on the jewelry.
I have some errands to run today and I think I need to pick up some more organizers for beads. I also need to replenish my supply of beads. For that I go online, better prices than going to craft stores around here.
It is very calming for me, creating jewelry designs in my mind and then seeing them come to life. It takes my mind off of any problems or worries.
Wish me luck!
