Self diagnosis, we've all done it. I think I've narrowed it down to being Artistically Bipolar or Creative ADD. What's with this crazy up/down, up/down? I have so many ideas swimming in my head right now, so many half way there projects, that I seem to get so overwhelmed and then stop doing everything. No, I'm not depressed and no, I'm not so crazy busy that I just can't handle it all! Wish!
I just can't seem to focus and I've never had this problem before. So, what to do? I have neglected this blog for much too long so I guess I will just post what's on my mind and what's going on just to get back in the swing of things.
I am happy to say that I am published in the current issue of Somerset Studio...Four wonderful pages. I will be doing a class at Stamp Your Heart Out in Claremont on Nov. 28. We will be making these cute little girlfriend gifts in the magazine.
I will also be in Artists Cafe issue to be out Dec.1....so blessed with that one because it came as a nice suprise to be paid a second time for something that was published 2 years ago! This was my very first article for Somerset Studio and it means so much to me to revisit it. This weekend I will have a booth at a show called Tell Me Bout the Good Ol Days in Redlands in a great house in the historic district. It should be lots of fun. And very happy to report I have my tickets for a retreat in Key Largo that I'll be teaching at in March. Such a wonderful group of women who have just welcomed me into their creative world. I can't wait! See how scattered this is?! But I felt like I could put off this blog forever if I didn't do something now! So there it is...until next time. I hope to be more focused then@ Haha now why would I put that there instead of a period? Focus!
Julie I am sooo happy for you,
ReplyDeleteI love this post, it's so positive.
It must be tough to focus when you are on such a creative high !
{ and in so many different directions }
The cute little girlfriend gifts are just AdOrAbLE
perfect stocking stuffers, or holiday ornaments.
Now I can't wait to get my hands on the latest Somerset Studio
and Artists Cafe to read your articles.
Congrats on everything!!!
Congrats sweet Julie!
ReplyDeleteI am sooo scattered too lately.
Must be something we ate Friday night...LOL.
Love you and can't wait to spend time with you this weekend at the show!
XO,

I get that way too - it frustrates me because I think of so many things to get done and then fritter away my time doing a whole lot of nothing! I'm trying to just "go" with it and take extra advantage of the times when I'm very productive.
