That is what they say, right? I’ve been having the itchies lately to paint. I haven’t painted in a long time. Unless walls count. I had been held captive in corporate America for the last 12 years and ever since being relieved (as Chris likes to say) from my job last August, I find that now I have the time and energy (sometimes) to do  those creative things that I used to do. Those things that I really loved doing. Like painting. It’s really therapeutic, you know. And the lazy person in me really likes it because I can watch a movie or TV while I do it. It doesn’t  demand the exactness and full attention that something like sewing does. I’m relatively new to sewing. I only really started sewing at the beginning of last Summer (running fabric through Mom’s serger at age 12 has gotta count for something, no?). I really enjoy it, but of course there is a learning curve and I feel like I’m still quite slow at it. Painting, I can do. Painting, I have experience with. Painting, you can’t really screw up. There are no seam-rippers in painting. You just paint over it and call it a day.  I don’t know what I am rambling about. Just happy to be painting again. Even if it’s an elephant balancing balls. I’ve kind of been going crazy for circus animals lately.  I have a vintage circus tray on it’s way to me, that I can’t wait to get. I’ll be sure to show you when it comes. Anyway- I hope you are carving out time to do those things that you’re good at and that bring you joy. It really feels good to be doing this again.
