To Wellness and the Creative mind

Mom, Artist, Health Coach, daughter, sister and a wife.We all wear many hats during the day. How do we maintain balance? How do we not lose sight of what is important and real? We can help each other answer these questions by sharing what we have learned along the way.
Here I am going to share my thoughts and experiences with how we treat our bodies and the effects it has on how we think and feel.

Floors done, Wall not.


The quandary of the unfinished project...I would like to claim that I have so many ideas that I have to keep moving forward and start new projects but perhaps I am avoiding completion. When something is "finished" it is ready for criticism. If you see a painting before it is done or eat cookie dough when it is simply eggs and sugar, you are not getting the whole story, it can't be judged.
So this attempt at a blog post is the perfect example of what I am trying to discuss...I started it a week ago and then stopped after the first few sentences. Why? Maybe one of the dogs needed to go outside. Maybe my boys were fighting over who is the rightful owner of a Lego guy. Right now my breakfast is sitting half eaten on the kitchen counter because I remembered that I never put the load of jeans in the dryer...which brought my thoughts back to an unfinished Blob Post. So the cycle continues, my life keeps getting in the way. I am going to go finish my breakfast and coffee and then, as I say to my kids, I will be back in "just a minute".
I am back, it was three minutes, but here is my issue. I have a laundry list of unfinished tasks and projects in my house and in my studio. I continually add to the list at a much faster rate then I cross things off. For year I blame having babies in the house but now my kids are at school from 8-3 and gone every other weekend so now I can only blame myself? Yes, things come up and I have other responsibilities that bump my fun stuff to the side but what is the difficulty in being done?
I have to go walk the dogs...
