at a loss...somewhat

Macro challenge day 15 (I'm so woefully behind)
I'm feeling a slight lack of direction here on my little bloggy-o. I have not had any time and little desire to sew. I've tried without success to get that pink bird project finished and I'm just not sure what to talk about here! It's strange--I have maybe only once or twice in all of my blogging days felt this way and it left rather quickly. This time...um...not so quick. I do foresee an extended blogging break--maybe starting in summer, not sure (although I'm pretty positive I will keep my photo journal going) Noah has a little project that he is very excited about sharing so there's that to post about and I have NOT given up on the pink bird project--although no promises on when that will happen. I've already taken note that I'm not good a keeping those here, ahem. So, I guess I'm asking you to please bear with me through this. I'm not sure I can keep up right now.
Instead of something crafty today, I'm offering some laughs. I hope these make your stomach hurt as much as they did mine!


The first one was funny, but the second one was HYSTERICAL!!! I'm still laughing over it! ;-Þ

its so hard sometimes to go with what our gut is telling us. you'll find your right way in all of this.

I'm sorry that you feel that way. I love your blog and the way you show your world through the blog.
A blogholiday isn't such a bad idea, although I'm going to miss you. Perhaps it will help you to just read your blog through yourself, see what you like the best in your own blog, what craft/art that makes you happy. Sometimes we tend to search for inspiration outside ourselves but you truly should search within oneself. I would imagine that the biggest source for inspiration for you IS YOURSELF!
Perhaps you have to much around you to being able to focus on YOU right now?
Just some thoughts from Sweden.
Love Bea

Oh, no(sigh). I'll miss hearing what you have to say, and seeing what you have to show. I hope you'll return to it soon! Take care and enjoy your time away!!!

Blogging does seem like a lot of work sometimes...all I can say is thank goodness for the camera...you can always express yourself visually without requiring too many words :)

I think some times it's needful to take a break from blogging. Helps keep yourself centered and connected to your everyday life as it should be. When you come back your be refreshed and ready to share. I just took a few month break myself that was so needed. Enjoy to time away.

I'll miss you and seeing all the beautiful things you make!! Yours is one of my very favorite blogs. I don't have a blog, but I can imagine it must take a lot of time and energy, so I understand your need for a break. So rest and recharge, enjoy it, and come back when you're ready--hopefully soon. I'll be watching for you :)
