my anonymous commenter keeps telling me that i should just let it be and let the creativity come when it comes
makes perfect sense.
been running around all morning doing cleaning in case kim and bruce come for a visit. i feel much better about the way the house looks now. burt is rearranging the garage so that we can clean out our storage spaces and save some money per month to pay for bills etc.
i have made it thru a bunch of my paper work, and i am loading cd's into the itunes on my old computer.
i feel very accomplished and it is only 1:30.
the commenter also mentions that creativity comes in cooking too.
i have been more interested in cooking these days
it is all about the ingredients
i have not had much of anything on hand the last few weeks and we have been going out to eat alot because it was more convenient.
but with real food around i have made a few tasty things lately.

i still have not painted and still dont feel like it either.
maybe soon

Creativity and art is many things to many people but it is also the expression of the materials, how you give them voice. Many times I have walked into an "empty" kitchen and found nothing to make for dinner, until I list the ingredients that I find. By pulling some of this with some of that you can build some wonderful meals. It is about the ingredient but also about the chemistry.

What other materials do you have around that could be transformed into an expression of art? Ah ha, that leftover glass, what could you do with that? I have a friend who on an inspiration, collected egg shells and started painting them and gluing pieces in unusual ways.

I sense through your cleaning and organizing you are freeing up space, not just physical but mental and emotional. It will be fun to see what you begin to let into that space.
