Empty Spaces

It's kind of disorienting to work all night. Midnight shift always feels like an alternate universe. After a few days I'm in this strange zone where I can fall asleep in less than two seconds or be wide awake just as fast. 


The other weird thing is that I kind of lose the ability to censor myself - and I wind up with some very interesting journal pages! I decided to finish the project that's been taking up floor space. But I really don't like it anymore and it's nowhere near finished. And I'm also low on patience this week.

So I just called it done. The one flower I had finished went in my journal, along with some writing. My theme was knowing when to quit - and it was one of those moments when you read what you wrote and go "of course! How did I not see that before!!"

(I would totally overshare, but I named names so I decided I'd better use the blur!)




Then I put the background back in the frame and hung it up. It's my reminder that it's ok to have some empty spaces - it leaves room for something good to come in.

  1. Thanks for the heads-up on the ROD sale. I bought it and do not expect to start it until January. Maybe we can do it together - far, far apart. LOL

  2. Lol...I'm actually trying to finish a few projects before I start any new ones, so we might not be that far apart after all!
