So, it's Monday again.... No craftiness to report yet again; but i got lots of grass mowed on my beastly riding lawn mower! I guess these little gaps in creating things give me time to reflect and absorb the world around me, which can be VERY inspiring! My mind never stops swirling around with thoughts and ideas though... it can be exhausting at times, but i have no idea how to make it stop! If only i can get them out of my head and into reality, it would free up some space. (like deleting old files from your inbox?) I guess that's why I have my lists on all those pieces of paper... it's allows me to make a little bit of space up there!
1. Birthdays: Swirly lollipops.... cupcakes, balloons, presents... twinkly crowns, party hats, tea cups and ribbons and garlands and glitter... and flowers.
2. Halloween: Glowing Pumpkins, goblins and costumes and old fashioned post cards... black cats and witches with brooms and spells and potions and magic mushrooms, cupcakes, and talking rats....
3. The seashore: stripey bathing suits and tiny shells, and sand and buckets and sand castles and little crabs... periwinkles and beach glass.... colorful towels... and rope bracelets...
4. Summer: watermelon, corn on the cob... popsicles, flip flops... painted toe nails... soft summery skirts, good books.... picnics on colorful quilts... fireflies.... lemonade...
5. England: Moggies, and Wellies and lots of sheep, and little red phone booths... boot sales, cuppa teas, and pubs and funny girls...
6. Dogs: in bath tubs... in the water, in a field of daisies, asleep upside down, big dogs and little dogs and in between dogs... dog collars, dog tags... toys and bones....
7. Gardens: fairy tale sheds... bird houses, bird baths, rock piles for the chipmunks, flowers and stone bunny ornaments... foxgloves and fish ponds... sun flowers and clay pots, frogs and birds and spades and snails and wood chucks... and butterflies and honey bees....
There now.... that feels better. :)
How I wish I could delete some "files" from my brain so new things can be "saved" there!!!
ReplyDeleteMental clutter is very hard clean out... I have a vision of poking a big feather duster in one ear and out the other !!! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely lists ... I suppose you spend all your free time on making lists??? Well if it helps you to clear your head ... but I'd love to see it in 3-D ... oh, and I missed the Fairies in here, you know; Gossip Fairy, Cleaning Fairy ...
ReplyDeleteNo. Not ALL my free time... just some, a little bit, that's all...
ReplyDeleteI suppose the ever growing list of Fairies does deserve it's own list. If you ever see the Money Fairy, toss a net over her and hang on tight! :)
