Do you find it hard to admit that you have shifted gears? I do. My own expectations are often the thing that locks me in—my own thoughts of what I should be doing while fully admitting that I don’t want to do “that” (whatever it is…) any more. Yep, I do that.
It just takes one look at what I AM doing to see the shift, but it takes me a whole lotta time and mulling to give myself permission to feel good about it.
From “Thinking out loud” to “I Make Stuff”
A lot has changed.
I no longer make quilts, but I make a lot of stuff. Other stuff. So this blog is going to be a chronicle of making stuff. Stuff stuff stuff!
I knit.
I bake.
I photograph.
I reorganise.
I think.
Then I make more stuff.
Socks.
Bread.
Dinner.
Blankets.
Mittens.
Sweaters.
Messes.
Connections.
Connections of stuff.
Connections of thought.
Connections with folks.
Positive connections.
A lot has changed. So what to do about that?
My choice is to make the ground I stand on a positive, generous, hopeful, and inclusive space.
One by one, one to one, one step at a time.
Slowly, slowly.
I’m going to go make some stuff!
And, as always, it may resemble watching paint dry. But darn, I love watching paint dry and weather and chip and peel.
I will be delighted to have you stop by this blog from time to time and join me.
Cheers!
Cynthia
