Decisions, decisions, decisions…

One of the things that keeps me from this blog is always some kind of decision. What should I talk about? What will anyone be interested in reading? How much should I show? Maybe a peek, a tutorial, a personal look at something? This goes on for long enough, and enough decisions are made on everything else, that I never get into the blog at all. Anybody else have this problem?

Then there’s always the “to do” list. Finish designing the stuff on my desk, prep for this weekend’s show, run errands, get change at the bank, order supplies, fill out your calendar, re-arrange your desk, mail out your orders, check social media, schedule social media, delete 900 e-mails, try to put out a newsletter, do tomorrow’s to do list, etc, etc, etc…
Then there’s the family “to do” list…collect all the laundry, call the Doctor, cook breakfast, go grocery shopping, wash the dog, advise child #1, clean the bathroom, wash the car, take a shower, drop the kids at sports, call your Mother, sweep the floor, wash the other dog…ad nauseum..

…you get the picture. More decisions. On everything.
But do you see “write on the blog” anywhere? Blog doesn’t show up, does it?
Not first…or in the middle…or at the end. Too many decisions and I can’t decide where to put it.
Sooo….time to make one more decision…what the hell am I finally doing here? Well…I guess I decided it was long enough. That I needed to try this again.
For how long and how often? No clue and I don’t know.
What will I bring my self to write about? Well…art…creativity…daily life stuff…basically I will be winging it and post things that tickle my fancy dependent on what day it is.
So about those decisions…I think I just made one.
To quit.
Until next time,

My Turn At The Wheel

Today i want to introduce everyone here to my new project and maybe you’ll learn a little bit about me along the way.

This project started as an idea to try to keep creativity flowing and gather the like minded to help do so. An opportunity to spread that creative spirit through out busy lives make new connections, online and off. A way to use the power of many to gain a better foothold over all the tasks it takes to be a self employed artist. I mulled this over for a year or more before spilling it all to my online friend, Lori Leissner of Leissnerart. After several chats we approached another online art gal friend, Ursula Smith of Easy Scraps. That brought us to today and a like minded group of 20+ self employed women artists from three continents.

 

I invite you to visit our fledgling blog at the Cre8ive Klatch.

I’m so excited about this collaboration i could scream…loudly!!

 

Continuing over the next weeks we will be introducing the crew members of the Klatch. Each was asked a set of fun, insightful questions so you can get to know them better. Mixed with that will be great artsy projects, a re-affirming gratitude component, and some creative surprises. Our goal is to connect to you through creativity and give you a spot to come when you need a pause from your busy life.

 

Join us and connect with the Cre8ive Klatch!

Always,

Susan

 

 

 

 

Introductions

Us with big heads

A bit of artistic license with the picture!

Thought it might be fun to start off by introducing the family. since they are integral to me getting anything accomplished it is a good thing to put them first! (but don’t tell them, it’ll go to their heads…ha!)
Back row, starting from the left is my Dad, then Mom, my husband and myself. Front row left, my son Paul and my daughter AdaLee. This was a piece I collages a couple of years ago and is missing one of our dogs. The pooch here is Tyler the wonder dog He’s the goofiest animal we’ve ever known. You can see more of him on my Tumblr page.
These are the people I live for each and everyday.

 Here we are again a bit more recent.
You’ll be seeing more of these people!

Until next time,

Susan
