This morning I pulled myself away from my growing To Do list to get in a little creative time.

I have to say that I’ve really been enjoying getting a little more organized, de-cluttered, and clean(er), but as I told my husband “We need to take some time off from getting things done and relax!”, so we took our little boat out this week for a spin around the lake.

I consider using up years worth of junk journal supplies, and finishing up journals, as part of my de-clutter project. (If you have any theories on why I can’t throw small bits of paper away, please leave a comment below!) So to me, I’m accomplishing something when I finish a page spread.

But why do I need an excuse to arrange small bits on pages? Is there a way to get rid of that small voice that keeps reminding me of all the things that need doing?

I think it’s because every time I get out supplies and start creating I hear a little voice telling me there is something else I should be doing…

It just happened!

“Honey, did you want to re-hang those mirrors right now?”

Shoot! It’s not a little voice, it’s my husband!

(seriously, this just happened while writing this blog post!)

Ya, so not getting rid of the small voice, he’s kinda cute!

Until next time,

Thank you for stopping in,

Take some time for you,
