Now where was I?

Its been so long...I should just go back and read what and when I wrote last. Nah. New day.

Its dreary and cold in Indiana. Typical for January. We are all begging for sunshine. Maybe I should just go tan? That DOES help. We'll see.

Its been a BLAH week for me. Not sure if there is a single reason, or many. Probably several things that contribute to it all.

The boys had the flu last weekend. Mark and I then had a 'touch' of it...nothing major. Just feeling kinda "off" for a couple days.

I'm back on Weight Watchers. My friend Pam suggests that maybe my body is regulating itself to this new "lifestyle change" (NEVER say "diet")...she could be right. I've not entirely eliminated sweets from the menu, but I've drastically reduced the intake. So maybe I"m on a sugar-meltdown of sorts. ? I don't know. I just know I thought I should be feeling "good" by now. I've lost almost 20 lbs. Psychologically I do feel good, but physically I still feel 'blah.'

I do know I need to be moving. As in EXERCISE. But for whatever reason, I just CANNOT seem to get with it. I know I MUST. I KNOW I will feel better. I know this because I've done it. But STARTING, like with any other new thing in my life, is just hard.

But I gotta.

I've also been sort off my game w/ my card designs. Have this feeling of dread about even THINKING about working on anything. Well, at least that's how its been for the most part. There are snippets of motivation, but they are fleeting. I even cleaned and rearranged my craftroom; initially thinking that would inspire creativity. But no. It hasn't. Just the opposite.

Now I wonder, "what in the world will I do with my time, if I don't do cards?" I've been so consumed by that hobby for so long now, I just don't know what else interests me. Maybe I should consider cleaning my house. Nah.

I do know that at least some of this funk is due to lack of time in the Word. I'm truly convicted about this. So I will remedy it by making time every day for it. I have several great studies waiting for me...that will only be enhanced by reading the scripture.

So, we'll see how the Lord will reveal Himself to me in the days ahead. I"m looking forward to it.

He is the author of creativity, after all. Maybe I'll find a whole new level of passion for my hobby, and find a way to bless people.

I'll let you know how it goes.
