A time of change and impatience

Today I am feeling lots of emotions. I am making progress on my cottage, and by the end of this week I will have a new bathroom. After a dodgy pink suite for years it will be a shock to see a white one there, but a lovely shock at that. Other rooms are beginning to take shape and there is a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel.

I haven't created in a while and I am like a light bulb slowly fading when that happens. Looking at other blogs, seeing bright pictures of studios, seeing amazing artwork makes me feel all sort of things - excited, envious, happy, restless, in awe and impatient. I want it all now and it's hard to wait for my turn.

I feel like a butterfly waiting to fly it's bright tiny wings for the first time.

Patience is what I need xx

A new dawn

Thank you for all your kind and inspiring words on my post yesterday, it really meant a lot to me. Yesterday was a day of realisation, and sometimes those times are not always nice. But I am filled with hope for my future and I feel invigorated for what I can achieve.

I found this quote which I think kind of sums it up really, and I do love a quote or two.

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending - Maria Robinson

I hope you all had a good weekend and have had a nice start to the week xx

Sunday Sketches

This week I wasn't particularly creative mainly down to time and also I'm at the brink of starting a long road to changes in my life. These will soooo be worth it in the the end, but I know it will be quite hard and challenging at times, not to mention stressful. So the thought, the worry and knowing the stress it can bring, has just unsettled me alot. Still Rome wasn't built in a day and usually the things you want the most can be the hardest to achieve.

Anyway, my Sunday Sketch is of a bird, which is kind of symbolic for me.....the bird represents the freedom to follow my dreams, the heart because at my core is the need to be creative, and the flower...well just because I love Daisy's.

I'm off to Sophia's blog to check out the other Sunday Sketches and then I shall be filing my tax return online!!!

Happy Sunday to you all.
