Morning Brainstorm

I didn’t even have time to clear the table…

Can't Even Clear The Table

About 4 or 5 years ago I had my chart done.  It was a fantastic experience.  I remember quite a bit, but what I remember most is what Andrea said at one point.  “The next 9 years of your life will be most creative.”  I probably say that to myself every day, a few times a day.  It makes me tingle a bit.  And of course, it is most meaningful, since then, I’ve created another life, I’ve created a business,  friendships, projects, gardens and so much more.

I find myself inspired all the time.  So many ideas running through my head, projects, colors, fabrics, classes, blog posts, books, music, movies.  Sometimes, I can’t even write them down fast enough, but I try to do at least that. Whenever it hits, I write it down.  Somewhere.  I have sketchbooks and notebooks galore, and I always refer back to them, write on old pages, tear them out to put on the board.

This morning, I couldn’t stop to clear the breakfast table before I got a pile of things and spread them out.  A few W magazines from my visit to the library yesterday.  Some Iz art.  Some big buttons (I’m making a coat…), clay prints we did the other day, my new favorite tea (I like the Morning Americano), a star “sno globe” from my BFF and of course my Franklin.

I am a huge Franklin fan after being Franklin-ized at a corporate job almost 10 years ago. I love that everything has a place, that I make a record and I can plan, plan and plan.  I have tabs for LuckyStitches, for this blog, for other big projects too soon to mention.  It’s something that helps clear my mind and get things started and accomplished.  I end my few minutes in my Franklin every morning with jotting down “dishes” and “laundry”, along with a blog idea or two.

Have a great day.
