stress…less

April 4, 2008

Exhale!..I am still working away on my projects: 1) 7/30/365 Art Card Project. I have been lingering around six cards a week and don’t think I will get to 7/30/365. Fear not I am not the least bit stressed over this. Its suppose to be a fun stress free personal challenge. And it is. My cards are all fiber post cards. I’ll post them all after the challenge year. It will be nice to see just where I began and where it leads me. Of course, I may not always be able to even do the six I’m doing now.  Life gets in the way sometimes and causes things to slow down a bit or come to a screeching halt. I’m not anticipating anything major except a move in the near future ( date pending) and dd’s knee surgery the end of this month. So the two little ones will be under foot quite a bit more. Lucky me! And I do mean that. They are my heart strings. Moving on to number 2) The journal quilts which has not been going as planned. I have only completed two months.  The plan was to do at least one journal quilt per month.  March is in-complete and April is really up in the Air. No stress here either. Its my personal challenge. One of my goals was to explore more this year. Some of my fiber cards will be exploration pieces and some will reflect feelings and other stuff.  The journal quilts, same rule applies. I find myself jumping between projects and starting new ones before finishing the older ones. I bet you’re thinking I probably never get any thing finished. Actually once I get going and I’m on a roll my UFOs start to quickly move to my finished pile. I have to keep telling myself to put them out of sight, least I look at just one and decide its not finished yet until I…… oh well!  And this is two out twenty-three…goals I made for the year.  How in the world will SHE EVERRR…… ? No stress here! You can tell by now that one of these was to be more calmer this year and don’t stress over everything. Anyway, most of these are a mind set for me and some are just small task. Which I might move to my to-do list.  Least this list is getting longer….oh well…. Exhale!
