More


More of the lost and found film.  I find I am missing the creative.  I started a scrapbook for my daughter, perhaps it will require a bit of the creative me.  Her life to now in 84,  12" x 12"  pages. Though honestly the entire scrapbook project terrifies me.  It took 2 hours at the store for me to settle on the appropriate color scheme, palette, for her book.  My husband deserves an A+ for going with me.  I am sure I looked at all 300 choices.   I know he wanted to simply say, just pick something. Finally I settled on a vintage sort of palette, of grays, pinks, and scrolling things, that will compliment the pink leather of the scrapbook I bought.  

I am also missing the words.  They are beginning to sneak out here and there, in blog posts, notes to friends. I have no time for writing.  I can't even pull a submission together for a friend.  It seems I am simply exhausted at the end of my work day.  My brain is tired and when I get home all that is left is mush.  Brain mush, that still needs to take care of daily life mechanics.   I have never been this exhausted in my entire life.  Soon I am on vacation for 10 days, I am hoping that it helps charge the batteries and washes away the tired.
