Sometimes I do worry what everyone else is doing.  I guess this especially happens when  I feel Im not as far along as should be.  When I see that someone is always traveling or that they have gotten into a really great show or won a Fellowship or something....then I have to remind myself that I am kind of a homebody, that I have kinda been there and done that but, in a different way and I have stopped applying for those crazy fellowships.  

So for the rest of this week I am going to make a huge effort to not worry about what anyone else is doing. 

If you haven't peeked at Everyday is a Holiday blog yet you should.  I have been a featured advertiser on her blog for a couple of months.  We have never meet but, who wouldn't love someone named Jenny who has striped walls, pink hair, a fondness for sweets and a stuffed bunny collection.  Click the link below.....

I thought this was good advice. 

I just turned another year older and sometimes I get to a new year and I stop and think about where I am headed.  What do I want to get done etc...  I have found it harder as I grow older to make goals like I did when I was young.  I can remember when I wanted to get married, have a studio, a retail store, buy a house and more....  I have done all those things and more and now I am wondering what I want to do next.  Turning another year older wasn't too hard but, getting closer to 50 does bother me I have to be honest.   I am still being creative and making art and crafting but not nearly as much as I would like.  Feel alittle stuck most of the time.   Maybe it is just where I am right now with my "situation" which is being in love and married to someone who is sick.  So then I think okay well my clock is ticking too how can I keep moving forward and live my life to the fullest.  Hard "situation" really.  Just being honest.  I am on pinterest several times a day because "I love it" and today Julie Filo an artist I have never met whose work I admire pinned the following:
