Vicki's Daily Creation

December 3rd, 2003

Goal for this month:

Make all my Christmas gifts.

I've been doing a lot of creative things lately, but stuff that's hard to post. I've noticed that when I work at Oskadusa, I use up all my creative juices helping people with their projects, and don't feel like doing anything when I get home. I guess the discipline is to do it anyway!

I've been taking photos of a local band, and cropping them, etc., and then posting them on their website. I've started a couple of paper arts projects, but not finished them. I've taught classes, including making new instructions for them. I played a little tambourine with some friends, and even sang some kareoke for the first time in my life! And no one told me to shut up! Believe me,that's a big thing for me, because we were heavily discouraged from making music or singing when I was a kid. See, Dad, it's ok to sing.

I'm feeling pretty good. Good luck to myself in staying away from too much sugar over the holidays.

I made these display cards for the earrings that I made the other day... maybe I'll sell a few at the bead store!

I haven't posted in a while (obviously!)... I've been working for other people almost every day since the last post, and I'm TIRED! I'm also working here and there on Christmas gifts, and I don't want to post them here until after Christmas - Don't want to spoil any surprises!

My Christmas wish for today - May we all just be nice to each other.

My mood has been fairly positive, I've been pretty good about taking my vitamins, and my diet is approaching healthy - except I got stressed yesterday and ate half a dozen Krispy Kreme donuts...
