The Best Laid Plans

I had plans last week. Plans to be creative and get started on some new projects. Early in the week I wrote my blog posts ahead, which I rarely do, so I could have extended time to write on Thursday and Friday morning. And then…

I got sick.

Not horribly sick or anything. Just enough to use that extra writing time I had freed up for sleep. Not sick enough to stay in bed all day but enough to have no creative energy. For those of you who create through chronic illness, I salute you. All I’ve wanted to do for the last week is sit in my comfy chair, cuddled up under a quilt with a book and a mug of tea.

And here I am, a week later, feeling much the same. So I’m surrendering to it. I managed to get the Digital Photography Basic eBook done and out, but that’s it for this week. It’s time to sink into my comfy chair and get better, so I can enjoy Thanksgiving tomorrow with my in-laws who are visiting from out of state.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I’ll see you back here when I’m feeling better.

    How wise to surrender to the way you feel – it all becomes easier after that.
    Enjoy your comfy chair and your quilt and hot drinks and you will soon be as right as rain again! What a strange expression! The British must have invented it as they know all about rain, especially this year!

    Kat, I wanted to say thank you for your lovely e-book which I have downloaded and started to read. Thank you so much for this gift!
    I like the leaf patterns – they look like collages.
