Creativity

So, I've been feeling a bit down lately. PMS mostly I think. And holidays. I love my kids dearly, but Kindy is a welcome break for me sometimes (did I really just admit that to the internet world?!).

I was rummaging through the kitchen junk drawer this morning (does everyone have those or is it just me?). I was looking for an allen key to adjust the seat on one of the kids' bikes when I came across a 4B pencil that I didn't know was in there. It looks like a nice one (I think it belongs to my husband), and I haven't used a decent pencil for years, so I thought I might do a little sketching. I raced up to the office to find the watercolour paper that I knew was there, then found a couple of pics of my boys and set to. I'm quite pleased with the results actually (although not quite ready to share them with the world). It's got me thinking about spending more time being creative. Especially when I'm feeling down ... I'm feeling a bit more centred now.

Who needs a therapist?!
