Rinse & Repeat

Such a silly and somewhat boring name for such a bright and playful necklace, huh? Oh well, that's what it wants to be called. No, really. I was uploading the photos and as I was hitting "save as" when the words "Rinse & Repeat" were suddenly being repeated over and over in the my head. What else would I think but this is what the necklace wants to be called? LOL.

My guess is that it is really my subconscious (or dare I say my creative spirit) talking to me. That it feels like I am in a rinse & repeat mode of life right now. Not really doing much more then going through the motions of the day. Not enjoying things enough. And my subconscious would be right. I am still trying to find my footing and a routine to the quiet days I have. Some aren't so quiet, with running here and there, or mid-day doctors appointments that totally throw me off... but at least a few times a week, it is just me, in my quiet house, wondering what to do next.

I had all that pent up creative energy in August and I don't know where it went. I am waiting for it to come back. LOL. Silly, I know. But as I have said before, I am patient when it comes to things like this. I will be inspired and overly creative again in no time. I have an art show coming up in a few weeks and I don't want to disappoint... so lots of new things will be made. I just wonder what new things? Do you ever wonder things like that? There is always a "new thing" and it is out there waiting to be thought of... I sometimes sit and wonder if the thing I am doing at that moment will be the catalyst for the new thing I have been waiting to get inspired to do. Puts grand expectations on little things, I think, and makes me disappointed when the new thing doesn't pop into my head. Alas, it is how I think though, and changing the way you think is a hard thing to do.

And there we are... back to a "Rinse & Repeat" way of life. My stars, I sound sappy. I don't feel sappy. I feel bored, and cheeky, and tired of being patient, and like my ponytail is too tight today. LOL. I am in a think-I-aughtta-paint-something-lime-green kinda mood. You know what... I might just do that! I have been wanting to re-paint the dining room for a while now, and I found a color I love, and although it isn't lime, it is a lovely shade of aqua-ish green. I bet I could have it done by the end of the week. Hmmm... wonder if Ron would mind?
