Well here it is, February 24th, and I am not depressed….yet. I have been clinging on for dear life though, believe me.
Well first off, I do not receive the credit card bills, so that didn't really have an effect on me. Second, I made two new years resolutions, and while I may not be a gung ho as I was on 1/1/2011, I am not down and out yet.
Resolution #1 is to lose 45 pounds. I started off pretty strong, and I lost 3 pounds by February 9th! However, I went on vacation, and gained 7 pounds in one week.
Fail…
As exciting as my weight loss woes are, that isn’t what this blog is about. My blog is about Resolution #2.
Resolution #2 is a bit complicated. For years now, (if not my entire life) I have had this need to be creative, artistic, and to profit from it. Thus far it hasn’t gone so great.
Lets see, I have a room full of supplies for knitting, sewing, jewelry making, polymer clay molding, painting, drawing, soap making, scrap booking, & candle making. Let us also not forget the failed ventures that were associated with those supplies. There was RSVP Invitations, Endee Designs, Comfy Cozy Candle Company & the latest flop jilnik LLC. I think I also tried a cupcake business somewhere in there as well.
Ok now depression is setting in..
So this year I decided that I have wasted enough time, money & energy on things that I don’t have a passion for. So what exactly is it that do I have a passion for? Besides Coach bags and
I know whatever ‘it’ is I have to utilize my creative side. I also have to get over something that has also haunted me through out the years – I need to overcome the fact that I am a procrastinator.
The definition of procrastinate according to www.thefreedictionary.com is:
To put off doing something, especially out of habitual carelessness or laziness. Or to postpone or delay needlessly.
Hmmm…. laziness? Delay needlessly? Check and check. Hopefully at this point you are having an “A-ha” moment. She’s crafty? She’s a procrastinator? She’s a ProCraftstinator? How genius, witty and clever of her! If not, I have not done my job, and I will add this blog to the list of failures… Oh wait this isn’t my first blog. There was Material Gurl, Niki D sounds off, & blog for Endee Designs.
Well even if no one reads these words I have so carefully crafted this evening, I have my own little place on the internet where I can hold myself accountable, and hopefully document this new endeavor I am about to embark on.
