Time to feed my creative self

This past weekend, I taught and wrote. My husband and I also celebrated date night, took our dogs to training classes, and took care of lots of chores. We kept busy, busy, busy, but also stayed caught up with everything. Whew!

So this weekend I can feed my creative self by designing a music scrapbook for my sister. Holding an editorial meeting with my husband to pick out my best and worst chapters of my novel. Going online to post at other blogs. Browsing books about Newfoundland, as part of research for my novel. Revising an article about agility to submit to a children’s magazine. An ideal weekend!

Of course, if the weather keeps warming up, I might switch up that routine. Go for a walk in the park. Hug a shelter animal. Take a road trip. Visit the zoo. This week though it’s mostly about indoor creative stuff.

What about you? What six words describe your Saturday this week?

You will have to post some pics of those pages in the scrapbook. I would love to see them, as I have a very musical family.

Hmm, my siblings do play piano, but my scrapbook will just be a montage featuring singers and songs that my sister and I both like. She’s big into music and television. A typical teenage girl. 🙂

It is so nice when we are all caught up with things and can just relax…or spend time doing something we really enjoy! Glad this can be one of those days for you! ENJOY!

Happy Saturday!

The scrapbook is for my sister, who is a teenager. Keeping up with her is a feat. 🙂
