Great insights as always, Amy. I have various craft projects scattered around - either partly done or never done, and I've also been known to throw up my hands and seek out new homes for those materials if enough time (and mounting clutter) go by.
I'm trying something new for creativity - shaking up my daily routine. My goal is to not be locked into 'this always has to happen at this time'. I think we get a better sense of time (and not always looking up at the end of the day and bemoaning 'where did the time go?') - if there's something new to do (or at least, new time to do it), every day.
One of my biggest time sucks is getting stuck into the laptop first thing and getting lost scrolling thru news, emails, tweets and such. I'm giving myself a big 'plus' for not doing that first thing today, despite great temptation to see what the Star Wars community thinks of the Boba Fett finale. Not to fear - I'll be looking at that soon, but maybe setting an alarm on the iphone so I don't get 'time sucked' yet again <G>. Cheers, Phyllis
