Writing this on Monday morning- after my weekend long intense outdoor Art Show is over.
Hoping to take it easy today and do things slowly. Not rushing. Not doing extras. And being lazy whenever time allows- an afternoon nap may happen…
I also feel a bit shaken from being outside in the cold all weekend. It was crazy how cold it was for this time of the year. And the wind didn’t help. I think it starts warming up today, because single digits in June is not acceptable at all!
Anyways, trying not to complain is hard. But having hope is fine, right? And so, I will hope for warmth because I have been cold a long time, and seriously done with it. I want to feel uncomfortably hot for a bit now.
The weekend was amazing in other ways if not in terms of weather…I had lots of amazing conversations, new connections, and got to meet people who were so interested in talking and telling their stories and connection to some art piece or the other. New moms, retired folks, people looking to decorate their homes, people connecting to their new neighborhoods, people trying to find the artists within themselves, friends cheering their friends on etc.
I am happy and relived its over. I am also richer from all the connections I got to make over the weekend. To see people’s faces light up looking at my light whimsical art. And to just listen to them, to see them interested in my inspirations and ways of working…yes, it was a great weekend.
And now I am wiped out. And content. And relieved.
Now I just plan to play and experiment through the summer- between all our plans and travels. And to work on business side of things- they never go away!
Time to rest and relax a bit, before the motivation and plans come bubbling back inside of me.
