*Sigh*
It has been so nice since the holidays have been over, which seems really backwards and probably not how it should be.
I've been playing with the girls more and just planting myself down in their room to shop for groceries with Lizzie or play with the quads, as I call them.
I don't know if Julia is intending to pick this poor doll's nose or not. These are the quads, Nicole, Sally (getting her nose picked), Polly, and Bridget. The girls named them and Julia is pretty good about keeping them straight but sometimes she'll call one Madeline just for kicks.
Without the chaos of holiday obligations I've been getting inside my own head a bit too much this week. Having one of those moments where I sort of feel like I'm pretty mediocre at anything I do. I don't feel like I keep myself sharp as a designer (whatever that would look like) and my design ability is more functional to help pay bills than anything I'm truly proud of. I don't produce anything worthy of any kind of design show or competition, am I supposed to try to be part of those? I also made the mistake of looking at some super crafty blogs and started to feel like in that area there wasn't really anything I was that good at, or that one skill I excelled at. It was so strange, I was having this ho hum attack or something. One friend suggested I listen to Jim's sermon from last Sunday so I might be looking that up and seeing if I can put it on my ipod for my drive to ktown tomorrow.
This funky mood has been so strange, and probably stems from pride or something yucky like that. Oh boy can't wait to dig deep and discover the self loathing. (that was mostly sarcasm and only a small amount of truth, lol)
Lizzie with her tissue paper art we did yesterday. Nice hip action, huh?
