I have been painting past midnight...and now, I sit in bed--barely able to sleep. I'm exhausted. Tired. Beat. But I just can't sleep.
All I want to do is create. Create paintings, workshops, art journal LOVE, dinners, conversations, blog posts, videos, photos, maps around the park by my house, connections with strangers, deeper relationships with friends, plaster masks, clay pots, silly songs with my kindergartners, smoothies, and moments that I define simply as being Creative Juicy.
I want to do everything
and nothing but sleep.

This post made me take a deep breathe....
and want to come over and tuck you in. You know like a Momma would, smooth the sheets, put you inside, tell you a calming fairytale of possibility, watch your eyes droop a little, turn off the light leaving the night light on, kiss your forehead and wish you sweet, sweet dreams...there will be time to play tomorrow. Give yourself the rest you need too.
Big Love to you , beautiful Dreamer Girl !
Connie- I have had this exact feeling too. Wanting to get in everything, so excited about the possibilities, and am finding sleepy time very inconvenient. LOL
I'm making the space during the day for a nap, if needed. Love you!
I can totally relate!
I've become so protective of my "creative time" that much is being neglected, like the paperwork piling on my dresser. So yes, sleep and eating also kind of get in the way. :)
I have had so many nights like that! When I know that magic is real. Keep on keeping on!!!
No it is me. I am really back in the bloggy world. I have been watching you all along, but didn't comment. I needed a real break but I am back for good. Thank you for the kind words my friend.
