Wait is it Still August? Life & Studio Update?

Month 5...?

of Covid Times

We are still staying home

Not going inside public places...

Hubs is working from home

&

Im still not working...

So, Ive had opportunity to change up the studio...

at first it was to put a good width of distance if clients are here...

now its a full time creative mind, body, spirit haven...

when we first moved in...

there was a big bump out closet with these bi-fold doors...

we have since used these doors behind our bed, painted white... 

looks like some crazy boho paneling.

all of me wee supplies were cozy inside this crazy bump-out...

I would change up the floral swag with the seasons etc...

how cute it was just starting out here at Fox Hill

After some updates...

and the product shelf...

I still have products when I thought we were going to be outta this sooner...

now I consider it a life time supply...?

the original arrangement of all the wee mirrors...

hey there's a face in there too!

all the taxes prepped here...

good times

when I first learned that I was going to have more than a couple of weeks...

well, how could I not start reworking what I never had time to rework...

besides, anything that is assembled...

can be disassembled.

MMMMuuuuuahahahahahahahahahaaa!

Now I have gently used wood pieces for the reusings...

where the closet was... 

this was the first gathering of the things...

anybody need a painting painted???

no really...

the planty friends are very happy...

an assortment of sheer curtains and a misty morning...

captured by the wyze cam...

pretty good light to take the pics for the Olde Etsy Shoppe

Im taking some of the wood for the reusings...

and building some shelves!

these puppies are making it real easy... 

and I can make two nice display shelves...

BARGAIN!!!

here's my pandemic chic ready for the post office, ride along selfie...

I don't think I had a panic attack on this ride...

so...

winning...?

this came in the mail...

lots of tea on the English cottage garden philosophy...

my lil buddy...

hes sitting in the chair next to me now.

first oranges in months...

and a bunch more learnin materials...

one of the volunteer sunflowers

and someone apparently thought I could use a mushroom...

wink wink nudge nudge...

I guess...

anyhoo, I have a call from my therapist in a min

and I hope you all are doing well

Self Employed Bitch! Embrace Productivity!

Blah!

Who wants to be Productive?!? 

No ones looking...  Go Ahead... Goof-Off!

Yeah Right...

The Joys of Being Self-Employed! 

There's a Funky Balance between Working 24/7 & Procrastination...

Some days you won't have Brekkie... :-( 

My Trade-Off was to have My Iced Coffee in a Wine Glass!

And Hello! Tiger Can Cooler! Total Score from Yesterdays Supply Run! lol

Bask in that for a Millisecond... 

Now Put on Some Lip Gloss & Get to Work!!!

The To Do List is long and complicated!

There's only time for this Crazy Lil Squirt Bottle of "Coffee Drink"...

0.0 as long as it's Caffeinated!!!

Relaxing Mornings with a cuppa...  Tea/Coffee/Cocoa... not today...

Biz can/will feel like this...

Sometimes alarms are needed to make sure meals are eaten...

Hyper-Focus is a Gift...

You have to be Mindful not to let that Gift turn into a Pitfall.

For Real.

If ppl think its some kinda haha funny to keep The Air... I mean Coffee from you...

They will have to deal with the consequences... X-D

They don't know the Crazy Tangled Messes you have on your plate....

And how you Make Trash turn Magically into Treasure...

The Front Porch is Nearly Super-Gypsy-fied!!!

Or...

Ugh... entering Week 3 of Go Thru ALL The Crap!

The Pit of Despair... I mean The Office... 0.o

What tha????????????????? :-(

You mean all this Crap has to go Somewhere...

We are knee-deep over here Kittens, Stay Tuned!!!

Notebooks get Filled during the Evenings...

Of how to Solve the Hoarding Crisis, etc...

And the Supply Runs are totally Time Consuming....

& Educational...

Who knew...

Very Tempting...

There are ALWAYS going to be Fallow times in being Self Employed...

& When there are Moments to Steal...

Do It!

Take a Hike with a Good Friend...

#StealYourMoments

Or go to the Company Gym (do Yoga)...

Your Co-Workers (dog) look on in Amazement!

You're so Flexi!

(Travel Meditation Kit)

Jet Off to a Retreat (Meditate on the porch for 15mins)...

If you Grab some Vitamin D in the Process, alright!!!

And For Me, Most Importantly!!!

Productivity Meetings!!!

Once a Week...

This Makes Sure I'm Prioritizing the Right things & not Getting Distracted by the Wrong ones....

Thinking ahead so all the Projects/Dreams can get the Attention they need.

And so...

Not having the Conventional Rules means a Morning/Evening might get spent...

Squeezing in the last bits of an Idea...

Finishing a List...

Making a Run to go get that one Item that will Complete a Composition/Project...

And then...

Like a Wee Bandit...

Steal the F outta every lil Moment You can!!!

Hope you all get a Moment to Steal ASAP!

And in the Process...

MAKE SOMETHING!!!

XOXO
