The Desk Has Ascended!

 Can you believe that the day has finally arrived!!!

Still have to settle it all in

But!

Look at it! 

Now compare the old table… 

It now lives in our kitchen 

Where the sheer square space of it

Is much more appropriate…

Even husband said it felt more inviting to sit and eat than the last lil table we had set up…

I have so many lil things that need to get pushed around 

Here and there 

Pictures and mirrors etc etc… 

And there had been 

One colossal distraction last week 

Kind of slowing all of the progress…

I’ve been working on my ACNH island…

Is that art imitating life or an Artist imitating their real life?

Horse painting anyone…?

LoL

We’ve been obsessed with the UK show TaskMaster as well, which now I’ve attempted to recreate on our Animal Crossing Island… almost finished with it… 

And I’m off!

Writing and painting and living and yeah there’s dancing and singing too… 

Trying to take in all of this energy that’s coming in!

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

MAKE Of The Day: Research & Development Breakfast in Bed

Self Employed...

Working from Home...

You've got a project on tap for the start of your day...

But you can't get the get up n go...

The office is all the way on the other side of the house, & PJs are SOOOOO comfy!




And you hafta eat brekkie & coffee is much needed... 

This is time for a CREATIVE MASHUP!!!!!!!



~Grab a tray~


~Grab Your Periodicals & Materials~


~Fill a vessel with the coffees~


~Granola/Nuts/Seeds/Berries/PB/Kefir~


~Stir it!~EAT IT!~


*YUM*

MAKES the start of the day deceptively feel more indulgent! Even tho all it is is multi-tasking in a different room ;-D

I ate✔️
I drank my coffees✔️
I took in the visuals✔️
& MADE the notes/lists✔️✔️

MAKING time to tackle the details, when Time is at a premium & sneaking in a lil Pampering.(that didn't include heaps of $$$/cheese/chocolate... whaaaa...?) 

Now that's the kind of multi-tasking I like! 



Happiness is produpampertivity! 
~take that autocorrect!~ ;-P

Be Productive! Be Creative! Be Comfy!

Most importantly...

MAKE SOMETHING!!!

XOXO
