Low Productivity


Hello, bright eyes! It's nice to see you!
The other night we had a yummy Mexican dinner with friends. She and I were talking about what we "do" and as I said, "I'm not a producer," I realized that this is VERY, VERY true. When I make things, complete things, well, it's a rarity!

Curtains for Jenny's former town home - took me forever!



Magic wand: a couple of hours and then Sue made one, too. Blog projects often reach completion.


I worked on this cardigan for a long time and then it felt so tight in the shoulders. I save it because I like to look at a knitted item that I actually completed. Note: this is at least two DECADES old.


Cross stitch: VERY low producer in this realm!


SOMETIMES, I paint wood and add knobs.


And at least ten years ago, I actually completed a wall papering job. Stay with me, play along.

Before Kelli and Bryan sold their first home, I actually completed this set of curtains. I'm glad I took a picture.

Okay, so now I feel better. Smile. My creative pursuits do not produce quantity, but I still appreciate the joy of creating, the process more than the product. I like that sage advice I've picked up from several wise bloggers: Do the next thing. Thank you.

I hope some light shines on your squishy heart today.


By the way, I LOVE reading about other peoples' projects, their plans, their joy upon completion. I really DO! Do you?
