Time to Refresh

Good morning readers!  I have to admit, I have been dragging my heels in trying to come up with a blog post.  I find myself receiving more and more commission work, which is wonderful and my knitwear business was the original reason for starting this blog in the first place.  However, I find myself falling further and further behind with my writing because my projects are very time consuming in nature.  So I am writing to say that I will be branching out in my writing!  I originally assumed that I would be successful in blogging because I had very specific topics I was planning on writing about and typically I am someone that responds well to boundaries.  Ironically, my creative process cannot be hindered by parameters.  Apparently I find it stifling.  So maybe this announcement is to reignite my muses, and I need only say it to myself, but I feel a sense of responsibility to my readers and owe you a heads-up on this game change.

So from now on I will write about whatever I feel like.  If I am in the mood to ponder the Temperance movement's influence on prohibition in 1920s America I'm going to write about it.  Or if I'm in the mood to share a wonderful recipe I made, I'll write about it.  I may possibly even write about beauty and fashion...or health and well-being and I will definitely be writing about my home, my knitting, salvage projects, the gardens, and other exciting experiences.  I have an eclectic array of interests and will share whatever I am inspired by.  This shift could possibly be driven by the change of seasons...it is definitely spring here in the Midwest and I am feeling hopelessly optimistic, or it could be that I have broken through some barriers in my personal life and I am feeling wide open to the creative energy of the world. I have no idea where it is going to take me but I definitely don't want to ignore it.  I hope you will still read my posts from time to time and find them informative, inspiring, or at least interesting.  Now that I have gotten these thoughts out of my head hopefully I can sleep as soundly as my snoring husband is right now!  Thanks for reading!

Cheers,
Amy L.
