I have done absolutely nothing but paint all day long. I even skipped dance class, which is unheard of, with the promise to myself that I would instead go tomorrow.
I have a little personal problem, being my own worst critic and all, I am constantly creating and then deciding I hate what I have just spent days making, only to transform it to something else.
A few days ago I decided that I no longer liked the very first painting I did of the little red bird...hanging next to all of the other paintings I liked him less and less with each day...so today he was reincarnated as twins! And oh how I love the transformation!
To add to the growing collection of birds and owls, I also did this one...Which perhaps is my new favorite!
Besides painting, I have been really really lazy. My brain seems fuzzy, like I am on a different planet. I am not thinking straight and feel just short of a vegetable. Apparently this is normal for new mothers, but I am a bit panicky that I am going to end up staying like this forever!
I find myself thinking, is this what happens to all the mothers out there in the world, and why all of the little old ladies are so clueless about life, because they got knocked up, ended up on cloud nine and never got down?
Steph,
ReplyDeleteyour baby is getting her nutrients. When she is born you will get your energy back..only if you take naps when the baby does...than you will try and be a vegtable when she becomes a teenager....its all down hill after that..
Lovin' all of you!

OMG! You are bringing some funny memories...I promise...when it all passes you will laugh about how dumb, clumsy and useless you felt back during the pregnancy...I think your aunty is right...It has to do with your whole body kinda busy doing something else, you know? Not much energy left for mundane, daily life things! he he
