Unexpected beauty

SD2 and her beau came to visit with a furry family member. The boys were so not interested in the furry addition and so stayed hidden.

The trip was way too short but what can you do? Jobs get in the way of our social time sometimes.

I was left with this little beauty of a watercolor painting.  I absolutely love this and am awed by talent that makes this look so easy.

I think the reason I work in fiber (yarn, fabric, floss) is that I have learned to maneuver it into the form or shape or design that fits what I see in my head. Even in abstract form, I struggle to make pen, pencil, or paint resemble the images I want to see!

I'm reading a book on burnout and I had to take a bit of some words to remember.

"...along with creative self expression - writing, drawing, singing...."

So, blogging, crocheting...sounds like I'm on the right track to help with my stressors and workplace drama. Who knew I was already doing something right?!

Here's hoping you find ways to de-stress today.
