Ideally I will have 52 studio days this year. That's not very many, is it? 52 days in which to accomplish many things. I have four cloaks to sew and embroider (and I am NOT a good embroiderer and am very slow at it). I have six enamel projects in my mental pipeline, some of which are in the process of being sketched out and finalized, others of which have barely made their whispers heard. I have at least two beading projects to do this year - both of which are quite unknown as of yet. One for Beading For A Cure, and one with my friend Shruti. (Note to self...better Email Shruti and get our subject matter under serious discussion-LOL.) I want to draw more. I want to paint more. And I still have a house to clean and a craft room to reorganize. I asked for more days off for a Christmas gift. I was given one extra day. I will use it - most absolutely will use it. But I sure would have liked even more days.
But for today, my inner spirit is singing. I have the ability to spend 5-6 hours on projects of my choosing and I will be sawing silver, finalizing images for two different enamel projects, and figuring out whether the fabric pens that I purchased on Sunday will actually work for transferring my embroidery design to my current cloak project. If it does, I can get back to work on the embroidery and that will make me quite joyous. So....this is going to be a great day, and day 52 of this year, as we count down towards the last day of the year, will only be good!
