A Creative Challenge

Hi Co Creators,

Wisdom Wednesday: It really is up to ME…

 It’s Up To Me

I get discouraged now and then
When there are clouds of grey,
Until I think about the things
That happened yesterday.
I do not mean the day before
Or those of months ago,
But all the yesterdays in which
I had the chance to grow.
I think of opportunities
That I allowed to die,
And those I took advantage of
Before they passed me by.
And I remember that the past
Presented quite a plight,
But somehow I endured it and
The future seemed all right.
And I remind myself that I
Am capable and free,
And my success and happiness
Are really up to me.
 ~James J. Metcalfe

Hi Co Creators,

or should I say, Co Declutterers,

Wisdom Wednesday: 

The word “decluttering” brings to my mind the image of boxes and bags being dumped out of a house. The house sighs with relief! Getting rid of the junk is a good first step. If to clutter means to “fill with confusion,” to declutter might mean to “restore order.” ~ Kathy Ridpath

Wow what a wonderful week so far… just enough much needed rain, and sunshine has returned today. Which in turn means HOT! HOT! HOT!

Did you do some decluttering? You have to be really creative when you declutter…I did heaps and made a very teeny tiny dent on my craft cupboard. If it is too overwhelming, or you have put this one in the too hard basket, try one room at a time, one cupboard or even one draw at a time. One small step leads to a bigger result. Go for it. You never know what will come to fill that space. We got a phone call to say 2 people are coming to inspect our house! (it’s 4 sale) Woo Hoo! UH OH more cleaning. I can highly recommend selling your home, it is great for decluttering. Ha Ha Ha…

Collecting is so much fun, old magazines are great for graphics, words, phrases & letters to make up fun stuff. Old ribbons, strings, cords, broken jewels, shells, sand, cardboard and beads, just to name a few items of distinction.

Enjoy filling up the decluttered spaces with more up to date, Need to Keep bits and pieces…  

Be seeing you on Freedom Friday,

Yours in Creativity
