Everything is fine- thanks for checking up on me! I am just a bit busy so I took some time off blogging and social media but hope to be back to blogging tomorrow and back to social media next week.
I have found your quote to be true. When I’m “in the groove,” with writing or music, it feels like an endless stream. The problem becomes turning it off when it’s time to eat, sleep, or simply spend time with loved ones.
I definitely feel like I can’t turn it off sometimes and I know my family gets irritated occasionally because they want to do something but I’m in the middle of writing. It’s hard to have that perfect balance sometimes.
It is said there used to be a poet who’s very creative when he’s sleeping. Is it Freud who said that the dream set us free from the usual restrictions we experience during the daytime? OK, now in order to be more creative, I will go to bed.
I was unable to leave a comment on your most recent post and I am guessing you disabled comments so that you can stay focussed on the task at hand. Correct me if I’m wrong…
I wanted to share a thought with you regarding your “posting streak” (sept 30 blog post). Do realize that the need to maintain this “posting streak” is in your head. When we place worth on these things, we think that they are important. But honestly, it doesn’t matter if you don’t post for a few days. We will still be here when you get back.
Thanks! I totally get that streaks aren’t real but I want that little WP notification that says 365 days at the end of the year lol. And blogging keeps me sane 😂

Lol I am definitely quite creative in my dreams. I believe it is either Freud or Jung that said that but not too sure.
