Any Ideas?

I've been in a bit if a slump lately...

The house isn't selling.
My job has become a bore, with a manager who is almost unbearable.
The kids fight constantly.
There's dog hair in the house, holes in the yard.
I'm grinding my teeth so hard my jaw hurts- even with the night guard.

I'm on the last two pages of Marilyn's book, but am a bit stuck for ideas. The lyrics for these pages are: But I don't know where I am and I don't trust who I've been
And If I come home how will I ever leave

I have photos that I love, and yet, can't seem to integrate them.




Any ideas?

I don't have any ideas for your hobby, but I do know that your "slump" will turn around here shortly. Oh yes it will.

I am so sorry about the slump! I hope things turn around soon...

the images are beautiful...I guess start with the best stand-bys....a few crowns, winf=gs, and wreaths and see if any of the colors move you. Find some of your favorite paper and spread it all out....see if anything can fit together. If you haven't been to whimsicalmusings blog get there now- she has great links to download-able art and collage goodies, and lots of pieces for inspirations. These pictures are gorgeous- just beautiful- don't let that stop you, and please, show us what you come up with!

I wish I could help, but here I am at 11:30 pm browsing blogs for my own inspiration! I know you will get inspired soon. I get into those slumps too! I am so wanting to do one of those music lyric round robins now. If you are looking to do another one after this, let me know! have a good weekend Lee. xo nat

Ohh babe--

Hang in there girl. Yoiu are a strong soul. Don't let all this BS bite you -- you will push past it and get back on your mojo.

Ok the house thing will come. I'll try to call you on Monday during lunch and I can give you some ideas.

As for work--shit I've got nothing to add there---I wish we didn't have to go to work either!!

I just love those pictures. They are a perfect fit to the words. The are quite amazing actually!!All I can think of is glitter....

Ummmmm... I'm sure someone could add ideas that would compliment those images. You've got some serious skills, it will come!

Have a drink, a little personal time--Have a better weekend girlie. I miss you!!
