In a funk


Its been a hard couple of weeks, I had surgery and then a string of unfortunate side effects, rendering me almost completely useless as far as work is concerned.
I keep waking up hoping that today will be the day I will be able to jump back in to a 12 hour studio day, bouncing around doing a million things at once and being happy about it...... It hasn't happened yet.
I always forget how important work is to my sense of well being, I take it for granted really. I moan and complain about the crunchy deposits that form in my shoulders, or how tired I am, and then WHAM! I am unable to pull off more than a few studio hours per day, and it hits me hard! I am so ready to get back to my workaholic ceramics obsessed ways....

I know how hard it is when your physical self isn't up to what the rest of you wants to get done. But I think that it is important to listen to your body and give it the time and care it needs so that you can be a completely functioning being.

Hope that you are back up to speed soon!

There is nothing harder than being forced to sit around when you want to work. But you are a smart girl, I know you can use the time well by sketching, dreaming, and watching the real housewives of new york!
