It’s funny how sometimes we feel so determined to do something, and then life just happens. That’s how I found myself trying to be a mom and an artist. Before I had help but now so much as mom got sick. And of course, the most essential things in life always take priority and everything else is put to the back burner. Except, I am really trying to figure out how to carve time to express myself as an artist. It just hasn’t been so easy.
How to make sure my daughter is always happy and entertained now that she’s on summer vacation? How to make sure that my house is always clean and in full order (ahah)? How to make sure that there is still some “me” time? How to make sure that I exercise that creative muscle, which the more you do, the more it rewards you? Can I have it all?
Not easy but also not impossible. I’ve figured if I used small increments of time during the week, I can steal some creative time. That way, at least I would be doing something about my art. Write a blog post, or do some sketching. And maybe even do some actual work on my iPad. Who knows!
