Soul searching

I've been doing alot of thinking lately.



What am I doing?
Where am I going?
What do I want to do?



I am such a control freak that I tend to want to have a plan, with a back up plan, and a contingency plan in place before I start something.



Something finally 'switched' in me and I've come to a place in myself that I now know the answers to those questions - and if I don't have the answer, it's OK.


What am I doing?   answer - not what I want to!
Where am I going?  haven't been getting anywhere so I better change!
What do I want to do?  I've got my ideas, but I'm open to suggestions!


So what does that mean right now?

There is a plan in place - finally.


I'm doing some purging and simplifying-  The rugs pictured were recent projects made from material I found while I was sorting and discarding donated weft materials.  Anything that didn't make me want to weave it when I touched it - it went.

I've been selling anything I don't love and need.  Once a week I walk through the house and ask myself "what can I sell now?"  Facebook rummage sale sites work pretty good!  LOL

There is a feeling inside now - kind of calm that is different from the agitated feeling I've been carrying around for awhile.

This may take a bit.  But I've started.

All for now,
JULIE

I'm hearing this sentiment from a lot of friends. Perhaps it's a pendulum swining back from a materialistic era - look out for number one. Buy it because you're worth it. My friend Amy gave away a thing a day for a year. Glad you're feeling relieved.
