Like a squirrel in Autumn

Swept along on a tide of busyness its easy to bury who we really are. Our hopes and dreams treasures are hidden away and sometimes forgotton in the box of 'times past' or 'for another day'. Through others eyes we are perceived and presumed to be...

Its a different view though when you are on the inside of the mirror and looking out...


I've been busy with jobs that sometimes get in the way but have to be done. The varnishing of floors can be tedious and painting of window frames a little mind numbing but I have fitted in some drawings for new hangers and paintings and have been storing ideas like ripe hazelnuts, as a squirrel does in Autumn.

    I know what you mean. Sometimes we are so busy that we do have to store away our ideas for a quieter date!

    I love the owl.

    Lovely little hobbit ears. :-)

    I so know what you mean about how other things and other work getting in the way of remembering what we *really* want and are. After too much time spent doing work for other people, I sometimes I have hard time even knowing what *I* want to work on.

    Good for you for such good squirreling.
