As I walked home from work today I managed to stop myself grumbling to myself about the low sun glaring into my eyes. Instead I saw it as a creative opportunity to take a couple of photos. I often beat myself up for not taking the time to do creative things like getting my sewing machine out or making some jewellery. After making the effort to stop and take photos I felt a sense of relief, it was just a small victory but I realised that being more creative doesn't have to mean spending hours sewing or coming up with a new item for my collection. The simple things are just as satisfying.
Feeling good about my burst of inspiration I went and bought myself some flowers, put the kettle on (I never have a coffee when I get home but today I really felt like it), sat down and enjoyed a cup of coffee and opened my mail. I was pleased to see I got some from the UK (I get a little buzz when I see a UK stamp!) It was a nice thank you note from my cousin Kate and her husband Owen (thanks Kate and Owen! :-))
