That’s how I feel. Blah. No desire to design much anymore…not for more than a month. Would anyone miss me if I did stop designing? Probably not! I will definitely keep my site since it doesn’t cost that much to run, keep the challenges going and put the occasional designs in the Toybox, but for now, I am not going to force myself to design and put out 3 or 4 things a week. If something pops into my head, I’ll make it. Maybe this is all the summer slows or something, but for now, I’m just going with what I feel is right.

Saturday I got a bit of alone time because my family was having a get-together at my Aunt & Uncles house about an hour and a half away and DH doesn’t like those sort of things. I wouldn’t have any fun chasing Kaylee around, so I went by myself overnight and she stayed home with her daddy. The next morning I went to the mall and got Kristen a Strawberry Shortcake lunch bag to match her back pack and a new pair of sneakers for me. Lemme see if I can find a pic online…
They are SO comfy! The website says they are $19.99 but because I’m in Canada, they were $36.99. What a price difference eh? Worth the money though… After I was done shopping I came right home. My parents were golfing all afternoon so I would’ve just been sitting around there by myself anyway. DH said I could stay until after supper, but I decided to come home early. Was a fun day/night anyway!
DH is home today because it’s a holiday (Natal Day). We are off to go to the boardwalk then have lunch! Have a great day whether it’s a holiday or not!



Im sorry that the mojo isn’t there for you to design any more. Sometimes it is best to take a month or two away from desinging and scrap instead. Sometimes that helps put you back in gear because you need something to scrap with, so you might as well make it–like that little element you like using so much!
Those shoes look totally comfy! I went out looking for shoes yesterday, but couldn’t find anything that fit or I liked—wish I was as lucky as you!!

I’ll miss ya if you quit : ) Maybe you’ll get the mojo back later.
I so totally feel ya, Jennifer. I know you would be missed…at least you have the flexibility of your own site so you can give yourself a break whenever you feel like it. The mojo will return!!! Just treat yourself kindly and do what feels best for you and your family.
Sit back, relax, and kick your shoes off. Let your mind drift into daydreams. You do great work and all the best get blocked from time to time. Remember who you do this for - yourself first - and your creativity will flow in its time. Thank you for the templates and the layout inspiration. Blessings to you and Peace!
cute shoes! designing under pressure is never fun….. we often make things harder than they need to be! relax & let the creativity flow when it flows!!!!
Awww Jen, you know I would miss ya for sure! Thank god we’re best friends and will keep in touch no matter what (huggs) Take all the time you need! Love ya chickie!
Oh and great shoes! Love ‘em!
Of course Id miss your designs! But we all need out breaks maybe in a month or two the mojo will be back and better then ever!
I would miss you……but you have to do what you need to do for yourself and your family. I am just getting the hang of Photoshop so…………I would really miss you.
I would miss you! I like your templates you share with us very much!
I would miss your designs, heck I DO miss them, cause not I have to buy them and that means I have to wait a while sometimes
