I think that sometimes it is important though to spend time not actually creating, just absorbing and pondering and letting things swirl around in your head. I have the struggles with guilt too. It is actually a real enemy of creativity, now that I think about it.<BR/>Missing you...

The housework will wait!<BR/><BR/>Secondly... that your child is reading quietly by himself is fabulous... leave him to it, he'll let you know when he wants some distraction or lunch!<BR/><BR/>and FINALLY - get on with being creative. I love that you have set aside an entire day for this. Have fun. Enjoy it! And begin something... it will be so nice to achieve something beautiful, and it wins over housework every time.<BR/><BR/>This is the first time I have visited your blog and it is lovely. I hope you don't mind my OTT comments!Jacintahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05574678278860427000noreply@blogger.com
