Well, my cousin wasn’t the only one keeping up with me by blog! I can definitely say that is motivating, but where does a week go? I am so impressed with some bloggers I follow, like Seth Godin, who blog almost every day…how does he do that? Each one is interesting and seems relevant, somehow. Impressive.

Habits. I always hated them and thought I could outrun them. Not. They have caught up in a myriad of ways. Like the teeth I hated to floss have now decided they may leave the premises before I am done with them. Or the back exercises I didn’t think were necessary or sit ups to strengthen my core…which now resembles that of an old apple left lying by the side of the road. Could be better.

Glass half full, things could be worse and it isn’t too late to improve my chances, but everything takes the form of routine and habits. When did I decide that creative people don’t need routines? Writers write every day, usually at the same time. Painters paint, not only when the mood strikes. And people everywhere are flossing and taking their vitamins and doing their crunches. C’mon girl, get with the program and live!
