Back when we were discussing getting a dog, I anticipated the responsibility of daily walks as kind of a downside. I was so wrong. Taking time away from the dishes, the laundry and the kids every morning has been one of the best things I have ever done for myself. It reminded me of the law of diminishing returns - when you keep plugging away at work but you become less and less effective...it’s good to step away and take a break.

✨ It’s your weekly reminder that your creative work is important, whether it earns you money or not and you need to make time for it. What time can you set aside for your personal projects this week? Put it in your calendar and protect it - don’t wait to be given permission ✨

I was FaceTiming with a friend from back home and she wanted to know how my knitted lion head was coming along - so I thought I would share an update here too. I have finished the back and nearly finished the front - then it’s just the ears, blocking, sewing up and finishing touches to add like the eyes, nose and mouth. I can’t wait to share the magical process of blocking here so you can see it all coming together 🦁

I’m typing this with a very sore arm after getting my first dose of the COVID vaccine yesterday. I’m starting to let myself dream of a COVID free future and it is marvelous. What are you most looking forward to doing over the next twelve months? We have tickets booked to visit England in July and although I’m trying to hold it loosely, I am really starting to look forward to it. This photo was taken at Santa Monica Pier - I can’t wait for the day we see that Ferris wheel turning again and a huge line at the ice cream counter.

It is the season of wild flowers here in Southern California where every scrubby patch of overgrowth becomes a blossoming prairie. I’ve been enjoying sharing some of these beautiful florals on my reels the last couple of weeks - head over if you need a moment to stop and smell the flowers 💐

The call of the wild... do you feel a pull towards being outdoors at this time of year, regardless of the weather? We are a beach family at heart but I’m hoping that this is the year we get into hiking too - now that the girls are a little older and the stroller is a thing of the past.

I don’t know who needs to hear this today (actually I do and it’s me - but maybe you too?). Sometimes our creative or business ideas seem too big and overwhelming so we fall in to the trap of thinking through every possible scenario before we feel able to begin. It’s good to remind ourselves that everyone else is figuring stuff out as they go and it’s ok for us to do that to.

Are you a colorful dresser? I have always appreciated those whose wardrobes are a rainbow of color and can make combining patterns and textures look effortless. Alas I am not one of them - but I am trying. After nearly two years here on the West Coast, and with my London commutes firmly in the past, the navy blue, black and grey (once my favorite color!) are receding from my wardrobe and color is sprouting up.

Do you ever start a project with the best intentions then put the whole thing on hold at the first bump in the road? Or is this just me...
