Mr Nike Says....

Note to Self

You're bored.

You're getting fat.

You have a whole list of things that you could do but instead you keep looking for new ideas and adding them to the ever growing list of frustration

The List...

• Start scrapbooking again. Use up some of those expensive supplies I have stashed away.
• Make some birthday cards to have handy instead of having to rush out and buy them.
• Carry on writing down my memories for the boys..make a decision, handwritten or typed.
• Collect some pebbles from the beach and paint them
• Start an Art Journal...you have already bought THREE blank journals and all the art supplies you need.
• Learn how to use the treadle sewing machine properly
• Finish off Alexander's Noah's Ark cross stitch you started 13 years ago - for his birth!
• Look for bargains for the summerhouse interior, junk shops etc. Then do them up.
• Clear space in the garage for the exercise machine - and use it.
• Clean up the bike, pump up the tyres and cycle along the beach road.

The excuses..

1.  I'm too busy doing housework, running around after the kids, taking the dogs out etc etc
2.  I need to find a job - gets laptop out, ends up on Pinterest or Blogger or Etsy.
3.  Need a craft space so I can leave things out.
4.  Dining room carpet is cream
5.  Need inspiration....looks on Pinterest, or Etsy or Google
6. Too much crap in the garage, waiting for OH to clear his stuff.
7. Easily distracted, phone notifications..blah blah..

Time to get up off my backside and start doing things. 

Then maybe I won't have time to eat anything.
