Mondaily follow-up.

[ellenmillion]

Having declared today 'nothing gets accomplished' day... I er, accomplished things. I cleaned up several pieces of code at Sketch Fest, EMG, and my personal site. I changed the filter in the vacuum and then vacuumed. I made bread, did laundry, chopped wood, scooped the catbox, did some dishes, and finished two pieces of outstanding art. (Outstanding as in due to others, not as in fabulous... though I am pretty happy with them.) One of them in particular is a monster of some complexity, and I'm very pleased with myself for having finished it successfully. I will share once they've been approved by their respective recipients (and the canon board, in one case).

It also means I am cleared to start on another project that I'm really, REALLY excited about.

You'll see! *grins*

And a Guppy report:

Her two latest favorite words are 'broken' and 'ripped!'

In use: "My banana ripped!" "My cookie is broken!"

She loves the sound of ripping paper - which means I'm keeping a particularly CLOSE eye on books, art, and sketchbooks right now.

sometimes allowing yourself to relax is the perfect way to find inspiration again

Sometimes "no pressure" generates remarkable results. It's sadly difficult to take advantage of on purpose, though. :}

Apparently children *often* love the sound of ripping paper. Google it and you can find tons of videos of babies laughing hysterically as people shred paper around them. :)

Do you think that giving yourself permission to do nothing let you get more done?
