Now…to be back home and find the balance! That will be the trick! Sara, I know what you mean when you say the more you write about simplicity the harder it it is to be doing it!!!
Melissa, I didn’t know you were in California. I have to tell you- I am on a mission to move there. What part are you in?

Ms O, those are some great ideas! Thank you for sharing all of them . I love the way all of you are sharing your thoughts and ideas here! Keep it up! I love having more writers on the blog! Keeps the conversastions going!

Ibirish,
Had to LOL at your comments, But they make sense in your rambling way…I love Clampton’s unplugged CD. I think sometimes you just got to let go and not think about it that hard. I have to unplugg so that I can come up with the creative stuff. THEN I can plug in and pass it on. I need alone time to get inspired. I think some people DO get more inspired around people. Despite what most of the people who know me might think ( And Ibirish has known me since I was 15) I am really quite shy and get burnt out on too much people fuel, on-line or off-line, It’s hard for me to maintain that energy around people. I have to un-plug or I drain.

Karen, I have always had my quiet time- but still to have the rest of the day plugged in- too much for me I guess. I am going to maybe just make a plan..see what I come up with. Part of it is the house stuff too. Sitting by the computer can really suck up your life!

Jamie, You know what, I HAVE to figure this out. Being unplugged was SO good for my creativity. I think it makes for being more creative and a better writer. Maybe its a part time little bit hre and a littel bit there but I am going to find that balance. IT just feels to good.
