Raige Creations

source: Pinterest At 7am this morning, the rain pouring down, this was my entire attitude.  I know I started out yesterday a bit crazy , but I eventually got it together and went to town to take care of a few things.  I actually got a lot accomplished! Today, I decided it would be a leggings and big baggy sweatshirt kind of day. I had a lot to do, but didn't have to go anywhere. So I decided to slum it a bit. (I didn't even wash my hair!) Well, here it is, almost 2pm, and I haven't crossed anything off my list! YES, I even made a list!! So I decide to at least get a blog done. And as you can tell, I was not really motivated to write, but I just decided to get it done, and that would be one thing off the list. Not the best attitude going into it.  This is one of many days I have had like this lately. Sorry, but I have to ask.... "What is wrong with me?"   I have had far too many days where nothing gets crossed off the list! I have several of those d...

Standing outside at 7:30 am, in my bathrobe, taking pictures of the sky. (it had beautiful pinks and sweeping clouds) Spaghetti and meatballs for breakfast. (trying to make use of the leftovers from the fridge instead of throwing them away) Get More: Ozzy Osbourne , Crazy Train , Music , More Music Videos Yes, it might be one of those kinds of days. source: Andrea via Pinterest At the very least, it will be interesting.  For a Monday, CRAZY might be the only way to handle it, a nice change from the unproductive, lazy, blah weekend I just experienced.  How do you get past an unproductive spell?

It has been so long since I have done a collection!  I think the aliens helped me do this one....I have been so out of sorts this weekend it could only mean one thing.... Aliens. Aliens Made Me Do It   Curated By: RaigeCreations ArtFire.com Part of my goal to get back to featuring cool artists and creators!  So, now that the aliens are happy, I can move on to other things. But I must say, this has strangely motivated me....See what searching creative things can do for you? Give it a try! Look at creative things, search silly topics. If you are in a funk, this may just be the thing to get you out.  What strange things have you searched in the hopes of getting your motivation back on track?

A new term for one who be a little less than sane or smart? Two Rows Short of a Full Glove. Perhaps! This was ME yesterday. Literally, and figuratively. We were on the road, driving our oldest back to college, to his new apartment. He took the plunge and moved off campus, mid-year just to make it interesting.  I had finally accepted this milestone of My Little Cuddle Bear , and was happy and excited for him. We ordered the futon bed and mattress, one of which would arrive that afternoon. (thankfully the mattress so at least he could sleep on it on the floor until the base arrives. oh the college days...) We got him some dishes, a few kitchen supplies, and a closet organizer, after much discussion and debate over the benefits of this in lieu of a dresser. His roommate had the rest, he assured us.  So, we were on our way to deposit him in his 'life away from home', I was sitting in the back crocheting my little heart out. I was happily working on an order for a pair ...

When life takes over, one may not get to post every single day for NaBloPoMo . Not in my world. With the heat issues the other day, then a day playing catch-up with tasks that didn't get done due to the possibility of instant frostbite the days before, and then a day of driving, how could I get any writing done, much less sit in front of the computer to post? The pressure of this challenge, however, is not the kind of pressure that makes me anxious. It is not the kind of pressure filled with dread, panic, or stress. This kind of pressure is pushing me in a gentle way. It is an urge to write, a task I WANT to do, not one I am forced to nor one I dread. Strangely, I noticed as I tended to my tasks, my mind was planning my posts. Actually, thinking of what I would write, even forming sentences and arranging paragraphs! This is a sensation that came to me in a previous NaBloPoMo attempt , and I am so glad it continues to be part of my days. In fact, while I was driving home ...

Yup, I am cold.  But, I haven't been outside, but I have been in the basement to store some old files.  Old files that we are not supposed to throw away for at least seven years, but now have filled up my filing cabinet so that I don't have room for the new stuff.  It is the first attempt I have made to take care of year end stuff. Mainly, I am trying to get motivated to compile everything needed for the dreaded taxes. But so far, cleaning out the filing cabinet is as far as I have gotten. And since under the basement stairs is a good place to store such piles of papers, I was under there digging out my bin of papers. The floor was cold, the basement cold, and my bin was jam packed. This lead to searching for a file box, which incidentally was full of stuff that wasn't files.  So, I had to empty it, find places for that junk, and then put the new old files in the file box. I was down there for quite a while, in only my fuzzy socks , leggings, and a sweatsh...
