I think we should all take a cue from Gillian Lee Smith and give ourselves a play day. As adults, we may have to schedule them — a play date with your creative self. I love Gillian’s work and her blog. Hope you enjoy this post and the previous ones. She’ll get your creative juices flowing.

“How to Be Sick” author video
Toni Bernhard, author of How to Be Sick: A Buddhist Inspired Guide for the Chronically Ill and Their Caregivers, has just posted a video on her website. I am particularly inspired by her use of silk embroidery and other needle arts to help in making her transition to her new situation. This is about 5 minutes but contains a lifetime of wisdom.

Time out for moving
I just wanted to let my blog friends know I haven’t disappeared but am taking some time out for moving. We’re getting a bigger apartment and I’m getting a studio/study room. I’ll be back with reports on art, storytelling and the joy of living by December 10! For more details, become my facebook friend and hear more than you ever imagined.
