Quarantine life:
So this is what creator life is like right now…
My uninterrupted pole time and quiet studio is no more.
My space is now filled with homeschooling (going awesome!) and everyone’s daily happenings.
Just as I use this space to morph into whatever I need it to be on each particular day (dance studio, yoga space, shooting/displaying/creating jewelry pieces, family floor picnics, frenchie and weasel belly rub station, afternoon rollerskating, evening movie theater, Mancala battleground, etc) my son now uses to do the same. Each day is different but these floors are always covered in something new; some form of craft, project, activity, assignment or task is always happening in this space now. The ebb and flow of different happenings is pretty astounding – I’ve considered time lapsing a day. 😂🤪 It’s amazing and wondrous the life lived on these floors.
Speaking of covering these floors – as you’ll see, our raised planters and pots, full of this summer’s veggies, are still parked in front of the studio windows because it’s yet too cold outdoors to move them. 🌱 (See Rutabagas joy of this situation near the end. 😂)
Merlin is still mending from his spinal surgery so there is this constant battle of trying to make him to stay on his rugs (he’s not supposed to walk on hard floors yet post op so I have a circle of rugs running throughout the center of the studio for him to trot along with our daily happenings 👍). Thank you everyone for your well wishes and for checking up on him – he’s doing excellent!
Spending this extra time with my kids has been so incredibly wonderful. Lots of hugs, height comparisons and making faces in this video (at my son, peeking from around the corner wanting cuddles 😊) and family snuggle breaks (I love those). 💕
Then there’s Rutabaga. Oh sweet Rutabaga. Turn your back for one second and he’ll tear the place up (I call him ‘crockpot’ when he pisses me off). Plants and ferrets don’t go together too well (at least in an indoor setting). He got threatened with the ‘crockpot’ name this day. PS: We’re vegan and I’d never – it’s just a joke. 😉
This is just life in the studio right now…
Sometimes ya gotta just dive in mid-chaos and make it happen! 💃🏼
So this is me, ya know, harnessing some peace within the chaos. 🧘🌸
How’s life on your side of the fence?
