I started this blog with the idea of doing what I love. Focus on ways of living the life we weave. As I have been writing about a simple life + happy life I realized that I would like to focus more on doing  what I love to do. To me that is the definition of a simple life. Weaving my life in the direction I want it to go.

These past 2 weeks I haven’t written much. My youngest son graduated from high school and I was planning a small get together with a few of our family members. Now today the party is over and I am thinking now what?

Realizing that I have enjoyed the planning, cooking and decor making and making my sons day special. I am going to miss having something to plan. Being creative is what I love. Whether it’s planning a party, cooking different foods or even changing the decor in my home. Being creative is what I enjoy.

Now What?

All of my children have become adults. They still need me but not in the way that I was needed when they were younger. I guess my husband and I are becoming kind of empty nester’s. With the pandemic the kids are living with us but we are still living our separate lives in a way.

It’s hard to not be sad that those times of being needed all of the time are in the past. I will be there when my children need me but live a life that I love also.  One that doesn’t just revolve around my children.  

Being creative is what I want to do right now.  One of my dreams since I was in my twenties is to make items and sell them.  I have always dreamed about owning a small country style shop.  It might not be possible to have a physical place right now but I can have one here on the internet.

Most of you know that we recently moved back home to Arizona.  I love the house we bought but I knew in time I would change things up a bit.  Buying it with ideas in mind. Now is the time for change.  I am feeling creative.  I will be sharing each and every step with you.

Life Changes but doing what I love

I am going to weave a life that I will enjoy.  A life that I look forward to waking up to everyday while still focusing on a simple life.  Just because my goals have changed doesn’t mean that I haven’t succeeded in my life.  It means I have achieved my goals and I am moving on to some new ones and revisiting some old ones.   

I wrote a great post on goals please check it out.

Stick around and see where the creativeness leads me.
