Now that I’ve started writing again, I’ve opened the floodgates of ideas. It’s enthusing to have so many! So many that I’d be excited to write!! But ... I need to focus on what I’m working on right now. It’s. Tough. :’D It’s reassuring, actually. All those years I avoided writing, I had convinced myself it was because my ideas were dumb or I wasn’t good enough to make them work. Coming back to it? I’m so excited to write! To work on projects!! This is the wonder I’ve been missing!!! The joy of creating!!!! I’m so much happier, now that I've gotten over that hurdle of insecurity.

(aww, thanks! Cheers to creating!!)

It's snowing now & that always brings a sense of calm ... & a memory of an epic snowball fight! ( Disclaimer: epic may be due to being a plucky kid with a big imagination, lol. ) My childhood home had no snow, but it did have a little pop-up fair for winter. The Sawdust Festival. Out in the woods, on a long stretch of road, there would be a ramshackle stacks of wooden shacks with a faded, painted fence. They had merchant stalls, food vendors, and a stage - all for local creators, volunteers. My family visited it every year.

That year, I finally got the courage to go in the snowbox ( some mix between a sandbox & a greenhouse. It was man-made, closest I ever got to snow before we moved to the mountains. It was a bit magical ... still is. ) Some kids built snowmen, some snow angels, and some started snowball fights. I was making a sad little snowman when I overheard some bullies deciding I'd be the perfect target - and, in a fit of 12 year old spite, I decided that they wouldn't take me down without a fight!! The bullies got most of the kids in the snowbox against me, alone, but I dodged & fired back & pulled little action hero stunts. I was the last kid standing! Took them all down! Triumph!! Lol, it was one of the few times I felt truly epic ... still got a mean snowball fight streak ;P
