Be Creative RSS

I'm a freelance writer. For a while, I was content doing projects for my clients. And then I remembered a time when I was at my most creative. I wrote poetry and short stories and had endless ideas for screenplays and novels... I miss those days. This blog is all about reclaiming that.

Post Office Optional - My Beauty Shop Side-Track

I had this big idea that I was going to have a super productive day. Instead, I woke up early and got started late! I went for a run. I puttered around the house. I made a homemade breakfast. I even had this idea that I was going to the post office.

The post office was closed… the letter still needs to be mailed. Instead, I looked at my feet - I had gotten a pedicure about a month ago. I went for a six mile hike in my chacos and tripped on a rock - pedicure destroyed. 

I was long overdue. And even though the letter-that-still-needs-to-be-mailed is actually my mortgage payment, I decided it could wait. Nothing makes me feel as refreshed as a pedicure and manicure. It was just what I needed!
