Thursday again

I am here in my computer class, so I have some time. May is almost over, Thank God. I think that May is always a hard Month for me. My Father died in May in 1937. And, in May of 1976 My Mother died, my Dog Prince died and I lost a baby at 5 Months pregnant. I don't really think about it, but I notice that May is a hard month for me and then I remember the things that happened in that month. So, anyway, Thank God that June is here at last. I have spent today working on the stuff that I will need in order to teach my class at Otis. Kind of like swimming through Peanut Butter...but, I did make some progress...and, I got to my computer class where I am blogging on. This isn't much to do with creativity, except that creativity takes energy and mine is quite low right now. I also think that the creative process needs stimulation..good or bad...and inspiration..good or bad...and persperation..good or bad. I am missing mostly persperation. The Peanut Butter thing, you know. The good news is that the ennui will not last forever...it will last as long as it lasts and then I will feel energized and motivated again. It has always been that way and I believe that it will always continue to be. Even as I type, I am (sort of) looking forward to teaching my class and sitting at my drafting table and working on collages and drawings. I think that I will take a tack from Andrew and do some dailies. I have to decide today, because June starts tomorrow and I do love to be neat as I go. Tomorrow is my calligraphy class and it will also be a celebration of Don's Birthday. I will go this evening to Smart and Final and buy a cake for his Birthday as a surprise. He is always doing things for others and not expecting to have anything done for him so I think it will be nice to surprise him. Hurray for June...welcome...let us see if it makes a difference.
