Andrea, I just went back and found that thread. It's called Painting Moods and it is very similar. Michele, you even said the same exact thing about a slow music CD. Veryyyy interesting...this may actually BE a seasonal thing. OK, Im going to try my hardest not to paint the rest of the day. It's sunny and warm here. I'm going to go for a long walk, try Jean's meditation and make a big homemade dinner for the kids.

In all honesty, I really should stop painting for 2 months. There is so much to do and part of my personal way of procrastination is to keep painting. And it's a selfish thing because I get so much enjoyment from painting. Who wants to pack and clean when you could be painting? I have this drive though that makes me feel like if I take time off I'll fall behind. Fall behind in what way I dont know and havent figured out yet.

We are looking at a house with a pool and for everyone's sake I hope we get that one, but especially mine. We had one for several years and my life was much more in balance because I couldnt resist swimming every day with the kids. It was great exercise, it automatically created more social interactions with friends and the sun and water kept me from painting too many hours.
