I'm not inspired or inspiring.
I'm not interesting....
I simple need to be kicked.
I get in this mind set, a simple blah mood
and it takes me a little while to shake it off.
Do you ever get this way too?
I have nothing in particular to even pin it on.
That's what bites.
But thankfully with a little time...
it will fade away.
Thankfully.
But I want to say hello.
And that I hope you are doing so good.
I always want to say how much I appreciate
your precious visits and comments ~
your precious visits and comments ~
Even when I'm a complete bore.
Plus I just have to wish you a wonderful day and weekend,
that they're filled with all the things you love,
and that you are blessed beyond measure...
hugs and love,
Dawn

Hi Dawn,
You may be feeling blah, but boring?? Never!
And you maybe not feel inspired, but it is always inspiring coming here!!
Love you the way you are, and
hope you feel better soon.
I have the flu. Hardly ever get sick so most grateful for that.
Just riding it out.

Hi sweetie,
Oh ,yes, we all know that feeling, -me too- not alwayes eaisy to lay it behind you, -but it will dissapear again, hon, and you will jump around to do, all that suddenly pops into your head.
As alwayes I love visiting you dear Dawn,-the images are very beautifull, thankyou.
Love and hugs, Dorthe
Do I ever get this way you ask?
Yes Dawn, matter of fact...I'm in that kind of way!!! ;)
It's almost 3am and I can't sleep...I really feel sorry for those of whom are around me for the rest of the day.
No...I shall not be inspiring today! hahahahahha
But just knowing I'm not the only one makes my little world much better :) Thanks Dawn!!!!
Boring is not a word that would describe you at all Dawn! Everyone gets to feeling a little blah once in a while. My advice would be to get outside and take a walk....but I don't take my own advice so you don't have to either! haha. I hope you feel a tad of inspiration soon...for your sake...we are always inspired when we come visit you!
:)
Yes, I know what you mean. I get that way, too. I think everyone does. It just has to run it's course and you'll shake it off. I wonder if it sometimes happens when you've got a lot going on, and your mind and body want you to slow down.
Thank you, Dawn, so much for all the time you spend uploading images from your personal collection to post. Whenever I'm feeling a little out of sorts, I spend some time looking through my collection and I always find something to smile about. And some of the best ones have been gifts from you! <>
I sometimes get the blahs, just like you. But never are you boring!! Thank you for continuing to share your heart with us.
Blessings,
Sheila

Hi Dawn:
Look at all your beautiful images today! Each one more wonderful than the last. I hope you have a great weekend and that you're back to yourself soon.
xoxo

I get that way too. We all do. But I always love coming to visit you. You inspire without even knowing it. Thanks for your wonderful pictures, and I hope you have a GREAT weekend!
Just go do something else. Something unrelated to being artistic. Self- indulgence is not a bad thing. Everyone needs to "shut down and reboot" from time to time. Mine came with a melt-down yesterday- freaked my whole family out-- but I feel good today.
Oh Dawn, you are such a special lady. Super sweet and everything nice. It is good to hear that you are not perfect. I know, that is not nice, let me explain myself. Yes, we all have those moments, but a lot of people are very good at disguises.Sometimes we put out there the best of us, but not necessarily the "real us". I'm talking about me. I'm a type A personality. I'm an overachiever, resilient, stubborn, perfectionist, motivator kind of person. Because of those qualities I do not allow myself much room for failure and I'm my hardest critic so many times. Sometimes I have been in a funk, like everybody else, but I don't show or want to talk about it because somehow I do not want to show my weaknesses. I feel that so many people depend on my that I can't allow time to just be what ever on certain days...but I'm human, not God. So this days I'm in training, I have learn to share the good and the bad and I have noticed in the process that more people warm up to you. Sometimes what we see as weaknesses can be ourselves been human. I realized that it does not hurt my testimony as a christian. I was fed the super christian doctrine for so long, that is not strength, that is a front. I have realize God loves me the same when sad as when I'm happy. So my dear friend, we are allowed to have those days, we all have have them, just don't stay there for too long, it can zap the life out of you. Just be the sweet, special motivator, the giving lady you are. Your blog, I'm so sure have made a difference to so many. So is not about been perfect, it is about been human. God loves this imperfect persons we all are. I do not want to be perfect, I want to be godly. Blesings, Marta.
PD Sorry for theLOOONG comment
~♥ HI SWEETIE, OH TO BE SOOO BORING AS YOU!! HAHA... YOU ALWAYS HAVE GORGEOUS IMAGES TO SHARE, THANK*U! YOUR LIL' STORIES & SUCH... BUT NOT EVER BORING, M'DEAR!
WE ALL GIT INTO A 'SLUMP' & SOMETIMES IT TAKES LONGER TO GIT OUTA THEM THAN OTHERS... BUT LIFE GITS IN THE WAY & I BELIEVE THAT GOD WANTS US TO REST IN HIS PEACE & UNDERSTANDING ~ TO SEE HIS BEAUTIFUL TAPESTRY OF NATURE, HEAR THE BIRDS & TO LISTEN TO HIS VOICE...
HAVE SOO MANY IDEAS, UFOS', PROJECTS, ETC... & SOMETIMES I JUST TAKE A WALK TO INSPIRE & GIT MY CREATIVITY FLOWING... IF NOT... IT HAS MADE MY HEART ♥ HAPPY!
WE ARE SOOO BLESSED. THANK*U FOR BEING YOU! OUR LIL' EARTH ANGEL!
HUGS & BLESSINGS, VIKKI ♥♥♥
Oh...Oh... not you too... I am trying to conquer it....
I have to say that I was like that for the better part of a year. I was going to school full time and also working full time. Being creative is my heart and soul and not being inspired was so frustrating. I was so tired and anxious that when I had any time off, all I wanted to do was shut down my mind and go to sleep. I think I'm finally through that tunnel and coming out the other side. In the last couple of weeks I've started my art journal and have done some drawings. I also made altered bottle art with shells yesterday. I guess you just have to flow with it until you get your groove back, I hope it's soon.

I get that way, too, sometimes. When it passes I always feel refreshed and exhilarated, full of new ideas to share. Your post was beautiful and I loved the images. Take time out to rest and enjoy the beauty of every day life for a bit. We will be anxiously awaiting your next post.
((Hugs)) from WV,

Hi Dawn - you are never boring - I so love the tutorials I have purchased from you and all the free images you share with us. I know what you mean my friend about getting those blah moods. I was in one yesterday and when I got home from work I just cried and cried for about 10 minutes and then I felt better. No one reason, just felt down. I sometimes think life in general just builds up - all the little things that aren't big enough to worry about on their own but accumulation of things that finally you just have to let it out. I got up this morning and feel much better and you will too in a little while. You are not alone.
I have the same exact problem. I go through cycles that I don't want to do anything and then I do too much!
My problem is I need to stay off the computer!
I think we all get that way at one time or another. For me, I take it as it is time to get up and do something,create,walk, garden, read......Hope you have a wonderful weekend. Oh and you are never boring.....never:)

Boy Howdy do I hear ya! All. The. time. I keep thinking one day they all will find out that I'm really a plain old person and have been putting on an act all this time..then I get better and feel like I can conquer the universe..go figure!
Take care and this will pass..you'll be good as new...maybe even better because you are knowing all sides of YOU..
Take care Sweetie!
Sweet Dawn :),
Yes, I think most of us feel this way from time to time...just part of being human I guess...I do hope it passes soon. Maybe if you go create just "a little something" it will help? Usually works for me.
Hugs to you!
Dear Dawn,
you're never boring and yes, I do feel like that once in a while -
it will pass.Have a wonderful weekend sweet friend.
Hugs,Marie
Hi Dawn, you could never be boring. I think we all get on over-load and then can't figure out which way to turn next. BLAH!!! I love all the beautiful pics in your post.
Have a great weekend.
debby
No Way, girl. I think it's the heat that makes you feel like yuck. I know I have the blahs right now.
Sandi
oh sweet Dawn even us amatuers suffer from this malady! I've come to expect some down time when y creative batteries simply need recharging, nothing much to do but wait it out :)
awww, thanks!
I suffer those feelings frequently. I just always hope they will pass each time they appear. You're not alone if that helps. ;-)
xoxo

Dear Dawn, You never bore, you are just having a graceful southern pause. Love, Penny
You certainly aren't boring, or dull....I think we all feel that way at times. Life gets overwhelming and our body/mind just shuts down for a while to rest. Be sure to take of yourself,
Annette
hope your little funk mood has passed. I love the soap, how fun! Lezlee
You? Bring? Nevahhhhh. hugs- Lee
I think we all feel this way sometimes. It's part of our complex femaleness.
Boring is not you, silly. Just by being you, you are inspiring and wonderful. I love you, friend, and soon you will be a little buzzing bee again, filled with fun things, ideas and inspiring thoughts. xoxo Lidy
Hello Dawn,
From all the sweet comments you have received will you please realize that you are not boring. I enjoy your posts and pictures. That's why I keep coming back! Hope you have a fabulous weekend!
-Danielle
*sigh* Yes, Dawn. Those feeling happen. YOU are not boring though, or a bore. I think you've just been a busy lady and have worn yourself down a bit. A bit of pampering is in order I think! You deserve it!
XXX OOO
Blessings,
Diane

From reading the comments, we are all in the same boat and handel it in our own way. You will be ok my friend. Really you will.

Marcie
Thank you again for sharing. Love these images!!!! Sometimes we do just hit a wall when it comes to creativity. Sometimes you just need to rest & refresh the well of creativity. Don't beat yourself up. We love ya no matter what. HUGS! Charlene
Everyone feels this way at times, but, unlike me, YOU still provide inspiration!
The way that little girl has her hand tucked around the toy puppy is so precious. Sweet picture.
Well, then, this is a good time to sit down with ice tea and read some of your favorite books and magazines!
Yes, I know exactly that feeling. I am just coming out of that same thing. Thanks for sharing this today.
It's never, ever boring visiting here! Your blog is always one of the bright spots in my day.
Your music soothes my soul, the colors that greet me are delightful, and your words, no matter how brief, always touch me in some special way. Whether it be some new inspiration or the happiness your creations bring to me ~ maybe some words of encouragement or even some that sound a little discouraged ~ 'cause those tell me "she gets it, she understands because she experiences "being in a rut" too!
You are a kind, sweet, caring, compassionate soul and it's just really nice to stop by and say Hi!
Dawn, you are never boring! Appreciate the low times because they make the up times fantastic. Well, that's what I tell myself!;-)
Hugs
Thank you for sharing your feelings, it just proves that you are just like the rest of us....except you can still blog to make US feel better. You are a very special lady.
Just so you'll know, you're one of the most fascinating gals I know in Blogdom...certainly, never a bore!
Dawn, you could never be boring even if you wanted to! I get those blocks too sometimes, I just feel sorta down and blah for no apparent reason. But like you said, luckily those moods don't last long.
BTW, maybe something you get in the mail today will cheer you up???? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Loves, QueenMarcy
I often feel blah and overwhelmed, but never so beautifully.
