Balloon (A Colorful Promise od Adventure)

Balloon is an interesting word to write. I always trip on my spelling when I reach the double OO, cause come on, I just did double LL, what do you mean there's another double letter right after? 

And then this happens:

Balloonn. Ahahah

Anyway, my favorite balloons are of the hot-air kind. There's something whimsical about them. A colorful promise of adventure!

Wait, hold up, THAT'S IT! That's the tittle I was looking for and couldn't find! Excuse me while I go change the tittle everywhere I've posted this. Eheh...

 I was going to say more about hot-air balloons, but I've completely lost my train of thought. So here's my collage!

 It's a small one, 7 x 10 cm, on top of an old calendar card thing. Remember the old days, when business cards had a calendar on the back? (Maybe that wasn't a thing everywhere? I have no idea)

The mojo flow. Or something like that.

I've been crocheting a lot this past week. I lost the digital collage mojo, apparently. 

I know it's temporary. I just had other ideas to things to make and have been trying those out. Things like stickers. And bookmarks. But also, a crochet jacket. Or vest. Or something. I don't know yet, I'm just making the pieces. Maybe it'll just end up as a blanket. Only time will tell, really.

I have started and re-started, and gave up and started something else various times this week. On both the crochet side of things as well as the stickers-and-other-printed-goods side of things. It's been frustrating. I'm stuck at the phase of having ideas but none of them are good enough to work outside of my head. 

I've also been going back and forth about even having prints for sale on Ko-fi. Maybe I just should just go for digital content. I don't know. I have no idea what I'm doing, I just keep going and trying this and that. Nothing really works, nothing really takes off. But...

About my stream schedule

I'm terrible with routines, and yet I need them. I can't have a set schedule for too long, cause it makes me feel trapped, restricted, it starts eating up my motivation and mental energy. So, invariably, I end up breaking free from it. Desperately.

But then I have no schedule at all and I feel lost, adrift in the sea of ideas and possibilities (hey oh, there's a nice tittle/idea *takes notes*) and the longer I'm there, the harder it is to get back to doing something, until I force myself to have a schedule again.

Rinse and repeat. Since ever and forever, this is how I work. Dysfunctionally. It's not great, but I'm used to it. It's just part of who I am. I accept it, embrace it and keep going, letting myself have frustrating periods of doing nothing, without letting the frustration get the better of me. I call these absorption phases. I'm not putting anything out, I'm just taking everything in. The ideas are there in the background, percolating, marinating, or whatever you want to call it.

And what does all that have to do with my streams? Well, from now on I'll be streaming whenever, no set schedule. But I want to keep doing it at least once a week, so I don't completely drift off from it.

Dreamscapes weekly prompts

Starting this month I'll be releasing weekly prompts! 
The plan is to make a whole year of them.

 

3 prompts a week I think is a good number. Enough to have fun with and combine if you want, without being overwhelmed.

I'll be posting these every Monday.
(Yes, today is Tuesday, I know, shush)
