Another great thing is to get up and dance when you watch VH1 Classic and 80s videos come on. Especially when my husband is there and it totally annoys him because he was in high school during the 80s. And the dog joins me.</p> Yes, it is quite impossible to listen to They Might Be Giants with a frown on your face.

And kudos for the positive attention coming your way. I can tell that you deserve it...you inspire all of us. </p> <p>I would recommend reading The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster. Did you know that it has been in continuous print runs since it appeared in 1961? That is amazing! I convinced my 10 yo to read it for his project on a fantasy novel. Our whole family is having fun with it. For creativity's sake we were finishing up the scale model that we built of the Kingdom of Wisdom including such memorable sights as the Doldrums, the Foothills of Confusion, the Moutains of Ignorance the Valley of Sound and the Forest of Sight. I plan to re-read this book to my 7 yo this month. Very creative. </p> <p>Yesterday I located my pocket calendar to record the creative every day activities. And today I posted to my blog about a serious topic...the pirating of images on the site Polyvore. An artist friend has been afflicted by unauthorized pilfering of her hard earned artwork. All I am saying is be very very vigilant all you artists!</p> <p>If you care to check it out: <a href="http://treasures-found.blogspot.com/2009/01/light-in-darkness.html" rel="nofollow">http://treasures-found.blogspot.com/2009/01/light-in-darkness.html</a><br /> I would love to have your comments!</p> <p>Thanks for providing a space of playfulness and light Leah!

I’ve decided it’s more important to make my life what I want it to be, including play, joy, meaningfulness, peace, journaling, beauty, laughter, rain, music, children, reading, writing and art.

The business needs to fit into THAT. I don’t want my life to be “serious” and unfun and all about work. I want my work to be about my life.

That new focus helps. And I plan to post a drawing I did about Building Joy. A playhouse in the trees.
