Sometimes when the going gets tough, the “tough” shut down. There are so many excuses why one doesn’t get to work and I think I’ve pretty much used them all. It’s a dilemma.
Resistance is difficult. Anything, and everything, can block the path to working.
Let’s be on the up and up, okay? Those of us working from home have it much worse than those punching a clock at an office. There is no one to be accountable to, other than your’s truly over here.
We get the things done that need to get done. At an office, the work comes first, the house is left for some time later. At home, the house gets done first, and hopefully there has been a schedule in place for work. Does that happen? It should, but often times it doesn’t.
Who’s the boss of me?
But, hey, you need a pay check right? So get to work! Knock it off at the coffee machine and stop hanging around with that idiot, Mr. Resistance.
While I was trying not to waste time looking for the next painting subject in the studio, I wandered off to more beads. This bracelet is made of knotted Greek leather cord with more Greek Mykonos beads and Turkish glass.

After finishing the bracelet I tried, once again, to find a painting subject and leafed through a few travel books. I didn’t want to spend too much time so I settled on this scene. I liked the colors and the depth. At least if I move paint around I might be able to push away some resistance.

For now, it will do. The “boss” might be happy I showed up to work at all and won’t fire me.
