Dealing with dirt and domestic detritus is no picnic, and there are times you might feel as if that’s the only thing you do. You can put on good music to do the dishes or set a timer to spice things up, but still…

That’s when you have to remind yourself why you’re doing all this: to have more time for creative pursuits. If you’ve subscribed to the daily postings on Create, you’ve already started devoting Sundays to creative endeavors. If you’ve not, please add this reward to your week. Creative Sundays: every Sunday take some time to play creatively.
