I've been at this challenge thing for almost 2 weeks now and have managed to accomplish my goal maybe a total of one week! It's kind of disappointing because I had time most of the days I skipped to mess in my sketchbook or jot notes in my journal but chose instead to spend that time with Facebook. Granted there were a couple days where I really didn't have time but they were in the minority.
I'm not sure whether to try to go on with this challenge or to just forget about it. On the one hand, the days I did succeed in doing something artistic ended with a sense of accomplishment rivaled only by improved mile splits. On the other, there are days where it just won't happen no matter how impressive my intentions due to scheduling or priorities (ex. wifely responsibilities like cooking dinner and cleaning up the dishes, spending time with the hubby, or church activities).
I don't want to throw in the towel 2 weeks in, but maybe some compromise is in order? For example, if time simply doesn't allow then it's not worth stressing over. I don't want this challenge to take the fun out of drawing. It's relaxing right now; I'd really like for it to stay that way!
All that to say, tomorrow is a new day. Being a Sunday, I should have time without excuse to spend working on my latest project. I'll let you know how that goes...
