I am writing this from my office (during my lunch break) as my Internet connection at home is pants right now. I can't log on to Blog or email - I only seem to abe able to access the Fibrearts Mixed Media site. Through that I have been able to read several blogs and came across the 'Blogging Without Obligation' Logo. Investigating that further has made me decide to add it to my blog! - I hope that has worked today as I can't view pics here at work.
The reason I decided to add the logo is because I agree so much with the sentiments behind it. I really don't feel like communicating every day at present and when I do it is so depressing!! (excuse the pun!!) Every little thing is irritating me these days - the lack of Internet, the lack of creative inspiration, the fact that I am permanently tired, the 'pretend' sympathy I get from some friends/relatives, the lack of encouragement and enthusiasm, the self loathing etc etc.
ENOUGH you cry.
A year ago this blog was exciting, creative and I hope inspirational - ANNA COME BACK!!!!! Where are you?

Oh Anna is in there, Anna just needs some fallow time i think. Letting the fields rest is a good and necessary thing, spring will come and so will the new growth. Hang in there, Anna-babe!
Sounds like your muse maybe took your good-energy fairy on an excursion. They'll come home with lots of excitement and great new stories to tell from their journey :-) Hope its soon though, sounds like you're missing them a lot.
I know this sounds like a qliche but i think the weather and turning back the clocks has ahd a big effect on me, and maybe you too. I am convinced that they really have an effect. lets hope we can think of a way to cheer ourselves up. Thinking of you.
Anna I'm sure you're still there, just a bit lost at the moment. Can you take any of the pressure off in any way? I've struggled in the past and there will be a way thro. Maybe find a way to just "Be" for a while. You are a fine artist and I for one hope that you will soon feel a bit better.
anna, life is 'just happening' for you at the moment and once everything calms down the creative juices will just OOZE so take a step back and chill ... from one who's going through it too.

Anna - I'm sorry you're having such a hard time. It seems like the blogging fiber community supports you and I think everyone has given good advice. Take a deep breath and try to relax a bit - don't be so hard on yourself. I really have enjoyed your blog and think you are a wonderful artist.
Anna - I can understand how you may feel. I spent a good part of this year in a serious funk. Do what you need to do to take care of yourself - the rest will take care of itself.
Anna, you need to put yourself first for a while and look after yourself! Agree with Carol, I think this time of year can be really depressing which doesn't help when you're feeling low. Take care. G x
Oh Anna, don't be depressed, there are so many people that love you're work. Hang in there girl! Take you're time, we'll be there when you are over this again, supporting you.....and still loving you're work! Look at the comments you get, there are so many people who are wishing you all the best!!!
