Well, Happy New Year! You may hear from my voice that I sound a little more sultry than usual.
My husband and I flew to Mobile Alabama on Christmas day, to spend 4 days with his family, then we flew home on our anniversary, the 28th, and I was feeling really tired, and had a tickle in my throat, and I was sneezing a little. I figured I had allergies or something — but then the next day, I was hit with the Mother of all Colds.
Which exploded into I guess some kind of monster infection, and man, I was so sick.
I was going through boxes of tissues, my poor nose is all ragged. I had my husband go out and find some kind of softer brand because the Trader Joe’s recycled tissues felt like I was rubbing sandpaper on my nose every time I blew it. Which was, like, every two minutes.
Meanwhile, my fever would trigger a headache, which would trigger a migraine, and my ears were aching, and, oh, my god, it was just bad.
So finally on, what, Sunday I had a phone appointment with a doctor who prescribed antibiotics, and much as I hate taking drugs, guess what, within 24 hours, I was feeling a lot better.
I still sound pretty bad, but believe me, it is like night and day.
Anyway, the next couple episodes I have something a little different for you. I’m super excited to share with you some really special people from my Creative Sandbox Community.
These are just a few of the many success stories inside the Creative Sandbox. One of the things the Creative Sandbox is so good for is helping members tackle their fears, so they can do the big, scary things that feel impossible, and these women have done just that.
This week, I’m delighted to introduce you to Jessica Sanders, of Color Me Creative.
I started us off by asking her how she describes herself, and her answer got the ball rolling on the rest of our conversation.
A transcript of our conversation is below.
Enjoy!

Jessica: [00:00:00] Lately I’ve been calling myself an art explorer. But I don’t know. That seems to be what I’m doing more than I’m just, you know, making art; I’m really just exploring a lot of different things. [Read more…]
