Fortunatly I was blessed with the ability to draw. I am artistic but wouldn't consider myself creative. Many people keep telling me I am creative with this or that, but what they don't know is that it took me forever to figure it out. Usually by trial and error. I get knee deep in a project and them something comes to me....and then I pretty much have to start over...argh. For instance I am working on a slideshow for my daughters 3rd birthday. It is just pictures of her and the occasional video clip. Well, I am almost done with it when I had an "ah ha" moment....grrr....back to square one. Why can't I get these idea WAY before I start? I know...because I always jump in head first and then figure it out as I go. Someday I may learn my lesson....but I doubt it! Pats Jeremy on the back…I totally know how you feel!
