Comments on: blue is a nice colour http://www.jenleheny.com/blue-is-a-nice-colour My almost daily crafty/sewing blog where I show and tell the things I have made and a little bit of what is happening in my life. I am a hoarder - of inspiration images, fabric, patterns, and crafting books. I live in Australia and I'm a work at home mum to three great kids. My indie boutique is at www.redinstead.com.au where you can see the things I make.

The "change" doesn't come all at once when we are "old." I can relate to how you feel and I can't even tolerate myself when I'm down. On the bright side..... in 7-10 days you will be back to your normal bouncing, bubbling self again. Don't try to fight it, go along with it, ride it through, it's easier for you and those around you, trust me. I isolate myself, others know to keep their distance and as long as I stay away from others we all survive. Your hormones are in control and controlling you.....nothing can be done about it, hormones really do govern us women. I think your depressions are hormone related.

I think I found your blog while searching for sewing information. I loved your blog and sewing talk so much that I added your link- hope that is okay- I usually dont add people I dont know, but my newest obsession is fabric (I am a mixed media artist- there is a link on my blog to my art), and I just had to add a few fabric artists. I felt compelled to comment. I get everything about what your post just said. About withdrawing with your kids into a comfy bubble for a bit. I dont want to get into a heavy discussion, but Im sure you know so many people feel like you and withdrawing is something I also do. It is a struggle to NOT to do it and this time of year is almost impossible anyway. Just thought Id say that and good luck. You are an amzingly talented artist and I look forward to seeing your creations. HI- I hope you dont miond me stopping by. I think I found your blog while searching for sewing information.
