I love everything you said, but you definitely are too hard on yourself- another thing we have in common. And I freely admit, I don't journal either. You're making art, and writing on your blog, so what's the problem?Sharmon Davidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222935617263973858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510577370628118176.post-68611328507682644322012-01-16T22:57:57.056-05:002012-01-16T22:57:57.056-05:00Hermitopolis!

My studio is my hermit hang out that I don't spend enough time hermiting and creating in. Sometimes I have tea with friends in there. Creates good vibes for when I am working in there. I love your Blog, Kim. You write well and are very expressive.Thea Beleczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17987139441091333949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510577370628118176.post-18779973285053587582012-01-15T10:45:33.561-05:002012-01-15T10:45:33.561-05:00Wow!

Thanks for all of these comments.<br /><br />I think my journaling will be mostly done through my blog and I will use my little notebook to scribble a handful of words.<br /><br />The hubby and I did go out to dinner that night. Very cold!! We had dinner in our favorite cozy restaurant then debated having a drink. We decided the best place to have a drink was at home!!!!Kim Hambrichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08784106179953299055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510577370628118176.post-68633225185484097182012-01-15T05:44:54.619-05:002012-01-15T05:44:54.619-05:00I popped in again hoping you would have commented ...I popped in again hoping you would have commented on how your evening went.

Going out where there are too many people....no thanks, I'd rather be alone! And, of course, you write so well and so freely....you've said what others would write in their journal....as it's been said already in the comments....make that notion of journal your own. Everyone is doing it (I can't seem to either), but do it your way....and forget even calling it a journal. Perhaps you are keeper of pages of Hermitopolis! Who knows? There is much to be said for knowing all the things you aren't, that you don't gravitate to and find unrewarding....don't do them, but let them help you find what is yours to do! You are charting your own territory!

(Same, I guess, with vegans, kindle readers, bikram yoga practitioners, followers of various religions, joggers, dog owners and you name it.)<br /><br />The mystery is why the rest of us, having tried or thought about journaling enough to know that it DOESN'T work for us, feel guilty about that!Kathleen Loomishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05930922068379938756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510577370628118176.post-73666580883578736532012-01-14T09:16:12.246-05:002012-01-14T09:16:12.246-05:00I agree with all the comments and as Paula said, i...I agree with all the comments and as Paula said, if you find such a place please let me know. I also have to go somewhere I don't want to go so a little corner in a bookish restaurant with a fire going in Hermitopilis would suit me very well. Something I have tried with journals is that I write things or doodle on scraps of paper (no pressure) and then glue some of them into my journal if I feel like it. It's your journal... you can do what you like with it. Enjoy your evening out. Your husband knows what you like so I'm sure you will enjoy it.ArtPropelledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15853722164314994360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510577370628118176.post-30998036028508575232012-01-13T20:54:29.660-05:002012-01-13T20:54:29.660-05:00Hermitopolis!

ALSO Colleen is right, this blog is your journal, and Marty might be on to something....Maybe Kim, you are a bit hard on yourself....Now we are two peas in a pod when it comes to journaling. I write, I hate it, I doodle, I dislike, I rip and trash it goes. Do you think these feelings are from growing up in Roanoke, or going to Raleigh Court, Woodrow and then PH? Maybe it is a southwest issue.
