Re-entry
A space shuttle mission isn’t complete until re-entry occurs. I am in the midst of my own re-entry. The Senior Executive Director of Studio Operations and I have just returned from a 19 day cruise around Japan. What an experience! It’s been a week and we are still playing catch-up and settling back into our routine.

How do you cope with re-entry when your routine has been interrupted? Personally, I ease back in. I do this by focusing on priorities, such as paying bills, laundry and groceries. Now, it is time to return to my pre-trip routine. There are priorities there, too. The SEDOSO is busy collecting and delivering my art to several exhibitions. We both attended a lovely, local artist reception at the Nantasket Beach Resort for an exhibition that included I’m Watching You. Next week Sunrise at Minot Beach gets dropped off at the Attleboro Arts Museum.

Rainbow Scrap Challenge

I like to re-enter the studio by tackling simple sewing first. My 2024 Rainbow Scrap Challenge quilt is perfect for that. I had a couple days between my last post and leaving for Japan to complete the yellow blocks. Now it is time to tackle pink for May.

I call this a successful re-entry. There is something satisfying about actually finishing and trimming my 2024 Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks. I have so many that are two thirds complete, waiting for the next colors to be announced.

What are your thoughts on re-entry? Does it come naturally to you or do you struggle to become productive again? Tips are welcome.
