Summary
Hey everyone, Kristin Marts here - and I'm DEclutterIZING! That’s my word for decluttering and organizing, and it's pretty freaking difficult. My current main area of focus has been my overload of art and creative supplies.
Are you the kind of person who loves being creative, but finds yourself with a ton of started projects and even more unfinished ones? I’ve been blaming my unfinished projects on my ADHD, but with my creative space in disarray, I’ve also realized how much this disharmony in my space keeps me out of the harmony I need to fully connect and engage in creative activity! Well, yeah, there’s that. AND - it’s also like I’m on a constant date with some guy named Justin Case… you know, just in case? If you’re also like me, you have a tough time keeping yourself from hoarding supplies, because, “you never know when you might need it! AMIRITE?!?!?” but apparently not! If I cannot remember I have it, cannot find it, or worse, find it broken at the bottom of a pile, why the hell am I letting the things live rent-free in my house taking up valuable creative and zen space?
I’m ready to start finishing - finishing all the fun incomplete projects I have been uncovering. I recently found a picture frame with six insets containing my early photography work from 18 years ago. I was glad to find it and realized that not hanging it for me to see was a disservice to myself. Today, listen to my process and what I discover to help me along towards my goal of newly found creative space by releasing all the “What If” and “One Day art supplies!
Creative Challenge of the Week:
This week's creative challenge is for you to find any unfinished artistic or creative project and complete that art! This week, as of this recording, I'll be working on completing the final touches of the tea lights I made for my daughter so we can hang them in her room!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
