As most people are aware, people with BP can have a very creative nature.
If you do, what do you create? Art? Painting or Sculpture? Making Jewelry? Writing fiction, non-fiction or poetry?
I like to create mosaic art.
I enjoy writing very much.
And I like to dabble in jewelry making...nothing fancy.
I like to recycle almost everything I can and make it into a piece of art, but I have to be careful not to hoard...as I am a hoarder by nature.
I rarely purchase new furniture. I will get old stuff and jazz it up.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I also think my cooking as a creative outlet.
Painting?I love to paint the walls of my house..trying different faux finishes.
I write, mostly Poetry.
I dabble in doing Art from time to time when the need is there. I surprise myself sometimes as the quality of the work is like it was someone elses creation. It's scary !
I used to do furniture refinishing too, but no room to make a mess in anymore :-)
I'm ready to start a new oil painting that will be super huge and weird. I'm going to paint a dark landscape with the nebulae Orion CLOSE and bright in the sky..with the reflections from it in the dark water. Gonna be a big project, but ever since I first saw the Hubble photos, I knew I HAD to paint one. They are so colorful and gorgeous!
I forgot to ask if anyone hear plays music or is in a band?
Or does theater work?
Anything creative qualifies!
