Is there a time of the day when you feel most creative?
I feel most creative while doing the routine exercise. If I am doing my weights routine I am too busy concentrating on my appl;ication to it to think about anything else. However it's usually when I am jogging or swimming that the creative bursts come to me. I am doing an activity that doesn't require too much of my brain in some respects so my brain seems to switch into a creative zone. Of course there is a problem here, I can't swim & scrap at the same time so I have decided to keep a notebook in my car & when I finish my swim I can jot down any ideas that came through, if I can remember them.
I do most of my creative work at night, once the boys are in bed. I have wondered about switching my routine around & doing my scrapping in the morning but I am a morning person & if I don't get the exercise done in the morning, it just doesn't happen, & exercise is important. Besides which, it may just be the freeing of the mind while doing the mindless exercise that my brain needs to be creative.

You sound like Tammy in that it seems that getting oxygen to the brain is the way to be creative. I totally agree with you on the exercising thing. If I ever had time to work out it would have to be in the morning otherwise it would get put aside for other things. I love the music you add. That is a really cool song. I hadn't heard that before.
So true about exercising in the morning...although I still haven't made that a habit yet!!
Thats a good idea to carry a notebook with you.
Yes when your body's engaged but your mind is free to wander is a great time for creativity. I feel like that when I take my morning walk to the train station.
