Deserted?

I have been feeling a little abandoned. My knitting is still there, a few projects are halfway completed, but the urge to knit has been completely absent. I have still been having ideas, that might someday become projects, but I haven't been knitting at all. Or sewing. Or making anything. I was feeling a little concerned about this, and wondering if this might be the end for me.
I am starting to realize that it might just be the time of the year. I rode my bike out on Sauvie's island and visited with the new tiny lambs at the end of the road, and I have been clearing out the winter mess in my grandparent's garden, and I have been walking or bicycling to school, and it feels good to take a break from creating. I think this almost Spring feeling has been inspiring me to look around at the world and investigate, and that knitting feels a little too wintery for me.
I am going to try to keep the ideas for later and enjoy the restless feeling this time of year gives me.
