It is no secret. I am currently a grad student. Yes, that means some crazy reading and writing is going on in addition to my course load. The flip side of all that studiousness and hard work is a distinct lack of balance. Being a creative person at heart, the loss of time to simply breath and create is painful.
The approach of the end of the first year prompts an examination of how things can be done differently. How can "I" be worked into the mayhem that is my life as a full-time grad student? Balancing my family, my studies, and my work has worn me out due to the nonexistence of time doing things that bring me joy. So, instead of dwelling in that space, I have signed on with Stampin' Up! (again) and have vowed (for myself) to create a blog that would both share the creativity that is a part of who I am and keep me accountable to nurture and maintain that side of myself that has been so terribly neglected.
So, gather your supplies and join me on this quest for balance!
