Off & Running!
Well, I have been wanting to do this for so long and now I can say that I have at least put my tires on the road. And to celebrate this accomplishment (lol) I purchased a new and improved sewing machine over my lunch break (I'll take any excuse I can feasibly use). I'm itching to get home and give it a whirl but know with the kiddos that will be an impossibility until they are tucked into bed. Probably won't sleep too much tonight and that's a shame since I have to get up and go to work again in the morning.
Being a working mom with dreams of crafting all kinds of fanTABulous items can be disappointing with time in such limited supply, but I am getting projects done when and if I can, even if it takes me triple the time! Maybe if hubby can really come in this weekend for a visit, I can steal away a few hours (mommy kid free vacation) and really get cracking on some of these projects floating around in my noggin!
