I thought I could do it...

Well if you remember back a ways this City Chick thought that she would be able to go into the work force full time and give up some of the joys of being a domestic goddess.  Well I am here to tell you that it is NOT going to happen.  I have officially cut my hours back to a mere 18 hours per week after only five months on the job.  It is not that I don't like my job.  I do...well I like it well enough.  It doesn't really feed my soul the way that it needs to be fed.  I thought that the extra money would be nice and don't get me wrong it has been.  It has helped pay for my new sewing room remodel and a few little bobbles here and there but it hasn't brought me joy.  I knew it wouldn't because I am not that kind of girl that believes that money will ever bring happiness.  It does make some things easier which can contribute to happiness but it is not the true cause of it.  It is my family and friends and that do that.  I miss blogging, reading and writing them.  I miss sewing and being creative. 

So my new schedule starts on Sunday and I can't wait!  I have made a promise to myself that I will start posting on this here blog on a regular basis.  I will show you all the new things that I have been creating around my urban homestead.   Thanks to all of you that have been supportive these last few months.  You all bring me such joy and happiness.
