I am kind of stuck.  For a while I wanted projects to work on, books to read, or just something to fill my time.  And now I have too many.  Too many, in fact, that I have a hard time actually accomplishing much on any one thing.  And, apparently that includes blogging!  Somehow I need to cut it down or strategize.  But I love projects!  I love having something to create.  So how do I decide?
I have recently discovered how to make blog backgrounds, and I love doing it.  I love mixing up colors and patterns.  At any rate, it gives me a chance to try something new and learn to be a bit more creative. I kind of think it would be fun to start one of the blogs that has backgrounds to use, but it isn’t a necessary project…
I am also learning to sew right now, and I am finding out that it is going to take a bit of practice to get it down.  But I have so many things I want to make.  I have realized that I am getting pickier about what I want, yet cheaper at the same time, which makes for a difficult combination.  So, I want to learn to make what I want!
I also love reading.  I can’t stop, which is why I need to cut down, actually!  I just picked up two more large books to read and I reserved my book group book for next month.  It is so fun to immerse myself into a good story.
Oh, I haven’t touched my scrapbooking.  I am so far behind that I am afraid I may never catch up!
But how do I do it all?  I have found that when I have so many things that I want to do that my days are a little more stressful because I want to get to other things.  But during the day, I need to focus on my boys and house.  So how do I find the balance?  Do I give some of it up?  Do I make a schedule?  How do I learn the patience to wait until there is time?  Oh, and how do I find the energy to keep up after a day with my boys?!  Any tips?
