Exhausted

I'm exhausted. Physically, mentally, you name it. I think it's because I let myself take a long break between MFA submissions, and I enjoyed it too much. Now I don't want to get started again--I want a real break.

So, I'm once again going to back off of the other things I expect of myself. This blog might be quieter than usual. Friends might not get seen as much. My bulbs might not get planted, and my shawl might not get knit (as much as I really, really want to...) I'll still keep some room for fun (tennis, walking Chloe), but no obligations about it.

Though I'm fighting myself here. I really want to sew Chloe's bed this weekend. But it is feeling more like an obligation, something that's just waiting to get checked off the to-do list.

OK, bye for now! Best Blogger Tips

I hear you, Bug. But you probably needed the break. Now it's time for the home stretch. i'll send positive vibes your way. I'm in the same place. I've done NOTHING mfa-related since handing in my last sub, and do not feel "light as a feather" anymore. I haven't even blogged this week! I think you need a less intense knitting project for breaks!

Make sure you make time for Sox-Yankees. Priorities, after all.
