*tap tap tap on microphone* "Is this thing still on?"
Wow. It's been a long time since I posted. What happened? I'll talk about that in a second, but first...
Today is a day when a lot of people plan and set goals for the new year. I guess I'm no different. This year my biggest goal is BALANCE.
About the time I stopped posting to this blog I started working a lot, like 60-80+ hours a week a lot. I was working on interesting projects and getting recognition for my efforts, but I didn't have balance. I wasn't doing any crafting beyond filling orders in my shop. I wasn't blogging. I didn't set foot in a craft store for months. Not doing these things isn't necessarily a tragedy, but these are all things I REALLY enjoy doing.
If I created a pie chart for how I was spending my time, work was a PacMan eating my life...
So this year I am looking for balance. I am looking to balance a job I love with all the other things in my life that I love. Too much of any one thing is never a good thing.
I am working on new tutorials for this blog. I love the sense of community that comes from sharing crafting ideas together through the Internet. I will also probably start blogging a bit more about my life, my inspirations, things I love, and some of my struggles and stumbles along the way as I work to balance my life.
Happy 2013 to All!!!

Happy 2013! Good to hear from you...
I just saw your blog in my bloglist and was wondering why the name didn't ring any bells, but I suppose you changed it from crafty spa ;).
Then I saw that some postings where really old ones, so I think I started followimg you because of tutorials ;), so yesss lookimg forward to you sharing more tutorials and hope you will find balance in your working life and free time to craft.
Balanced greets from Susan ;).
Happy 2013 to you too!! Glad your back:)
