Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow. . .

Have you ever heard the sayings, "Too many irons in the fire" or "I have too much on my plate" ? I have heard those sayings my entire life, because I want to do SO much and attempt it. I want to help those I love, work on something with friends, try a new thing, and still be a wife, a mommy, a friend, a cook, a seamstress. . . . the list goes on and on.
   Well, I have come to the conclusion I have TOO many irons in the fire AND TOO much on my plate. I am starting a new teaching position at a local community college this fall, working on the Hospitality Committee for our PTA, and I am also heavily involved  in a local musical production as a fund raiser for disabled citizens. Unfortunately, because of these new chapters in my life and my family's life, somethings that I do are going to have to be put on the back burner for a while. One of them, sadly, is my regular postings on Tuesday here at Sew Homegrown. When Jessica asked me to start posting regularly, I was excited to do so, but at the time, I did not have the responsibilities I listed above.
   I need to focus my creative energies on my family, my new job, and the musical production that will benefit some wonderful and amazing people. I will still pop in every now and again with something crafty and fun, that I think you may enjoy, but for now, I need to turn Tuesdays back to Jessica.

   Enjoy your Tuesday,

Heaps and Heaps of Love,

Shannon
