I&...Oh I hear you... so much to do so little time. <br />I've started scaling back on some of my commitments. At the end of last year I was on the committee for two playgroups, a community centre and a toy library. I had taken on too much. As of last night I am no longer a committee member for anything. Phew. My shoulders feel so much lighter. I've also started scaling back on our weekly Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05131518522010494497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-885942315861596737.post-18164437782497556962010-08-07T12:11:34.463+10:002010-08-07T12:11:34.463+10:00wow you do have soo much on your hands but as Gyps...wow you do have soo much on your hands but as Gypsy said, our kids won't be this little for much longer.<br /><br />you do need your own time though, going out with the girls & just taking a deep breath without hearing "mummmmy..."<br />hope you have a happy weekend Karen.<br />♥Cathiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13907149329120730070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-885942315861596737.post-46763609868814922982010-08-03T15:27:46.730+10:002010-08-03T15:27:46.730+10:00It has been a big year for you - kinder will be ov...It has been a big year for you - kinder will be over before you know it and there will be school and sports and brownies and so on and more and more and you know what?

Everything you make is seriously amazing, crafted with care, and with all of the other things you do, the crafty time is certainly well deserved. I wish there was a special time tree I could plant in my bck yard and pluck a bit of time fuit off every time I needed.

Maybe I wont get as much sewing done as i want, but i do get some done, maybe the kids will get to kinder late day, or have messy hair... We cant do everything, and we sometimes have to prioritise what is most important to us.

For me, I find I have less time to sew, and less time on the computer these days. It's not really what I want but for my sanity, it's what I have to do at the Little Munchkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15874033984918130699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-885942315861596737.post-28000865056636676662010-07-26T20:39:48.968+10:002010-07-26T20:39:48.968+10:00I always think its tempting to give up the kinder ...I always think its tempting to give up the kinder committee, but I guess its best to keep chewing!<br /><br />Look forward to seeing the ice-cream social dress in those fabulous prints.<br /><br />Lovely to see you yesterday. :)Lieslhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09392520536946879645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-885942315861596737.post-50166612903843782082010-07-26T10:31:37.124+10:002010-07-26T10:31:37.124+10:00Wow!

Okay, not all of my sleep (obviously) but with 3 kids, kinder, school, tennis, gymnastics, kindergym, dancing, not to mention feeding them and keeping the house on the right side of looking like a rubbish tip, I realised that if I wanted to get any 'me time' in which to sew then 10pm to 2am fits perfectly into my schedule. <br />I keep remembering that Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12904203848454803698noreply@blogger.com
