I am such a slacker.
I really want to keep up a blog, like really. I want to hone my writing skills. There are so many creative endeavors that I want to do, but I cannot find enough time in the day to even do my dishes. That and I type like 500 lines a day for work, lol....so the computer sometimes is the last place I want to be.
I started this blog when my son was 4 months old. He is now over 3. WOW does time fly. Ironically, sleep was something of a luxury then, and 3 years later it still is.
So in a lightning-fast up-to-date story. I have moved from Chicago to Alabama. I am working from home as a medical languange specialist. Nothing too exciting but it pays the bills. I have many creative processes on my mind lately.
I just received a beautiful new sewing machine that I am going to need to post a picture of. It has inspired me to want to create. I was working on quilts here and there before, and thought I could harness my need to be creative through that, but I am now thinking broader - clothes! Luckily I do not have a daughter, which means I get to be my prime guinea pig. Yes. I want to try and design some clothes.
I also really want to start writing again. I was a poet at one point in my young life, I even met Ray Bradbury after winning an Honorable Mention in a contest. I am such a dud lately, I can barely write an email. So this is my new practice place. Sorry if it will bore you but I can use the practice. I would love to come up with something creating, but Jason thinks I should write a book about his journey.
Jason, as you may know, has been suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for over 5 years now. This has changed our life in so many ways. We are now more health concious then we ever were and we hope to pass this on to Ollie. Also, Jason is attempting to work his way into medical school and become a doctor. What a feat that will be! So, as if I have some gift of forsight, I so aptly named this blog appropriately. Once after my infant, and now through the long, long sleepless road of the wife of a hopeful med student.
Okay well enough for now.
