The Truth Is.

Posted on 18:14 by Unknown
Here's the deal, folks.
I get a lot (A LOT) of comments about how on Earth it is that I possibly have time to craft. To knit, to sew, to scrapbook.

"You have five children, where do you find the time??!"

Folks, if something is important to you, you MAKE time. I go to bed late. I give up naps. My house is rarely clean all at once (we don't live in squalor, either!). Crafting is that important to me.

And why? It is my outlet. My way of making sense of my life.
For some people, they make time to read. Others watch TV. Others exercise. I craft.

I am editing this post to add that it greatly helps that I have a highly supportive spouse.
