Happy February and Bowing to Peer Pressure in 2014: The Year of Learning to Simplify

I said I wasn't going to do it, but here I am. I have to be honest, the loss of Open Diary has really affected me. I didn't expect it to quite so much; I hadn't been writing much over there recently, but I guess I didn't realize how much I relied on having it available to me if I needed it.

I don't write often lately. I should be. There's a lot going on in my head that I could probably deal with a little better if I were taking the time to process it properly and get it out of my system.

Lately, I'm working so much that it seems I barely have time for sleeping and eating and giving a passing kiss and hug to my kiddos, let alone pouring out my feelings in my online journal. I want so much to free myself from working for a corporate entity. I don't want to work for other people. I want my own business (I have a portrait photography business that's barely breathing) and have it flourish and thrive and turn into something our whole family can work on and be proud of. But, working seventy hours a week doesn't leave me too much time for working on an extracurricular business.

So, hopefully I can use this journal to sort out my plans, and to process all the junk that's constantly running through my head so that I have more brain power to work on things that really matter.

And if you're a friend from Open Diary (I was crysalis over there, too) let me know! I'm having issues tracking some of my favorites down.
