Hiatus

It's been a while!
A lot has changed since the last time I posted... I got married... we bought a house.. I started teaching yoga more often and decided to go back to school. I have no regrets about any of these decisions, but what I do regret is that I have not found time to bring my hobbies back into my life. I still continue to make natural cleaners around the house, and am constantly looking for ways to cut back on chemicals in the home, and make the products we use instead of just buy them. I miss these hobbies.. I miss them so incredibly much.
I had told myself that I was just busy and that it was just a break, but each day I get further from my workshop the worse and worse I feel. I am my happiest when I am creating with my hands, when I am making things that other people can enjoy and are good for them too!
What I do not miss is trying to push myself into social arenas, trying to bring myself to a place where I can "market" myself. In fact... I despise the word "networking", and generally it causes me to cringe with anxiety and fear. The idea of putting myself out there, of meeting new people is absolutely terrifying to me, it does not sound enjoyable or pleasant in any way, but, what I have found is that the more I do it, the more comfortable I become doing it. So what if that person doesn't like me... that has absolutely nothing to do with me, and that's okay.
I'm not even sure why I'm writing this. Maybe just to remind myself, that it's okay that sometimes I'm not social, and partially to remind myself that sometimes it isn't okay to be mean just because you don't care for the situation you've put yourself in. That being said, I think I'd like to get back into the things I love, making things with my hands, creating things that other people can use... that do more good than harm.
More posts soon I promise,
I made some pretty cool stuff... or at least I think it's pretty cool stuff.. and if you don't think so... that's fine... I'm okay with that.
