The Weekend Crafter

So this past month has been a real whirl wind. It's also opened my eyes alot to the fact that I'm not wonder woman or super mom or any of those titles that us women who try to do everything label ourselves with. I'm glad in many ways that the winds of the storm came and turned our household upside down. It made me open my eyes and realize that I'm one person with a lot of responsibility.

But the two most important responsibilities lay within my family. The responsibility to my kids and the responsibility, more so, to my husband. I've taken on a lot of work in the past few months thinking I could handle it all with the kids at school in the mornings. I over did it just a little with everything I thought I could do.

With that being said, I'm slowing things down around here. I appreciate everyone whose been following this blog and staying connected over at the face book page.

Starting March 1st, there will be several changes happening. I'm hoping they're only temporary, but only God knows the plans he has for me at this point in my life.

So, starting tomorrow you'll be able to find daily posts from me Monday - Friday over at my author blog at susanlower.com. You'll find some arts and crafts over there and some book creations, I promise. Along with updates on my writing and tips on making your online business successful.

I'll pop in here once in a while and post custom orders created and other book art on the weekends as I used to do in the past. So, essentially, Saturday and Sunday's will be post days here on MrsChadT.

My etsy shop will remain open, but forgive me as I will not be accepting as many custom orders as before, and definitely not projects that have to be completed in less than two weeks from the time of contact. I may still be young, but burning the mid night oil is for tax preparers and those who work  third shift. I'm a mom, and I get grouchy when I spend all night making books and all day tending my family and keeping up with my day job. Yeah, I have one of those too.

I will, however, still be hanging out on facebook and twitter. Please continue to visit me, say hello, and tweet. I'll tweet back I promise. I'm not going anywhere, I'm just temporarily downsizing and refocusing on the areas of my life I feel are most important right now.

You know me. I love making books. I love the feel of them, the smell of them, and the process of creating them. Both with paper, fabric, and glue, and writing them.

I have a feeling it won't be much longer before I share with you news of publication of my first novel, and Bell and I have been working on a few projects together too. So please continue to stay in touch both here and over at susanlower.com.

Don't forget to check out Saturday's book creation, it's going to be a jungle around here!
