Sheesh

{i need this notebook from here!}

Sheesh. Not the most eloquent post title I”ve ever come up with, but it”s all I”ve got at the moment. This week (and last week, and the week before) have been packed at work and at home. Between wedding cakes, website re-designs, branding meetings, and trying to squeeze in some fun, I”m wiped.

I got a bit of news last week. I”ve been asked to work full time, moving from 27 hours to 37 hours. It”s more responsibility, more opportunity, and a big fat blessing.

It”s also going to mean more time management, better scheduling, more focus.

And the question I keep asking myself is can I do it all?

Luckily, there are certain perks. Working more means I”m working with an ever-so-slightly different budget, which means there”s a much-needed computer upgrade in my future, so I can really start using my camera without worrying about the spinning wheel of death ending my poor Mac”s life!

And I”ll be able to take a little more time to travel around Europe and back to America a little more often. I was already planning my Thanksgiving trip to Maine and another trip to Houston and Salt Lake City in January when my husband reminded me we could also visit his sister in South Africa caca-niqueis over Christmas. See what I mean? Sheesh.

I still have lots of fun projects planned for the blog and lots of sprucing projects for around the house. I”ve even wrangled myself a coffee shop make-over project in July – which will mean lots of scavenging bits and pieces and stocking up on some pretty fabrics during our trip to America. Too fun!

This weekend I”m get a little reprieve as we head out to west Cork for a weekend wedding. Brothers and sisters-in-law galore, margaritas, and a few days to just breath.

So there”s my news, friends! I”ll be back tomorrow with the fun things I”ve found around the web this week and to wish you a very happy weekend!
