pure bliss....

quitting my job and working on really starting up my business has been the best decision i have ever made. i don't remember a time when i have worked so hard and had so much fun. it's great being home with adella all the time, and she is so good.
i get up before her most mornings and have a strong cup of tea or 2. i open the computer, check on everything, while thinking about what i need to do that day. sometimes i start cutting and sewing before adella has made a peep, sometimes i don't start until 10. either way, there is something about owning one's day that makes me so much more productive than any kind of a schedule. sure, sometimes the daily household needs get mixed up in my loosely woven plan of creating, and i find myself doing the dishes when really, there are so many pants i could be cutting out. it's a small price to pay for the luxury of choosing the rest of my day.
money might be tight, but i would much rather be with adella than send her off to some stranger while i work for someone else. i'll never get this time back, and i am so grateful to spend all day with her and be there for all her firsts. i am so grateful that george barely batted an eye when i told him i was quitting my job and staying home. it has actually worked out much better for his hectic school/work schedule.
finding what you love to do and taking a chance to make it into a job is so liberating, it's pure bliss....and it's all mine.
