I'm so jealous

futuremrscrocco

of those who are crafty, artistic, who can decorate, who find great deals while going to garage sales, who see something old and almost garbage and turn into into a beautiful, functional, useful decoration, who can lose weight while enjoying all the same foods that I eat and get fat on....

Yup, I'm getting depressed as I sit here in my yucky, no style decorated messy house eating something I shouldn't be and looking at crafty blogs.  ::blah!::

Yes, all the run on sentences were necessary.

I get depressed sometimes too thinking about what everyone else is doing and how they are better than me, but really, what kind of attitude is that? I just take it one day at a time and come up with priorities. For me, it's been getting organized lately. Not the most crafty I guess, but it's helping. So I made a home organization book and I'm working on my coupon book now. I also got money to take sewing lessons for my b-day so that is next week. I just try to aim for one thing per week though.....put it on my calender, make it my goal that week to do during "me time" and budget for it.

It is overwhelming though to see all the great ideas people come up with on the internet though.....it could make anyone depressed! But smile, you are great too!

for me, i wonder how these other moms have the time to craft all these things.

i know i have the abilities to do a lot of awesome crafting, but DS keeps me so on my toes, i just don't have the time to dedicate to much else right now. Of course, if i had a huge crafting room, maybe i could get more done because i could leave projects set up instead of having everything in the middle of the kitchen table or out in the open where its a danger to DS.

i get depressed because there are so many things i want to do, but am just so limited by time (and funds). I really miss having time to myself each day, whether it is just to shower in peace, or to create something artistic.
