The Beginning

I've been trying to figure out how to blend my desire for creativity with my need to provide a home for my family. Is there an answer? I don't know. Some people tell me that if you love something enough, you will be successful at it. Others say that work is what you do to pay for the weekends, when you do what you love.

This seems the right time to explore this question, since I found myself with the need to change careers..thank you to the economy.

I've decided as a way to keep focused (yep, I have a creative personality....staying focused is not on my list of qualities) that I will write a blog for one year detailing my search to live a creative life.
