My crafts aren’t the best like many YouTube and bloggers
that have many viewers and make such wonderful things but I try my best. I began to craft more
some years ago mainly hair accessories at first. It was a way at the time to
use my creative juices aside my writing. As you all know as I’ve put up here I got
into a serious courtship in 2017 and got married but also that year I got a first
time real job not just here and there job and with it came many stresses. Since
then maybe almost 2 years I haven’t written but a few sentences for my stories and
it plagues me very much but because of a busy life and working I haven’t had
much time for writing but I miss it. But beyond deep down that creative part
has been squashed in a way and so crafting has helped me still be creative in another
way.
When I craft it allows me to get out of my head or rather only
focus on the creative part of my mind and not the bad things that happen. I’ve been
on the same job 2 years now and its been not so good for a long while. There have
only been maybe 3 or 4 times in that span I was happy while there. More times
than not I am anxious and stressed. I don’t trust anyone apart from my husband
up at our job, he works there too just a different department. Many mangers mainly
those there in the beginning but are gone now were extremely cruel and admitting
it is hard employees, customers and some managers had me in the bathroom in
tears after a hard day and mean treatment. I used to and sometimes still do still
get physically sick before, during or after work because of the stress and its
hard but the hours and money are the only reasons I stay right now but I might
be forced to change jobs soon as its just too much. Anyway crafting helps me to
step away from it and be creative and just make something that makes me smile.
So please feel free to stop by my new blog and check out

Glad to see your back on your blog :) It's been a while. I'm sorry to hear that you're having a hard time at your job. I used to work at a Stop&Shop for a few years and I know how challenging it can be. I'm also sorry to hear that you haven't been writing much lately- that I do understand and it isn't fun, but it sounds like crafting has been very helpful to you creatively. I hope this finds you well :)
ReplyDeleteI've just checked my comments and seen your comment and many others, I've not been keeping up with my comments sections oops lol! I'm glad to be back to blogging lately for sure! I'm sorry about your past challenges in your old Stop & Shop days. My stories are never far from my mind and I even have read over half of my manuscripts to my husband who is ever eager to delve into one of my stories and is begging for more stories to read lol! My husband Anthony also has recently bought me a writing prompt journal and cards to help get my juices flowing again! :~) Thank you for commenting and I hope this finds you well also!
