Frustration

I'm trying desperately but not finding much of that creative mojo I was hoping would spring forth with the new year.

To be honest, I'm drowning in work. I'd say 50% of my projects are things I have no interest in at all. Coding, writing reports, meeting with consultants at work. And another 50% are things I'm greatly interested in. Graphic work, writing, exciting projects.

The problem is that 50% plus 50% don't add up to 100%. They add up to more like 150% of the hours in the day. I'm completely overwhelmed and just spinning. My life feels volatile on so many levels and sometimes I find myself really yearning to let some of that out in a creative way but I just don't have the time.

Frustrating for sure.

Oh Cate I am sorry that you are overwhelmed. I know that there is no quick answer. But I do know that we must go through the fire to get to the reward. This must be your fire. God will reveal to you what His plan is in all good time.

Yuck, Cate!!! I hope you are able to find that peace, and your creativity, soon. I'm sorry it's overwhelming right now.
