This has happened to me many times - taking on too much - not the bread actually overflowing the pan. Well, now that I say that - it has happened once or twice. When life gets to be overwhelming, I usually take a walk, or take some deep breaths, but usually I just pray. I remind myself what’s important in life: home, family, faith and try not to dwell on the immediate issues or problems that I’m facing. By the way, LOVE the outfit. It’s Fab!!!!!

I'm a great one for biting off more than I can chew. I can so relate! For instance, instead of sticking with projects that I can complete easily, I will tackle something difficult (like a whole quilt instead of a potholder, like an afghan with an intricate pattern I can't memorize, like a tailored jacket instead of a robe). Then I struggle to finish whatever it is and the gratification for a job well done is elusive. But yes, things have a way of turning out well, don't they? And if we don't stretch ourselves, we don't learn. Oh -- and then on one of your busiest days your bread ran over. It was just a symbol of blessedness, but you didn't see it that way initially. I can relate to how that felt, too. "I can't do anything right!" I would have wailed. But enough about all this. You must tell about your beautiful "Ode to Dior" project. I love it! Did you make it for yourself? Was the class a success for you? Would you do it again? Oh yes! I’m a great one for biting off more than I can chew. I can so relate!
