I too am trying to figure out how to wrestle my dream from life…it has proven more challenging than I would have thought. BUT, I will not be swayed. Good luck on the writing–you can do! (chanting in the background…)

So funny to hear people congratulating you on feeling icky. It is really the only time when feeling ill has a positive outcome. Wishing you more heartburn-filled days ahead.

I had no idea you were from Utah! I’ve lived here most of my life. Are you comfortable sharing any details–where in Utah you lived, what brought you to New York, etc.?

Yay for m/s (sort of)! Glad you were able to eat with everyone else. Hopefully the next month won’t be too awful in that regard.

I love your writing block (hehe)! Sounds just like my practicing time, I try to do a 2 hour block but it just NEVER happens then. So lately I’ve been trying to get down there every time I have 20 minutes. Sometimes I go longer than I expected to – sometimes I just get started and then I have to pack up; but at least I’m getting some “face time” in. I’d rather really immerse myself, but ya do what cha gotta do!

This may not work for writing, but you’ll find the best way for you.

Congrats on focusing on finding some writing time. As a completely anal person who used to be ultra-obsessed with time management, I’d like to offer a suggestion.

When I was hunting for extra time for work purposes, I figured I couldn’t pull it out of thin air, so I had to repurpose some time currently being used for something else. To identify which time could be repurposed, I kept a very detailed log of how I spent my time for a week (sometimes two) and then analyzed the time wasters. It’s eye opening and you find out right away where you could be spending your time more productively. Boring and tedious, but I found it is worth doing from time to time.

Hope you find the time you’re looking for!

You go girl!

BTW, my m/s did not really start to kick my ass until 7-10 weeks and then it was UNBEARABLE.

Glad to hear you are feeling blechy…
