I decided it was time to start something. I've always been somewhat of a makeshift but gets the job done multi-tasker - a true B+ student if you will. Someone who can do the 9-5, come home and be a wifemom, throw in some diy, have time to watch dvr'd shows and throw together a crockpot prep the night before. And while on most days I can maneuver most of that, it still feels like I could be doing more, I could be doing better. 

I wanna read more, see more, ponder more, prepare more and not cram amazing things into the last minute. I also want to have me time. But how does a FT working mom do all that, I thought. I don't know the answer but I do tend to find relief in just letting it all out and sometimes talking it all out to myself.. yep that's me, the semi crazy new mom ranting to herself every time my 15 month old flings his puffs to the floor and giggles. Which brings me here. Not exactly for that reason or in that order but I thought "hmm, I think I should give some creative writing a chance" - something I have no formal experience in (you've been warned) with the exception of teenage diary entries and some "going thru some stuff" poetry rhyme. So if anyone is out there, I am too. I'm the natad'or here, (in real life, I'm just Natalie) in an attempt to grab this one life by the bullhorns and make it a memorable one.
