March Giveaway
 Sometimes an event happens that saps your energy and leaves you with the inability to focus on anything larger than just getting through the day. It can happen at any time - after the birth of a baby, a particularly stressful day at work, or a fight with a loved one. Such an event happened to me in February - I was dealing with a particularly nasty brand of bureaucracy. Not to get in to the details, but I was so consumed with trying to deal with this one event that I didn't feel any creative energy. No writing, no crafting, just existing. To unwind one Saturday I accepted an invitation made by my friend Kim (and studio owner) to join one of her yoga classes at Dartmouth's Breathing Space Yoga Studio and found myself in a yoga pose, suddenly sobbing uncontrollably. Obviously I had been bottling up a significant amount of stress and negativity.
Luckily, we had a vacation booked for the last week of February, which I resisted because I was so busy, too busy to see the big picture. But, I boarded the plane, spent a week in Florida with my family visiting my in-laws, which gave me time to rest and gain perspective.
So, with Spring on the horizon, we have some really fantastic contests and promotions in the works to help us and help you stretch your creativity...but for now, I'd like to announce our March giveaway. For all comments received on the blog in March, you will be entered into a random draw to win a copy of a favourite book of mine, written by Amanda Blake Soule, a woman who inspires me to stretch my own creativity: Handmade Home.
Good Luck!
