Yes it is great Ursula and the money is lovely but it's not everything to be honest and although it starts off well, it gets stressful when you're doing it all day every day and there is no end to the list. I had as many as 65+ names on my list at one time and I just felt panicked. Hopefully I can just take stock now and relax a bit.<br />xxxSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14816580427584989752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235272631422518491.post-26940693552221300812016-10-07T21:03:48.212+02:002016-10-07T21:03:48.212+02:00Thanks so mcuh Rosie, I'm feeling fine physica...Thanks so mcuh Rosie, I'm feeling fine physically although a little stressed and anxious at the moment.

Sorry to hear you have health issues, I...Hi Sharon,<br />Sorry to hear you have health issues, I do hope it's nothing serious. It's perfectly understandable that your health and happiness should come first and I agree that when any hobby becomes a chore it's time to take a break. You don't need to give it up entirely if you enjoy it, sew when you feel you want to, and just give up the commission work. I did that long ago and I enjoy life and my dolls much more now the pressure of deadlines are gone. Life's too short and now your son's married, there's always the possibility of grand kids on the horizon, so go do what makes you happy! :)<br />Big hugs,<br />X<br />Xanaduhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06355069609640008727noreply@blogger.com
