I haven't been around much...and to be honest, lately I have't made much (nothing). I love this space and I truly miss it. Real life can get busy and not leave much time for interweb-life...but I don't feel like anyone should ever apologize for spending time away from the computer.
I think a big part of it is my new workspace. I was moved to a new office about 2 weeks ago and am now in a cube in a very open space, i.e. no privacy. Everyone that walks by can see what I'm doing on the computer and I don't want to get reprimanded for spending time looking at crafts, pretty photos, etc when I should be updating "bills of materials" and "collecting bid acknowledgement" forms.
When I get home in the evenings, I feel so tuckered and I look at my fabric stash and say "I'll play with you soon".
Today I leave for the beach for 4 days and I plan on recharging, getting inspired, and coming home with fresh new ideas, maybe working a bit on the ol' etsy (haven't sold anything yet which can be a little disheartening, but maybe I just need a new angle..?) and starting some new projects, take more photos, cook something new, get creative again.
I guess we all fall into little ruts and I'm just gonna have to dig myself out... with a sand bucket and shovel.

I feel you. I was stuck in a rut back a year ago with being creative and then it all just struck me back in the spring and I haven't stopped since. You'll get there. :)
