Update on what I've been doing

     I just wanted to give a quick update on what I've been doing, and what I'm currently working on.  I know the last time I gave an update; I had all this stuff that I was going to, and I was going to do posts for all of it.  So what became of all these grand plans for my blogs.  Well to put it simply, Life happened.  Between moving, work, and then the holiday's; I got burned out.  There was just so much going on haphazardly, and at the same time.  I was just constantly being thrown off course, and it's been a struggle to get things back in order.
     Some of the projects that I had planned worked well, others not so much.  Most of the smaller indoor projects have gone great.  By small projects I'm referring to things, like the Spray Paint project that I posted just before my hiatus.  While things like finishing painting didn't get done till just before the holidays.  That was also when I finally started picking up frames for hanging old calendar pictures.  I also more or less got my room situated in a livable order.  The rest of the house is more or less set.  My room was just a bit difficult due to the slope of the ceiling.
     The outdoor projects haven't fared so well.  Mostly due to the amount of work that needed to be done, in a short space of time.  Most of the work being seasonal maintanence too.  Also one of the cats developing a taste for plants has made things rather difficult.  As of right now I'm working on a landscape, and garden layout for the backyard.  Trying to get together a list of ideas and potential problems to consider.  Pintrest is going to be my friend for a bit.
     Now that I'm done rambling about what has(n't) been done, its time to move on to what is being done now.  I already mentioned the landscaping plans, and calendar framing project.  Currently I am working on a daily routine to help me focus on tasks better, and to keep me from getting overwhelmed.  It's still a work in progress, but hopefully I've made it flexible enough to deal with the curveballs.  A lot of my current projects are small, as needed things.  Things like draft stoppers, pillows, blankets, ect; its been rather cold here.  I'm also trying to cook more, so I might eventually post some recipies.  Anyways thats about it for now, gotta get back to drafting more posts.

I'm still around

     Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know that I'm still here.  Sorry about disappearing for months, without a word.  Trying to get myself sorted out took longer than I thought it would.  I didn't help myself any when I came up with all sorts of stuff to try to do at once, on multiple blogs.  Which is why I've decided to primarily focus on this one.  I plan on leaving "War, Lore, & Dreams" as it is, and may still post to it when I'm able to.  On the other hand I will essentially merge "Rogue Serenity" with this blog.  While I don't plan on deleting the blog; I will not be using it any time soon.  Anything that I had previously planned to post there will be added to this blog instead.
     On top of that I found several old blogs that I thought I had deleted, and will post re-directional links on them as well.  With that said, I'm giving myself a couple of days to get those posts up.  I hope they don't take me that long, but you never know.  I don't want to drag this out any longer than it needs to be, just want you to know that I do plan to be posting more.

Later,
