The room’s looking lovely! And as for the balance thing – I hear you! It’s a struggle. No matter how busy I am, though, I try to make sure to squeeze in some “me-time” everyday. Taking an hour to read, make dinner, catch up with a friend – it makes such a difference!
That’s a good rule to live by– having a little “me”-time, no matter how busy, every day. It’s the first thing to go out the window when other stuff comes up, but to me, it’s the most important time of day.
Wow, that’s kinda creepy we both wrote such similar posts. (And I swear I didn’t read yours before posting mine!) Must have something to do with how the stars are aligned.
I am not a Libra, but I can relate so much with the need for balance. My to-do list looks eerily similar to yours this weekend, right down to the car wash, but then I said “forget it,” and went to the zoo instead. It was nice, but I’m starting to feel the lack of balance in my bones. Or something.
First of all, I love your dog, your arm chair, and that you hang your necklaces on your lamp. Second of all, I can vouch for The Doctor’s Wife if you haven’t already read it. It will keep you reading until the last page.
I’m not a libra, but I’m definitely one of those that hates having a lot of free time with nothing to do, so they pile up a lot of projects/jobs/events and then suddenly there’s not enough time to do shit and it’s all my fault.
So yeah, craving a balance and trying to perfect that is a work in progress.
Haha! That’s funny– so many people search that term, and I wonder what it is they’re really looking for. Gets me a few extra hits! My mom swears by audiobooks, too. I’ll have to to try ‘em sometime.
I’m a Libra too! But my birthday is on the first day of it, so some sources say I’m a Virgo…eff that s.
I love your wicker bookshelf! And the slanted ceiling! I want a slanted ceiling.
And holy hell, yes, I need balance so badly…I have a million projects to do at home, I’m trying to get my whole photography thing off the ground, I’m trying to have a social life…so instead I sit on the internet and let it all pile up. Le sigh.
I like how, to this day in 2012, you so proudly display your giant tower of CDs.
Haha, I know. It’s a bit of a problem.

This is kind of cute. I just wrote about the same thing yesterday-
Gosh. This really makes me superstitious after all…

Your room looks like a haven. I has a jealous.

So, yes, I can relate.

Ooh, good to know! I wasn’t sure what to read next, and I have not yet read The Doctor’s Wife, in fact.

P.S. I love your desk. A lot.
Note…. just found your blog by typing insert witty title here and I glad I did!
One idea to deal with dllong drives are audiobooks. It keeps my sanity somewhat. Its just tough driving tons overall.

Thank you! I actually MADE that pillow! DIY craft blogging, here I come.
