At least, not 36 hours/week or more. I do it because we need the income and benefits. <br /><br />My crafting I do for free, because I love it, and I want no constraints on it. I don't have much time to do it, so I would be very unhappy with a deadline. If I make something and someone likes it, and I want to sell it to them, that's a serendipity. <br /><br />Stephanie Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01613883248899266708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82981007971127798.post-70808830658509246192013-11-20T06:02:31.316-07:002013-11-20T06:02:31.316-07:00Awesome post!

Now that he's retired I hope he will finally be able to compose. I'm glad you love what you do and recognize that you are truly an artist. Sometimes admitting that you are an artist is the first step to success.<br />Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423024947233260195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82981007971127798.post-83978292168191860922013-10-30T09:12:38.368-06:002013-10-30T09:12:38.368-06:00And there you hit the nail on the head -- "it...And there you hit the nail on the head -- "it doesn't have to be for someone else." It should be for you and make YOU happy.<br /><br />I get SOOO mad at people who tell kids getting an education to just DO what you love. I love sitting around eating the proverbial bonbons and watching Brit tv -- but is that going to put food on the table. NO. We're ending up with hoards of children choosing paths with no visible means of support (except for the very cream of the crop) and society won't be able to support them all. <br /><br />Ah well...I'll stop ranting. I'm just glad that you'll still do what you love to do, even if it's only for you. And us ... 'cause you'll still show us, right??? ;-DThimbleannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03650582809426872051noreply@blogger.com
