I still love how you're doing your Aviatrix Medallion. I'll have to go back and pick out some fun fabrics for it. And I really hope that you add some ladies garment patterns in addition to all those awesome little girl ones.

But I think you are incredibly wise to think about what you have, and to enjoy it and be content. It's something not enough of us do. :) You are always inspiring, Julie!

It's not like I am an overachiever (anymore) but it's still nice to be reminded that it's okay to be happy with what I have. :)Beezushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08681686105971867703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5313541622001637511.post-41487108280046626492014-06-02T18:26:07.834-07:002014-06-02T18:26:07.834-07:00Hugs back and enjoy what you have for a bit.. you ...Hugs back and enjoy what you have for a bit.. you always have me to drive you nuts.. xoSIMPLESEWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13897074396716166040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5313541622001637511.post-20794867657812796242014-06-02T17:34:41.702-07:002014-06-02T17:34:41.702-07:00Admit it Julie, you just wanted to let us know tha...Admit it Julie, you just wanted to let us know that you're 30 :))) I can totally understand your dilemma, hope you'll be able to make a decision that's the best for you and your family!Kati from Kati's Quiltinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06629049955792425959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5313541622001637511.post-73215078718287329652014-06-02T16:09:28.671-07:002014-06-02T16:09:28.671-07:00I know exactly how you feel.

I thought my career was my life and then I lost my son in 2009 and I realized my career was nothing compared with the time I could spend with my family. Good luck in your future endeavors.

I chose to stay as I was and not expand into larger space. My business expanded anyway and I was able to avoid the overhead. I would have had to double my clientele to cover that overhead. You are fairly new to your location anyway. You did not ask for advice, but my experience taught me that sometimes waiting a year can make all the difference and keep you sane.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5313541622001637511.post-67123205041786881722014-06-02T09:20:01.529-07:002014-06-02T09:20:01.529-07:00I know what you mean.
