Time to Clock Out

Story Tellers, a collection of stories from people whose lives have been changed over this past year was my last project for the year. I finished it up last week I am really happy the way it turned out. It’s got a very simple and clean design with some powerful stories inside. It’s at the printer now and should be going out to our mailing list by the end of the year.
As I said this was my last project for the year, so now it’s time to relax. It’s been a long time coming that I get some needed rest. For most of the year I felt pretty much behind on most everything, just barely hanging on and getting things done in the nick f time. I’d like to say that next year will be different, but I’m pretty sure this year was supposed to be different to.
My mind just doesn’t seem to quite get the whole, “work is 9-5″ thing. I mean, here I am on Christmas break and I can’t stop thinking about work. What’s worse is that I’m actually doing some of it now. I don’t know why, but I just can’t relax. I don’t know if it’s that if I don’t do anything work related I feel lazy, but I need to try and figure it out. If not, next year’s work is going to be here later tonight… and that’s not good.

yeah, I can’t seem to just relax either. I keep thinking I should already have a job or at least be doing something other than visiting people this whole time. It’s not like I’m just sitting around either, I’m taking care of my mom… but I still feel lazy. Hope you can find a way to really clock out and enjoy some nothing-ness. Good luck!
