Learning the ropes

So now that I have this blog, I have realized how little I really know about making it look the way I want. There are lots of templates to choose from but none of them seem "just right". I feel a bit like Goldilocks -- trying out all the different things I find. I just wish I knew where Baby Bear was keeping his template, because I'm sure it would be "just right". I'm so torn right now. Do I keep trying to make my blog have the appearance I really want or do I work on some art projects that have been forming in my mind. I just got some Stampbord pieces (after playing with them at the Craft and Hobby Association trade show last week) and I really want to try out a few things. Unfortunately, this is the problem I've been having for the past year or two. I have so many pieces of art forming in my mind but I have a hard time finding the time (or justifying taking the time) to create them. At least I got one step closer to passing on some neighborhood association responsibilities. That was my one resolution for 2007 -- to find the balance I need between my family, my art and the rest of life.
