I understand completely the stuff about coming home and crashing, although my energy is often sapped by physically being up and moving in front of a classroom or dealing with adolescent behavior.

The after-work collapse has been the bane of my existence lately-- I haven't been blogging, and my only knitting has been on the train to and from work every day. I've gotta start having a cup of tea when I get home, or it'll take me forever to finish any craft projects.

My bunnies do it every few months, but they don't do it as gracefully or as beautifully as that. :)Nesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12891790511823931595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145849516288526306.post-14459438935245622352013-06-24T20:38:30.860-04:002013-06-24T20:38:30.860-04:00So awesome that you have found your dream career! ...So awesome that you have found your dream career!
