The trouble with blogs

I have actively been trying to get more active on my blog.  I had a great burst last month on my spring break from school and was able to really make some significant changes to my blog. Thanks to that excess time I was really able to make it look prettier, and more inviting for potential readers. 

The trouble is...

I keep forgetting to post! I have so many things happening to me daily, and I have so much to write about, but I have such little time that blogging becomes the last thing on my list.  So I am going to make a conscious effort to ALWAYS REMEMBER TO BLOG.

As I am still struggling to get through the end of my grad school, and only have a part-time job it's pretty obvious that I live at home with my parents.  There are many pro's and con's to living at home and today I stumbled upon a pretty great one. 

Spring Cleaning!

As a clinician I work with people to find their coping skills that can help them when they are feeling overwhelmed or stressed.  For me, cleaning has always been what I use to de-stress.   So when I am bored, or overwhelmed or stressed- I clean.  

Today during my cleaning spree I stumbled upon something amazing.  An old polaroid camera! As soon as I found it all cleaning stopped and my attention was on making this camera work! 

(I obviously started snapping pictures right away!)

Although I found the camera it wasn't working, so I will be spending some of my free time trying to fix it! Looks like I just found my second hobby.

Tell Me: What are some hidden gems you have uncovered during your spring cleaning?

Things I like

I have decided that from time to time I will provide a post where I put down websites I have come across that I find useful, interesting or fun. I think this is a great way to spread the word about great organizations, or websites as well as keep my own log of things I may want to revisit in the future.  I haven't decided if I want to do it weekly, monthly, bi-monthly or what, but I figure hey let's just write and see how it pans out.  So let's begin!

Hobbies

When we are young we are on stimulation overload.  We have school, after school sports, after school homework help, music lessons, the list goes on and on and on... Once you graduate college and join the working world (or graduate school world), there seems to be less time for activities you actually enjoy.
