A Crafter's Dilemma

I love being crafty and creative.  I love going shopping in arts and crafts stores and buying bits and pieces that will make up something special for someone.  I love walking around Home Goods thinking I could make something myself much more easily than buying it.  And I like being the one people refer to when they have crafty questions - note, this doesn't happen often but it does happen.  However, there is also a small dilemma that goes with being artsy.  It's called being suckered into making something because "you're the only one that can" when what you really want to do is go to bed early because you were up all night tossing and turning.

Last year, a guy that I work with graduated with honors with his Masters when most of us didn't even know he was going to grad school.  So, being a nice person, I thought people should find out so I made a little Congrats banner for his cube. Now I'm apparently the banner girl for every stinking holiday.  While it's nice to be wanted, making the same darn banner each time, is boring as ever.  But I do each time, because most of all, I'm a sucker - as we've already determined.

So Happy Birthday to the birthday girl nonetheless.  But if there's not at least some confetti on my cube next week, I'm going to be a grumpy girl!
