Something new...

For my New Year's resolution, I've finally decided to break this writer's block.

I haven't really written much of anything since JBU. Partly because I was just weary of the mental effort. Partly because I am lazy. But mostly it has been just an inexplicable mental avoidance.

I suppose a lot of it has to do with the shift in my roles: from full-time academic to full-time Mom. I love both lives, but I haven't really tried to merge the two. I earnestly love staying at home with Liam. I find it entirely fulfilling. I love everything domestic (well, I don't really like housecleaning...). I am content at home with my son, my knitting, my garden, my cooking. It is a fantastic life. One which I enjoy even more than school.

But still, I know I need to be writing. So here I will attempt to chronicle the going-ons of a homemaker. Journaling has never been my strong suit, but I will make a go of it.

So here we go.
