I am a repressed artist looking to express myself through sketching and painting (hence the title of my blog page). I like some poetry and truly enjoy listening to motivational speakers like Dwayne Dyer, Mariam Williamsom, and Louise Hay. The majority of my time is spent either the office (where I trouble-shoot software issues or design e-document systems) or participating in my 10 year old son's education and extracurricular activities (football mom's unite). I really need to work on balancing my professional and personal life; sometimes I feel consumed by EVERYTHING - "...who am I and why am I here?". I think blogging will help me achieve this balance as it provides an avenue for self expression.
