A Creators Saga

The cooking timer is going off, the kids are screaming, the music is playing, incense is lit, and my water bottle is full. This is my resting level of chaos. Mothers dream of quiet and thrive in chaos. We are machines built to manage stress with empathy and efficiency. I am currently simmering on a new project idea while my daughters shift from laughter to tears and back again in their playroom.

The end of the year is upon us, and I have vowed to finish a project for myself. The funny thing about finishing creative projects, is that you are never actually done with anything. There will always be a hint of something more. More lighting, better spacing, more salt, more paint... You get the idea.

I shift from passions quickly, and so I must be efficient with my efforts, lest I miss the inspiration.

This is the first of many musings to grace this page. My blog is a dream without order dissolving from topic to topic, but I promise to categorize appropriately.

For those of you here for the mom humor, its scattered throughout, as I am a mom forevermore. Dont worry, the truly comical mom stories will find their way here in due time.

Looking to keep up with a good fantasy series... Yes, yes, you came to the right place. Blackburn Manor will live her for the time being.

And finally, I'll continue to post the educational and informational content pertaining to this weird boat of a specialty I built for myself. People kept telling me I had to pick one thing, but where is the fun in that?

Welcome to the chronicles of "Niki bullsh!t$ her way through life." I hope you get a kick out of it.
