Kim,

Welcome to the forum!

You're also a person after my own heart! I understand how you feel totally. Every year at vacation time my wife and I engage in a lengthy discussion over my wanting to bring my french easel with me to the beach. She doesn't buy the fact that my reason for bringing it is because it is attached to my umbrella.

I do have to take a moment from time to time to remind myself of what's realy important in life. I have found myself over the past few years spending less time with friends because "I could spend the time painting". I think maybe it's a little more difficult for those of us who are not in the business full time and are working diligently to get there. Not only about being in it full time but producing quality work also, which is really what get's us there anyway (now I'm sounding repetitive).

Again, welcome.
