When you love what you do, you work till it hurts.
I can easily apply that to motherhood, obviously. I apply it to photography, when I'm working photography. I definitely apply it to music, been there done it.
Apparently, I also do it for my day job. Last 3 weeks have been paining my head, stressing out my neck kind of thing. For the last couple of months, I've been busied up preparing for an event. Booking, coordinating, almost everything. I definitely don't mind the load, but let me be the one to say it, it's not easy. I am looking quite forward to the success of this event, and then, there's another event right after that.
On a serious note, though, I am seeing a doctor about these ongoing headaches. I can not tell if it's stress or a building problem that's going to knock me down.
I've been working a job since I was 18, and never took a break from working. Except one semester in college so I could focus on a full load of units. (There was no break there). If I could, just for a month, not do any work at all, I'd welcome the opportunity.
