I think it well established that I have too many irons in the fire and sometimes it can be overwhelming, but I usually deal with the stress by adding a few more irons, because why not? Odds are I'll accomplish something eventually, and it makes taking a break that much more relaxing.
I am working on several things at the moment: teaching myself to play the piano, advanced certification for catechetical instruction, raising four children without losing my mind, mastering the art of a clean house, learning Latin for fun, and working through my ever growing list of books I want to read. My writing time is split between poetry, songs, novels, short stories, and the very rare play. I have so many works in progress that I couldn't even hazard a guess at their number.

Nice post there, Jes. Are you going to start a school for over-achieving?

Little thought: you might want to add a contact form on your website. I was going to email something to you and thought "it would be faster to just go through her contact form...but there isn't one. So you'll be getting an email. :)
