Am I burned out?

Well lets see! Am I burned out on knitting??? Heck! NO! is that clear enough?

Some of you may only know me for less then a year but I feel the need to explain who I am and what I am about!

First I suffer from 3 cronic illnesses that can kick my butt! The worst time of year for me is the beginning of summer. Mainly because I can not tolerate the heat, my body can not take the sun, and my pain level elevates above what I can usually handle. I am not asking for anyones sympothy. I am just explaining who I am. When it was told to me that others felt that I am burned out on knitting ~ it hurt to my soul. Knitting and yarn are my life right now and have been since I discovered knitting. I have crochetted since I was little but since I discovered knitting I have only tapped into the realm of yarn obsession. I might not be as productive as I am in the previous months but I am still knitting. I might not have as many projects going but I am still knitting away.

Am I burned out?
Why? Because I have decided to think before knitting? I previously would start a project and then another one and then another one and so on.... Noticeing that finishing was not getting done.

Am I burned out?
Why? Because family seems to be in the way of knitting? Well, first off family is a major part of my life. Kids, siblings, parents, partners and pets have and will take up alot of my life which usually means the knitting needles have to be put aside but this does not mean that I am burned out!

Life can get you down but I am one that usually does not let it but that does not mean that I am burned out!
