Our multi-tasking abilities allow us to handle every facet of a business and, in life! The question still plagues me though, when is too much too much? Are we making ourselves work too hard and for what?sharnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17758592564957383605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620097535239092879.post-62036620960887272782009-09-25T12:13:08.072-07:002009-09-25T12:13:08.072-07:00Danine:

If these "younger" feminists you're talking about don't have health issues like you, than that's at least one mystery solved. Fewer doctor appointments, etc leaves more time for blogging!sharnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17758592564957383605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620097535239092879.post-23017737549124093452009-09-25T11:04:42.231-07:002009-09-25T11:04:42.231-07:00Part of it might be having a hobby/passion while w...Part of it might be having a hobby/passion while working the full-time job to pay the bills. And, instead of having a hobby just for fun, we're trying to find a way to make money off it... blogging used to be for fun, to communicate with my out-of-state sisters, but now it's more of a "business": I have to blog regularly to keep my readers, I have to blog about interesting topics to keep my readers (no more posts about my cats, since few people other than family tolerate those), and in order to get and keep readers, I have to read and comment on other people's blogs... Not like that's "work," but since it's something I "need" to do, there's more pressure than if I wer just reading and commenting randomly just because. Now I have to worry about marketing my "brand."<br /><br />I used to scrapbook (I have no time, but I do have a craft table!); to support that habit, I tried to become a Creative Memories consultant. On top of the day job. (I've since regained my senses and quit that.) Then there's the long-forgotten freelance editing business... the website hasn't been updated in ages (and sorely needs to be). But that "side job" is because I want to transition from working a 9-to-5 job to working from home. Maybe that's this generation's version of the "get rich quick" scheme... we want to own a home business, so we turn all of our hobbies, which used to not be worth mentioning, into "jobs."Criss L.

Maybe it's because they're still really young and don't have any of the medical problems I do, but where the heck do they get this energy? How can they work full-time jobs, blog, volunteer, attend feminist events and still have time to brush their teeth?xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07708038776840345609noreply@blogger.com
