So many ideas, So little time!

I know.  Everyone wishes for more time in the day.  We know there are only 24 hours to use up, but why are we always wanting more.  Most would like at least 8 of those to be sleep anyway.  But if like me, its more like 'i'll take anything!'  No matter what you do in your life, if you have things to do, they never get completely done - unless, of course, you live in TV land!

My dilemma is being a full time mum, and running a home based 'hobby' business.  I love doing both and put as much as i can in to what needs to be done.  But do you (finally) get to bed and still think of what else you couldve done?  Me, I lie in bed and design more things for milly moo - and evilevie.  Then i think of what the kids will be wearing, then i think i can make them more clothes, then i have to go to get more material to make them, etc etc etc!  Then a kids wakes up, and i want to bang my head on the wall, until i get a lovely cuddle from them :)  Also, have you ever wanted to wake your child up and cuddle them, just because they look like an angel.  But know that you cant because they will never get back to sleep?!

Most people have a dream diary beside their bed, but ive gone one (weird) step further, and have put an ideas diary beside mine.  This is where i can get it out of my brain all of the ideas that pop into it, and onto paper.  Mostly so i can remember what it was when i do think of doing it.  This notebook is full of scribbles of patterns, pictures of how a garment should look like, what to call a new bow, and alot of other stuff that is illegible because it is written in the dark and with a sleepy hand!  I find it to be very handy when i get a creative block, or someone asks for 'something different'.  Do any of you have any crazy (sorry) simple ideas that helps you through your designing?
