What activities are you currently focusing most of your attention and energy on?

One evening, while joyfully doing laundry, I thought: I could definitely be writing my third book at this time. And I laughed to myself. My grandmother’s words echoed in my mind: “Such is a woman’s fate.” I don’t want to agree with that, but in reality, I constantly balance between what I want and what is needed. At the moment, most of my energy goes into the “Lecler” and “Chocolate for the Soul” projects, which I truly care about. Together with my husband, we are raising two girls – a 17-year-old and a 5-year-old, and that in itself is a whole world. I have promised myself to cook healthy food, so you can imagine how much time that takes. Sometimes I think a day could have more hours. On the other hand, if it did, I would probably fill those too. I guess that’s who I am, and I’ve almost come to terms with it.
