Wow Pat, First of all, big hugs to you. It is odd that now is the first time I have noticed the Artist's way being mentioned on this forum. I have never read the book until this weekend. (A little case of "syncronicity" perhaps?)
Pat, I am a big believer that all things happen for a reason. And I believe that because of your experience it made you a stronger person, you obviously have done well for yourself and should be so proud of your children and the contributions you made to their success. I don't see the time you spent away from your pencil as time lost, but rather a stepping stone to get you where you are now. Determined and READY!
After skimming through "The Artist's Way", I must admit that I groaned at all of the journaling, and the artists dates. Not because I don't see the benefit, but because with 3 very young children who has the time!?.
However, after your post, maybe I'm being reminded to TAKE the time.
Thanks.
