Who knew

Who knew I would crave simplicity. Who knew I would give up some of the control with a happy heart. In my crazy little mind things have been a little off for awhile. I could not figure out what I wanted to be. I have been looking to other bloggers and have been inspired. I am completely inspired from a long lost friend. I am also totally inspired from the women in the Bible. I love fall. This is my favorite time of the year. Fall will be my time to get my act together.

What I am giving up:

*laziness
*money control {precious hubby is taking this over}
*family control {once again precious hubby is taking this over}
*poor spending habits
*sloppy home
*lack of motivation


What I am keeping:

*my will to be better than I am
*my hyper organization
*the desire to be a great homemaker
*my drive to teach
*the fear that I will lose it all {keeps me on my toes}


What I am instilling:

*family night
*date night {super important}
*homemaking 101
*dinners
*happy home
*happy children

What are you doing this fall?

smooches,

Rain

We finally got a little rain. I truly love a summer rain. It smells wonderful. I was actually on top of things and got my hanging baskets out to get a good soaking. (Very Earth friendly ~~~ no?) We will be in the low 90's instead of the 100's today. I hope that I take a moment today and appreciate what a wonderful gift I have been given.


My summer is flying by. I had a list of things that I wanted to do. I have done nothing. Today, will be the beginning of summer for me. Of course my summer will be only 2 months long but hey I want to pack a lot in those 2 months. I will create a new list. I love love love to make lists. Saying that the first thing on my list is to the Blogger 100. Have a great day and get ready for the 100 things. I hope it does not put you to sleep.

How I love summer

We have been ridicously busy. Soccer, volunteer work, baseball and we just finished VBS. I have a whole weekend where I do NOT have to be somewhere and I am taking advantage of this. I just rearranged the living room and semi organized the office area. I have a huge list and may get to finish 3 things on this but I am totally ok with that because I do not have to be anywhere.

I want to sit in chair and read and not lift my head for 4 hours. When I get my chores done I am totally taking some me time and either read, knit, cross stitch, or day dream.

Where o where are you

Take a moment

It has rained here for 2 days straight. Instead of getting irritated because I did not want to go anywhere, I took a moment and listened. I heard the rain hit the sidewalk where my children walk. I heard the rain hit the big beautiful pecan trees that I love so much. I watched the rain fall from the birdfeeders and I took in the smell. Spring is such a wonderful new beginning. As I sit here at church waiting for my son to get out Confirmation I once again take a moment. The church is playing the most glorious hymns. You can sit outside and listen to the music and hear the bells. I hear birds singing their songs. The leaves are speaking to the wind. I am taking a moment. Take one with me? Have a great day.

The Original

Last year I had this little blog that I used to organize somethings in my life. I stopped blogging because I just got really busy. I am still busy but I still need a little organization. Here are things that are in serious need of revamping

* my blog needs a cutie pie update as well as friends
* time to redo the Chateau Peppermint
* finish school
* be the fun parent again
* lose the weight
* I need a new car
* finish a knitting project
* travel
* clean my closet and keep it that way
* hyper organized

I hope that since I am putting this out there someone will keep me honest. Let's start grooving on. I will stick with this for awhile now. Have a great day my darlings.
