City Slicker

I have been doing blog backgrounds to fill my time and learning photoshop elements.  The only thing is I tend to redo them 20 times to get it just right.  Easier to just upload them from Cutest Blog on the Block, but not nearly as entertaining.   A plus is that my background is original.  I have had a lot of fun and I might (MIGHT) do a few more St. Patrick's Day backgrounds to post so anyone can use them.  I would be flattered.  (even if they are ugly you all should indulge a friend.)  

I am reading again, ah the love of a good book.  I am feverishly reading Twilight.  A teen romance novel.  I am almost done with the first book, but there are three more so that should keep me busy and neglecting my responsibilities for another couple of weeks.   Have you read a good book lately (not THE good book) a good book.  Let me know what it was so I can continue to neglect my responsibilities and take my mind off of my mindless life right now.  

Mark is flying to Huntsville, Alabama on Tuesday for an interview. HUNTSVILLE!  You have to try your best to say it with a southern drawl.  My neighbor thinks it is funny that I might be moving to Alabama.  Now really, am I that much of a city girl?  Am I going to be a city slicker? I shutter to think I couldn't handle the simply life.

I would love to use one of your backgrounds. Where are they?

Day in and day out I am frustrated with myself because I didn't take the time to write.  I want to write but I find myself not writing anything but thinking about writing.  I love to read and make time for reading but I find myself often just thinking about writing and not actually writing.   I am not sure what will ever motivate me to write daily.  Being a mom to three tween/teens in a huge job.  Especially when one is being homeschooled this year.  I find myself saying things like, when the dishes are done or when the laundry is done then I will write.  Just let me check all this school work first and then I will write.  When it is quiet, I will write.  This could be why I never write.  It is never quiet in this house.   Today I have had enough.  I am not about new year resolutions but I am going to make the commitment today to write daily.  I ideally would like to write not just for the blog but novel writing. ...

Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook

It has been 24 days since I changed my password and logged off Facebook. I have logged on twice to see if anyone messaged me and logged back off. Which I am glad that I did because someone messaged me about math tutoring. The only thing I missed was if someone had had their baby. I was interested to know and while I tried so hard to stay off Facebook I did search her name just to see if she had the baby. Then I thought if she did have the baby and I don't know then are we really friends?   We are not friends by the true definition, just virtual Facebook friends. Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook 1. Selling of Rodan & Fields, LuLaRue, 31, Ketones or Scentsy.  I like some of these products and support you 100% and hope you do well.  The multiple posts on your product daily but nothing else in your life, blah. 2. Bragging. I love to see pictures of your vacation, if it isn't the only time you are on Facebook. 3. Posting fake news. 4. Making a comment I ...

2 AM Musings

I have been wide awake since before 2 AM. Wide eyed and well, not so bushy tailed. This is the second day in a row. Why?  No really, why? This is the second day in a row my brain refuses to turn off for longer than a few hours. It's like half my brain wants to party and the logical side knows this is not a good thing.    As a mom of three on the first day of a new school year I am sitting in the family room in the dark thinking of all the things I can't do right now. I am also lamenting summer. Today summer break officially ends. At least I am up in time to get the kids to school.   I am not excited for today. It has a few milestones that we can not put off. I will not drive to the elementary school for the first time in eight years. I will be dropping my youngest off at middle school and my oldest at the high school. Also the middle child decided to go back to school so I will not be homeschooling this year.   In a few hours my kids will wake up and ...
