Perfecting Imperfection

I haven’t written a blog post since SUNDAY!  I think that’s the longest I’ve gone since having the twins…It’s not because I haven’t wanted to – I’ve just been too tired to do it.  I was more tired yesterday than I have been in a long time.  Not really for any reason I can pinpoint…but it’s not what you are thinking.  I’m not...

So ~ how ya doin’?  It’s been a few days . . . but I warned you all earlier that this was going to be a busy week for me.  I was serious.  It’s been hectic to say the very least – and I have a ton of things I can’t wait to share with you!  First of all, though, I’d like to...

I now understand why people wonder how I can get everything done. They must think I'm ALWAYS as busy as I have been this week! I'm actually having an okay week - aside from the fact that I'm exhausted. It's going really fast, too. Just when I thought life couldn't move at a faster pace - I'm seriously starting to wonder if someone...

It’s nothing personal, but you probably won’t be seeing a lot of me this week.  I will miss you – I will try to check in…but I have a super busy week this week and it’s going to be hard enough for me to keep up with my kiddos and get everything done I need to get done, let alone trying to sneak...

While I love the prompt over at Cop Mama's, I had something else in mind for my Mama Guilt post today... I am part of a group of women that get together once a month and just talk...and eat...and laugh.  We don't really have a name, but we have been getting together for about 6 or 7 months.  I've missed at least 1...

Recently, I started using Twitter.  I’ve had a Twitter account for quite some time, but never really got into it much.  I’d pop on over and update what I was doing or check in on some of the things other people were doing – but I wasn’t really that into it. What changed my mind?  Three things, actually.  1) Twitter for BlackBerry –...

The prompt I decided to follow this week was “Friends”. I talk about it a little bit in this post, but I really want my kids to grow up being best friends…leaning on each other…looking out for one another, etc. So, here it is – I’m planning on posting a blog post sometime tomorrow (Friday) but wanted to get this up here so...

I've never participated in this LinkUp before - but I recently added the Networked Blogs widget so I thought I could use some love over there - it's kinda bare!  hehehe So - Here's the deal!  To participate. Follow the blog in spot 1 on Networked blogs. All blogs participating must have the Networking blogs widget so followers can easily find it.  Link-up...

No, really – I don’t complain much.  I firmly believe that if you complain you become more miserable.  If you just “suck it up” and do what needs to be done or fix what you can fix and put the things you can’t change in God’s hands then you will be much happier.  That’s not to say you will ALWAYS be happy –...

We had a pretty good weekend – minus the sleep issue that I will get into in a minute. Friday, I had my niece all day. Much fun was had by all ~ until it came time for me to cook dinner…then (excuse my language here) all hell broke loose.   So, I called her father and he came and picked her up...

If you are here for the party – my UBP post can be found – here! While browsing blogs over at SITS Saturday Sharefest, I came across It’s a Mummy’s Life and her Little Film Club.  My first thought was that I had finally found something to make me use my Flip Video camera – which is turning out to be a nightmare...

First and foremost, I need to apologize to The Boob Nazi ~ I guess I lied…I am going to PARTY this year! So – here’s just a little bit about me before I get into all of the prizes I wanna win…(I’ll admit that I’m joining the party because I didn’t like feeling left out, but the prizes sealed the deal!  There are...

I should be in bed.  I should be reading my book club book.  I should be doing laundry or figuring out what I’m doing tomorrow for dinner.  I should be sleeping (really, I should be sleeping).  All 4 of my children are asleep and it’s already 11:04 pm.  I should be on my way upstairs to wash my face, brush my teeth and...

My birthday turned out to be a pretty nice day - until my hormones kicked in and turned me in to a crazed woman (but that wasn't until AFTER the kids went to bed...so it's all good).  2 of the biggest highlights were that my BlackBerry went back to normal after being fully submerged in my husband's grandmother's toilet last night.  (stuck it...

I'm 33. It's not a big deal, really. I'm cool with it. I'm looking forward to relaxing a little and spending the day with Jerry and the kids. As luck would have it, we are BOTH off! Whoo Hooo! So ~ I'm off to bed (because it's after midnight and I should have been sleeping hours ago.  However, I would like to share...
