Hello. It's been a long time. Just over a year, as a matter of fact since I blogged on here. There's really no one particular reason I stepped back from blogging......At first, once school began last year, I didn't have a lot to say. Then the holidays came and went, along with winter. Spring brought outside activities and T-ball and baseball schedules. I would like to say it was a busy summer....other than the kids' ballgames, though, we were home a lot. So, I guess I just let life and my own lack of motivation get in the way of blogging. I kinda had a revelation about myself......I don't always think before I talk. I have worked on this flaw....but to no avail. So, I guess I have a bit of fear that I may, also, type before I think. A late night fury of emotion on the computer may turn into someone suggesting I need a psychiatric evaluation. : ) I am a highly emotional, passionate person. I tend to share whatever emotion I am experiencing with those around me. I have heard the news that potential employers search blogs for information on applicants before considering them for a position in a company....this scared me a little bit, too. I had this vision of someday wanting to go back to work and finding a potential employer didn't hire me because of a late night posting on why I feel unmotivated, uninspired and downright lazy for days at a time. Those aren't exactly endearing qualities a employee should possess. Yet, here I am....back on the blog. I guess I have decided I need this outlet. Facebook has been a source for sharing photos and basic ideas for a while, but I still feel like I need a more personal place to share with you. So--here I am, world....potential employers and all. Somedays I will sound perfectly sane and others I will sound like a total wack-job....but I am a mother and homemaker who is not perfect at either of those jobs.....but I do have days where I have victories over small projects that have been waiting for me. And I always, always have beautiful, small faces, and a loving husband giving me a reason to try again each day. Welcome back. Thanks for coming on my journey with me.
