A Bit about me

So now that I have the time, I am committing to writing about myself.

I am not a perfect person. Some of the time I am ok with this. In fact, MOST of the time I am ok with this. I am not a neat freak or a health freak. I like to sleep in, and can do so with dirty dishes in the sink. If the laundry sits in the washer overnight because I am too tired to move off the chair- that's ok, I can just wash them again in the morning.

Every now and then I get these grand ideas that I am going to become a perfect, neat freak, health nut, uber-mommy. It lasts about an hour, then I go back to being me. But I do get this wave of jealousy (see, a perfect person would never ever let jealousy rear its ugly head) when I realize that I can walk into the homes of my sister or some friends and not have them freak out because they didn't have time to clean- their houses are always clean. And I do sometimes wish that I actually wanted to eat fruit every morning after doing my 90 minute workout. But I don't want to. And if I actually do it, it's because I'm forcing myself to do it. See? Not perfect.

But like it or not, I'm me. I'm unique, thoughtful, helpful, and an incredibly hard worker. I pride myself on the being the fix-it girl. I'd rather spend an hour making a homemade card with love than actually picking out one from the grocery store. I'm funny and a tad on the crazy side. I love to feed and entertain people-a full house is a happy house. Just make sure you call first- because I guarantee I have to vacuum!

Just Starting.....

OK, so I am in no way a serious writer, but I have been thinking about starting a blog. You know, because I have so much free time. I've taken the first step and signed up, but to be honest, don't have that much time to play around and figure out how to really use the site. BUT this is a good start..... So, stay tuned... hopefully soon I will have some interesting things for you to read!
