There is something reassuring about standing for something, and knowing what we stand for.
For men and women who are true to themselves and to the virtues and standards they have
personally adopted, it is not difficult to be true to others.
{ Gordon B. Hinckley, standing for something }



Catch Ya Later

In an attempt to bring some order to this world of mine that has felt a little out of control since the new year (or before then, maybe?), I'm going to be simplifying for the next month or so. I need to get on top of some things -- projects, exercising, taxes, pre-move cleaning and de-cluttering, etc. In order for those things to happen, something's gotta give. As I've evaluated where I can come up with some extra time, I decided blogging, Facebook, etc., all needs to be put on hold. I love blogging and plan to continue. Blogging has been a great temporary substitute for scrapbooking while funds and time have been short, it has served as a therapeutic means of me getting my feelings out and recording life events so I don't forget them. But, it's far too easy for me to put Eliot down for a nap, plunk down in front of the computer (too often with an unhealthy snack or two in front of me!), and, before I know it, those two precious hours of time, when I could and should be getting kid-free projects done, are gone. So my plan is to spend the weeks between now and Spring Break (end of March), getting back on the wagons I have fallen off -- getting organized, back in shape, and hopefully sane again. I'll report back on all of that later! In the meantime, contact me by phone or e-mail if you need to and know that I'll be back shortly! Don't miss me too much! :)

I'm eating m&m's right now, as I check blogs, while my boys are napping. Umm... are we friends or what? :)

I'm such a nerd... I seriously was checking your blog this week. I knew you were on vacation and I knew you have not been blogging the past month. I think I have a "blog checking addiction" or something.
