Well, I've been giving new direction to my life. I have found something new to entertain me. This new thing has my mind working in all kinds of different ways and its exciting! This new thing. . .are you ready. . .is PINTREST!!
Egads, is this thing addicting! Oh my goodness, who knew you could use a dresser in 35 different ways, other than to hold clothes. Or that Toilet Paper rolls could make amazing wall decorations! Or that you could prepare 2 months of meals in one day! What??!! Oh the possibilities! Sooo, I sat down and thought, I need to make a list, my mind is spinning and I have to get it under control. So, I thought, maybe, I should chronicle my projects, ideas, screw ups, failed attempts and hopefully successes with those who have nothing else better in life, than to read my rantings. Now, I have to be careful, and preface this with the disclaimer that this will be an all inclusive, chaotic menagerie of stuff. Maybe some cooking, definitely some painting, possibly, some organization and even a slim chance of a parenting tip that - for whatever reason - magically worked one day.
So if you're up for some interesting and probably unsuccessful PINTRESTING activities. . . then come along. If not, I truly do understand and will hold nothing against you. :-)
The general theme of the blog will be about reducing chaos in a house of never ending chaos. Sounds contradictory, I know. Go figure. But, in general, isn't that how life is. One giant contradiction after another. My acceptance of this chaos to this point was purely out of self-preservation. If I tried TO hard to organize and structure our life, then I'd be one very disappointed and worn out lady. Add to that, that many of the silly things my kids do, like get deathly ill and need fun little ambulance rides to the hospital, or the coming of the "24" hour flu (which will last a minimum of 10 days in our house, are out of my control. Again, that is not my plan, but clearly my good friend upstairs has a sick sense of humor. So, organizing in that scenerio, though still possible, had its limitations. . . until PINTREST. Oh my, the things I have missed and how I could have shaved off 3 minutes in the morning, an hour at dinner, 7 hours over a course of a week - it's like getting a whole day back! So, I'm determined to implement some of these amazing ideas into my crazy, chaotic life. . . I'm reining in the chaos!!
