Missed yesterday

I missed posting yesterday. It was a super busy day and I just forgot. Now I can beat myself up mentally or I can relax and just keep counting. Today I choose to be positive and just keep going.

Day 4 of "Blog a day"challenge

Blogger app

I am so glad blogger has an app. It means I can blog on a mobile device while running around to get my family to various activities. I will be able to keep up with posting now.

Day 3 of "Blog a day challenge "

My Calendar

I am going to be very busy this year and I know I have to keep everything straight.... but I also know keeping it all in my head will not work. So I have pulled out the trusty calendar again.  I know I accomplish more when I document what I have to finish.  So this year I am going to work on creating goals and scheduling time to work on them in my planner/calendar.
I am going to work on creating a goal budget sheet.... where I decide how much time each week I want to spend on each goal/area of my life.
 Do you have goals you want to work on.... or have a favorite calendar you love to use?
leave me a comment :)

Day 2 of "blog a day" challenge

reboot of the reboot

so... yep didn't really post well. My daughter did an animation a day challenge.... she is on day 784... So I am going to do "write a blog post a day" challenge.  for at least 365 days.
This will be "my things I am doing combined with things I am thinking about" blog ... till I better figure out a direction for myself. SO  today's post:

I have realized about myself that I am happiest if I am either creating actual objects (things in string or paper that are usable and can be held in your hand) or if I am researching education and writing about it.  Without creation.... I get depressed.   So I decided to research common core math (the research behind it and the actual application behind it) and create a dictionary of terms for parents.  I have also been working on crochet items for the home like baskets and mason jar covers.

Of course on top of all of that... I tutor at local community college, home school three kids, make sure 4 college kids have what they need, and babysit. yep... not too busy.

all are welcome to  join me on this blog journey.  Anyone want to also do "a blog a day"?.... let me know.

Day 1 blog post.... complete

reboot after 6 years

So in 2009, I went back to college. Over the next five years, I completed my AA and a BA in English.  Needless to say, that took most of my time. Now that I have graduated, I have time and want to get back to blogging. This blog is going to be my place to think things through.  Things that are happening that I just want to mull over (not a journal). These things may not be what I believe but will be my way of working through what I believe by playing both sides. Maybe this is silly, but I am someone who works through decisions by talking.

why am I a slob.

I know why I was in the habit of being a slob as a kid. It was for control (one thing my dad couldn't control.) and if you can't find anything you can't snoop through it. But why am I still a slob. Is it just habit. Did I teach my kids the same habit (well some of them LOL)
How do I over come that habit?

writing down my life

spent a while this morning writing out some things about my life growing up but morphed into also how God broke the hold that the lies had on me. Its amazing how you can live your life in a fog and suddenly by acknowledging the truth... it clears. Things you thought you were seeing clearly become recognizable for what they really are.
