Then there are those that fall into the "regular people" category. They have nice homes , can cook the basics but prefer to eat out, don't do anything especially creative in their lives They run around with their kids just trying to keep up. This is almost everyone I know.
There is a third category that falls right in the middle of those two. Those striving to be a Martha, but knowing it is so not realistic for their situation., due to energy, time, money, etc... That would be me! I am a mid-forty something with a busy husband, two almost teenagers, a slightly spoiled 8 year old, 4 dogs, a lizard & of course my live-in 80 something Mom. My time is at a premium. I would like to do so much, but there are only so many hours in a day.
If you follow my blog I will promise you a few things:
1. There will be pretty pictures, that is mostly why I follow blogs. Here is one now!
Isn't that pretty. That is my one lucky Peony flower from my garden. Do you know they flower once a season then look like an ugly green weed for the rest of the summer? I love to take pictures, though not technically perfect (been meaning to take a photography class for years) they are pretty.
2. I will make you feel better about yourself because I spell horribly (thank you spell check), I have a hard time completing anything I start. I have been scrap-booking for 10 years, but haven't touched the stuff in over a year. (F.A, (Funny Anecdote) My Hubby calls my basement "the Store" because I have so much.) You can follow me on my journey to Perfection.
3. I have funny stories... ex, Bulldog Cleaning Service
4. I might actually inspire you. I love the web, magazines anything creative, pretty, inspirational. I love cooking, shopping and decorating on my modest budget. I will post cool stuff and attempt to add it into my life without imploding. Should be fun to watch!
So until next time.... Keep Striving!!!
