Getting the Swing of Things...

          Hey everyone!  Hope you are all doing well, thank you for catching up with me once again!  So basically, last blog post I informed you guys about the "organizer" spreadsheet I created.  It's meant to help keep myself up to date with all things house, kids, food, husband and myself related HAHA!  I also mentioned the two other resources I use for my chores list and Dinner planning.                   I must say I have been even more organized than I had even planned.  I was able to effortlessly have dinner ready when I wanted, the house stayed clean(for the most part considering I have a "make mess" programmed 2-year old), I was even able to add-in unplanned visits to the hospital for my grandma and my brother and aunt coming from out of town to stay at my parents as well.  I'd say for the first week this was a hit!           In all of our efforts as parents I feel that we sometimes skimp out on ourselves.  I cannot believe how much I just fluff

I'd like to reintroduce myself.        After this post I will try to see if blogging can be a part of my hectic life.  My husband, two children and trying to find what I love doing again has me pretty consumed.  I feel good writing to you guys again.  This almost feels so natural I can't recall how I stopped.  Yet, as I look away from my computer screen it's easy to remember what made me stop.  I hope to start with weekly posts and schedule my time to r
