Slow Day on the Homefront

As seems to be the "norm" these days, I got a late start this morning, and was not out of bed until after ten o'clock.  But there is not much to do around the house today, so I did not have the motivation I would normally have to get up and start my day.

The best news of the day (so far, anyway) is that I am now fully stocked up on clothes for Julianne for at least the next 6 months!  A good friend of mine brought me hundreds of pieces to choose from, and even after going through and picking and choosing what I wanted, I still have a closet full of clothes!  So a big thank you to her for helping me out!  Now today, I'm putting everything through the wash, going through it once more to really see if I need it all, and then hopefully putting it neatly away, as right now it is all just shoved "neatly" on the closet shelves.

Today will be my last day here at home for a couple weeks, other than the rare occasion that I come stay here for a night or two.  I will be working as a nanny of 3 boys starting tomorrow evening!  I am sure I will be keeping you all entertained with stories from the madhouse over the next 14 days, and hoping that all works out with Julianne coming at a good time.  We shall see.  Sometime today I will get around to packing what I need to take with me, but for now I'm enjoying a relaxing afternoon doing very little.

It Has Been Too Long!!

6 months!  It has been almost 6 months since I have posted on this blog, and that is a horrible shame!

But in my own defense, the last 6 months have also been incredibly chaotic and confusing.  I couldn't even keep up with what was going on in my own life, much less make sense of it enough to blog about it.  But now, things are finally settling down, and I am finding more time to sort through the chaos and start sharing with my cyber world again... And I am so happy!

Julianne Rose is due any day, and she will be the best thing I could receive in this Christmas season.  In fact, this afternoon, one of my best friends will be bringing "hand-me-downs" over to the house for me to sort through, and as many of you know, in this economic time, and being a single mom, those are crucial!!  Thanks Tara, love!

Hopefully now, I will be back to posting on a regular basis!  Enjoy my friends!

And have a blessed CHRISTMAS season!
