No more excuses

 The reason why I am no good at blogging???? Well, there are 3 reasons. Maybe 4. Children and husband. Trying to find some quiet time to sit down and NOT be hassled, seems impossible. At this very moment, Aniya is shoving an Umbrella in my face, using it as a very large poking device. Boys are watching TV, but constantly asking for snacks, juice, etc. Jacob just informed me that you can breathe under weather, with a mask, and is taking about 5 minutes describing it in FULL detail. And then at the end of the day, when the house is quiet, I'm exhausted!! When do you find time to do it, people?!? However, I am determined to make this thing work. I seriously feel like all I do, all day, every day, is Mumsy stuff. Am I complaining?!? A little. And sometimes when I complain, I feel like a horrible woman, because I know that many other women  would love to be able to stay at home and not have to go out  to work. Anyways, I'm rambling..............

 I know that when my kids are older, I will think back to this time, and wish that I could do it all over again. Their smiling faces more than make up for it. :)

 So now my goal is to continue this thing, and HOPEFULLY have a new post tomorrow. As long as the above-mentioned 4 co-operate ;)

New Things

I wouldn't say I'm a blog-stalker. Quite the opposite in fact. My sister keeps telling me about all these cool blogs that she stumbles across, where she finds the inspiration for her sewing and 'food' ideas, and it's got me intrigued. I've always felt like I haven't got the time to have a blog. Running around after my 3 kids seems to be about as much energy as I can muster these days ( and maintaining my OCD tendencies which cause me to feel like my house must be perfect at all times!) I'd go as far to say that I felt like having a blog was a selfish thing, and one that I didn't have the time for. BUT, I now feel like I need some type of outlet for my day-to-day runnings as a Mum, and most importantly, a wife. I couldn't care less if no one EVER looked at my blog. That would be fine. So here I go. I'm making a stab at it, and we'll see how it goes. Perhaps tomorrow I'll share all about my incredible weekend in London. Just me and Jo, no kids. Wow. Now that was fantastic!
