Update on JTL

I just wanted to say thank you for the comments and e-mails I received regarding my last post. It really meant a lot. I honestly didn't realize people actually read JTL anymore. Not that I have had any good content lately... Perhaps it has been a writers block, if you will. There have been things going on in the news that I want to write about, but by the time I get around to writing about current events they are already history.

I have tried to steer clear of becoming a typical "mommy blog"... Mommy stuff is what is going on... and I want to separate the two and have a carefree adult place to go to... Then when I am out and about doing my mommy thing I get a bright idea for a post and I forget about it quicker than the thought flew into my mind.

I have been trying to keep up a website related to my children to mark milestones and to post pictures of the girls growing up for my friends and family who are not able to see them on a day-to-day basis.

Work has been crazy-busy. I honestly do not remember it being this way in previous years. My work falls in line with construction schedules, so hopefully in the next couple of months things will slow down just a wee bit. Then home is as follows below...

Here's the stuff on my to-do list:

1. Prepare clothing items for the Kiddie Kloset sale
2. Update the FOP mailing list
3. Do flyers for potluck and raffle
3. Organize the kids playroom
4. Yard work... Spring is here and my yard needs a face lift
5. Have enough time to tend to my business and get things off the ground

So I really have been away with good reason... I need to make time for me... Which has been hard. Heck, I work out during my lunch. That's the only time during the day I have.

Alright I am off my soapbox and done rambling.

I will be back... Promise. I just need to get back into the groove.

Until next time, toodles!

So I have been so totally bad keeping up with JTL. Part of me thinks of "hanging it up" and the other part of me doesn't want to let go of what I created here. I do have some friends that I have made along the way that I hope will be around for a long time. Then the other part of me thinks damn I am SO freaking busy...

Honestly I have been spread pretty thin now having 2 children and just a heck of a lot of craziness going on when I am at home. I have been cooking and baking a lot more which is something I really enjoy doing. It is very rewarding hearing Em compliment me. I have also been playing Webkinz with her too which has been pretty fun.

I am planning my baby's first birthday which freaks the crap out of me considering it seems like yesterday I was pregnant. It saddens me she is growing up and will lose the technicality of being a baby, but will always be my baby no matter how old.

So that kinda sums things up in a nut shell... I am torn...

Farewell #4...

It was announced yesterday Brett Favre will be retiring from the Green Bay Packers. When I heard the news I was so sad. I knew Brett had been throwing around the idea of retiring for several years. So it was inevitable, but true fans of Brett always hoped for "one more season".

I will miss watching games cheering him on or yelling at the television for a bad play.

Thank you for the memories. You made me proud to be a Cheesehead. You will be missed.

Holy crap!!

A whole month has gone by with a blink of an eye!!! Damn life flies by too fast!

I have been busy working on my new business. I am hoping to introduce it to everyone soon!!
