Finishing what i start.

I love to write, make jewelry, do crafts and all that jazz....but I need to actually finish things in order to be actually productive. I have some jewelry in a store on consignmennt and thats turned out to be a dud. I need to get in there and get my jewelry...and demand payment for the things that have sold. If they didn't move the store again on me...and I would LIKE to re-open my etsy store. But I need to finish projects to get the collection ready to go and ship BEFORE I even think about doing that.

I have been writing a novel for about a year now...and I'm only basically half way thru it....I need to finish that up. But again....I need to focus on one thing at a time and just get it done. Yes, I just had a baby. Yes, I have three kids, a husband and a house to run.

But I feel as though I might be a little a.d.d. about the whole thing. Like...ooh, something shiny!....look! Theres a squirrel...kind of thing.Then I stress out over it till' I'm just like...eh, not today...some other time.

So, heres to getting stuff done today, one thing at a time ;)

 Which reminds me...I need to go to some thrift stores and make a costume for JJ. I always follow thru for others, just not for myself. Wierd, huh? What does that mean? Do I not take myself seriously? Do I not believe I can do it? Or is it that my self esteem is so low that I dont have confidence in myself...like Im not actually good enough to finish it, cuz noone will want to see what I have done anyway. Wow. Maybe. Do I have something to prove to myself??? Well, I do now. I'm going to prove to myself, that whether someone else likes it or not. I DO....and it was worth it to me. Yeah, thats it. Rawr.

The Black and Orange Caterpillar..

Today my good friend asked me..."What is your blog about?? I said , "Nothing." She said, "Ooh, like Seinfeld!"...hahaha...Got to love her.  I just felt like starting one...felt like...blah, blah, blogging I guess. I was told today i was too random. So, I think I'll tell people it's about...random things.

Enough of that. Thats my explanation in a nut shell.

I need Ibuprofen and some cammomile tea , if you know what I mean...and a long hot bubble bath. I'm typing away and I hear in the background, the governers debate, my sweet baby cooing at her daddy and my boys in the bath tub splashing water all over the floor that Im about to go soak my socks on....but all I can think about...is on the way to pick up Gabe from school, I ran over a fuzzy caterpillar in the road. Poor thing. :)

Lets see here.....

I'm fighting the urge to start this off with...Dear Diary.

Well, the ham in the crockpot smells good. I'm trying out my friends recipe today with french onion soup and cajun spices.  I really WANT to clean my house today too, especially the craft room. It's actually my dining room...sad , huh? Oh well...it'll be a good day! better go...Screaming 3 month old is needing mommy. :) yay...first blog done!
