"tis the season



Christmas is here!  OK well maybe not quite but close enough that everything is at that crazy state of making sure everything you wanted to have done by Christmas is in fact done. 

I know the blog has been neglected the last couple of weeks, but well its Christmas and things just got too busy to write about being organized.  With the holiday out of the way next week I will (for real this time) get my weekly posts back in order. 

I will be working on Christmas day but have set aside lots of time on other days to celebrate the birth of Christ (after all no one really knows when he was born but we celebrate his life anyhow don't we so the specific day isn't whats important) Tuesday with the family & a week or so after the first of the year a weekend with some friends.  It is going to great and I can not wait to see everyone and just enjoy the time I am allowed to spend with them.

Thank you all for reading my blog, I hope you're not terribly inconvenienced by my not writing about organizing, if you are I am sorry. It will be back. 

I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your loved ones.

And in the midst of paper flying and squeals of joy over the latest greatest gadget remember why we celebrate the season. It really isn't a commercial holiday.  God did send his Son to earth as a gift to us all.  I hope you feel His blessing this week.

Have a great day and a blessed Christmas week!

always

PS  If this post offends you, well I'm sorry.  I am a Christian and I celebrate the birth of Christ.  Not a the commercial holiday our government would like me to celebrate.

Thank you have a good day.

Throwback Thursday

    Let me just start by saying straight out of the gate that I absolutely hate to be on the front side of any camera much less my own.  Now it isn't that I don't enjoy being in the moment, I do.  I just enjoy taking the pictures instead of being in them if that makes any sense at all.   With that said I'm glad I was on the front side of this camera this day.  I suppose all little girls dream of growing up, getting married and having babies.  I know when I was a little girl my friends and i would play house, we would more less mark of sections of the room as mine and theirs these sections would be my house or her house.  we'd have baby dolls name them fun names.  We had fun.  I don't know that I ever really thought about actually having children when I grew up.  And as I got older I remember that I didn't even want to get married when I grew up much less have any kids.  But we all grow up. And that guy comes along t...

Monday, my favorite day of the week?

Well yes.  I do love Mondays, as much as Saturday or Sunday?  When I worked at the credit union I lived for the federal holidays to come around, it was so nice to spend the day home alone without any care in the world...except when that holiday was also a day for the kids to be out of school or Stephen to be off work.  Don't read into that...I love my family, but I also enjoy time to do what I like to do with out having to listen to the girls fussing at each other or Stephen playing video games or watching some silly show on TV.  With this new job, well it's like I get a holiday weekend every single week.  YAY! working 4 days off 3 is by far the best shift I have ever worked  Now don't get me wrong.  I like my job, but who doesn't love weekends right?  I mean really...look at what I get to do all day...sleep in if I want, play on the computer with the house being completely quiet. (priceless by the way) I get to share my thoughts on this sill...

Super sweet scrub

So the picture isn't the best, you're not looking at a wonderful back drop or perfectly packaged product for this jar of sugar scrub.  But what you are looking at is a simply wonderful homemade sugar body scrub.  I am guilty of spending more than my share of time on the ever growing in popularity website craze "Pinterest" just looking and pinning, pinning, pinning.  I asked myself some time last week "what is the point in this if I don't try some of the things I am pinning."  So yesterday I found this recipe for a sugar body scrub, it helps take off  dry dead skin and it hydrates as well. Now I know we haven't been hit with a bad winter (yet) but the air has been terribly dry and my skin is really suffering all dry and itchy.  My hands have gotten so bad that they were starting to crack and bleed around my cuticles.  So I made this scrub last night before taking my shower.  Here is what I did: Mix 1/3 cup of each in a bowl Brown sugar Regular...
