Speed Bumps

Sometimes we are moving right along and focusing (well, o.k., kind of focusing, how people like me try to do) on what our goals are. Full of energy and determination. Then those little speed bumps come along and knock us off track a bit. That is how this week was, appointments to dentists (kids, & on the way home dd12 is still not feeling well from the fluride stuff and begins to get sick during mom's coffee run...it was my lucky day..she packed her lunch in a plastic bag and you have never seen lunch go flyin out of a bag and onto the mouth of a child so fast, and actually that was my lucky day as I have never had that kind of luck before, normally it would be all over the car..ugh. So while dd still feels unwell, I am goin on and on about how wonderful to save the day w/one of those plastic bags & she wonders if that is all I care about since she has just gotten sick! LOL...oh, is this a run-on sentence?)

Now where was I? This week I just was not accomplishing much in the way of the organization plan or anything else. My days went astray w/all kinds of unplanned things...bumps. Add PMS and that spells trouble. The "I am never gonna win this battle who am I kidding" kinda blues...can you hear that song. So I am just going to crawl out of it. Still exercised/walked. Added some "peanut chews" & "swedish fish" to the mix (chips & dip may be coming up yet, I cannot tell yet). But hey, I finished my project for the "Mermaid Swap" from Bella-Enchanted Just have to add finishing touches and mail out Monday..another one due out end of week. Will take photos this weekend.

I remember when all I could post was these lovely vintage pictures and could only hope to post my own stuff, crafts, family, fun finds. I have more to upload this weekend maybe adding yard sale finds once again if it does not rain in the morning. Last weekend I found some really great things again, including a tripod for my camera that I have to try out. I like posting my treasures but had no time lately. Hope you all enjoy your weekend. I hope to get back into my forward motion of getting my home in order and posting regularly. There is always another day isn't there? Some nights I can feel like I am so defeated and then comes the morning full of hope.

Goodnight & God Bless
