Hip hip hooray... Its a SNOW DAY today...

Who would have thought we would actually get a snow day. What a nice surprise to wake up and find no school/no work... I was very busy today. Cleaning, washing, exercising, playing cards with the boys and actually I even had time to make some cards. I love to spend time creating, but why is it that I don't take the time.. Probably because I can think of a million other things that need done and it always involves cleaning. Or, taking the time to create involves doing something by myself down in my scrap room and I feel too guilty.

Its not like our house is messy.. The boys are great about putting their toys away, making their beds, but for some reason in my head all I see is dirt, mess and clutter.. The guilt part, I wonder if it is because of my Italian upbringing or my family life growing up.. One can never tell but this is definitely something I need to work on. Stay warm..

Thats all for now...

The 1st of many.. At least I hope

Here begins a new journey.. Blogging.. I am not sure I will like it for myself, but I know I am faithful to the bloggings of others.. The privacy issue (or lack there of) kinda freaks me out, but I have spoke to many who enjoy. I hope this becomes a way to express myself and to dive into a new creative outlet that I have not experienced yet. I also hope this is a way to journal our life stories for the whole family to enjoy. Wish me luck, cause I think I am going to need it...

And now for the afters.. Shiplap everywhere..  Well maybe not everywhere, but on the majority of the first floor.  If it was up to me, I wou...
