I Won't Give Up Yet!

Okay, I decided I'll keep it up and use this for 15 minutes of "me" time too. Or throw a note up when I can. So....what to write about today?.. Well, we had our first snow today! I was so excited to wake up this morning and see snowflakes falling and sticking! It was as if the Christmas season was being ushered in. So we'll have our annual "Snow Party" today. We usually make paper snowflakes and then bake snowflake-shaped cookies or something. Of course, now later in the day, the snow is gone. Hopefully, it'll come again soon. If it's going to be cold, I want something to show for it.


These were the good ol' days.


On another note, my smallest child is not sleeping, as usual. He's not been taking his afternoon naps and it's driving me crazy. Oh, I still put him up in bed and yesterday after an hour of being up there he fell asleep. He doesn't cry the whole time but off and on he whines and hearing that is also maddening. The funny growling noises he makes are good though. I think this means it's time to cut out the morning nap. I did this the other day as a trial. He did sleep in the afternoon, but I dealt with gremlin baby the whole morning. So, I guess I need to figure out what's more important. Gremlin baby or complete "alone" time, gremlin baby or complete "alone" time. I know for right now, I need an oreo. :0)

Should I Even Bother?

I don't know how you do it. I keep trying and trying and failing miserably - that is, in keeping my blog updated. How do you guys get the chance to type out a wonderful entry while balancing kids, chores, jobs, more chores, and "you" time? You pretty much amaze me. So I'm grappling with whether or not I should just close this site down and be done with it. I don't know if people even read this...maybe I'm talking to myself here....
