Sunday Goodness

I love my blog. I love my blog. I love  my blog....  I do - for real. But I have been so neglectful. I have turned over a new beginning {again}.  Sunday is the key I think. Sunday will be the day to work on my blog. If I can do it once a week for sure, I'll feel much better. 

quiet
creative
up to date
inspiring

Because as it is, I THINK about blogging everyday but then think "I can't TODAY, because I need to get it up to date first." No way. I'll get the pictures up and the projects and the {STUFF} eventually  But I need to document my todays as well.

So here's to New Beginnings.

**New planner, too!!  I am so excited. I just ordered myself a Mormon Mom Planner and 2 YW planners for the girls at this nifty site. (it is a blog but there are links to order right there) They are beautiful & amazing and I am hoping worth every penny. They have Regular Mom planners, too.  In both academic (Aug-July) and yearly versions.

The YW one has sections for seminary scripture mastery, and dating 101 and scripture reading chart, and budgeting and the calendaring of course.
The MOM one has FHE, budgeting, gift giving pages, a section for each child, vacation planning pages, planning pages for each holiday, a visiting teaching section and even a place to plan out date night each week.

You can "page through it" HERE.  Coolest thing ever!

I am super excited to get it and write in it. I have a vacation to plan and a house to organize and kids to raise and a business to run and callings to do and, and. and...I need a little help along the way. PERFECT.

Gratitude–Day 20

I am thankful for technological advances.

My day went something like this:

- 6:00am – Awakened by Tallen squishing in

- 6:30am – Can’t sleep, turned on TV

- 7:00am – 1st call with my cell phone to the Laundromat(I had more to dry than time to do it in) This call was followed by 3 others at 7:15, 7:30 & 7:45.

- 8:00am – dressed for the day and breakfast (pastry in the microwave and tea on the stove)

- 8:05am – load the van with wet clothes drive to Laundromat

- 8:12am – put clothes for the children in ALL the dryers (I didn’t even get to knit,  it went so fast)

- 8:35-9:23am – fold clothes and drive home

- 9:45am – drive quickly to the airport

- 11:05am – girls board plane bound for GA

- 11:55am – giant plane- made of metal takes to the air (impossible!!)

A day full of technology!!

Cell phones-so I could call for hours and to calm the girls stress from afar

TV-to fill the empty too quiet times

microwave-to quickly heat my donut to make it soft and warm-like new again

gas stove-instant heat is wonderful. I didn’t have to chop wood, light a fire and wait for the heat to build.

And don’t forget the heated air to sit comfy in, the hot water just waiting by, ready to use.

vans-that carry my family and our stuff everywhere

dryers-to dry my clothes quickly-it no longer takes all day to hang and dry clothes.

airplanes- that takes the time it takes to get to Atlanta. GA from an long and hard trip of 12 hours down to 2hrs.  Amazing!

very cool gloves!

These are SmarTouch gloves by Isotoner. They are touchscreen compatible. VERY cool. For gals like me - totally addicted to their touchscreen phones. I triedthem. They work. Cool. (except that MY fingers are exceptionally short...and don't quite reach the tips of the fingers.) Grippy palms, for driving ease. Warm and fuzzy inside. VERY cool.
Elder Beerman has them...25% off right now... :o)
