Mommy got her smart phone on...

This is a test. This is only a test.

As many of you know, I have been debating whether I should get a blackberry and tie myself to my email.
Well, I did it. And man, do I love it. I now have endless opportunities to capture life in all it's crazy and share it with you!

Enjoy!!

Those winter time blues....

Fog. Ice. Snow.
Slush. Dirty cars. Flooding.
School's out. Kids cooped up. Dog getting lost in the snow drifts.
This is my recipe for the winter time blues.

I don't really have anything new to report tonight. I just missed you! ; )


There always seems to be this lull in the middle of winter. A time when I just can't seem to get motivated to do anything.
Cleaning isn't fun. (yes, normally I love it!)
Organizing seems overwhelming. (yes, that is 100% opposite of my normal thought)
Laundry is piling up. (yes, that does happen in the summer too!)
My blog goes unloved for too long....

So, tonight I'm writing a gratitude list to lift my spirits. Someone once told me, "a full and thankful heart cannot entertain great conceits. When brimming with gratitude, one's heartbeat must surely result in outgoing love, the finest emotion that we can ever know."

I'm grateful for...
my husband
my children
my mother
my family
my friends, especially my best friends, my mommy friends, my neighbor friends and my work friends!
organic snacks
health insurance
the internet
my computer
my blackberry ; )
my music, without which I would never get anything done
my reliable car
my warm bed
my warm, safe and comfortable house
my lack of fancy stuff to clutter my house
my job
sticky notes
my washing machine
Walnut Creek swim team
my sense of humor
my friends' sense of humor
Avery's sense of humor
my ability to read
my faith in God....

Hang in there, spring is almost here!
God bless,
