Homemaking Progress Report–The “Two A’s”—I CAN DO IT!!!
So my two weeks with "The Two A's" are up.Let's see how I did...#1. Attitude: Surprising as it seems, my attitude has gone through a major overhaul these past two weeks. I've always wanted a clean, organized home with family meals and sparkling children but actually doing it has been a pain. (Honestly---who likes to scrub toilets or dust?

And I love that it is tiny George Washingtons with tiny axes, cherries and cherry ... View the Post
Speaking of Appearances…
Sorry, there will be no $5 Friday this week. I'm on my way to St. George to run a marathon. However, since this is a monumental occasion I thought I'd post a little something.What's monumental, you ask? Well, it's not the marathon. It's the fact that I shaved my legs before running. I never think about if my legs are shaved or not before a race but since I'm following the advice of Ms. Hoole I'm hoping to "look the part" so I can do the part. We'll see how it goes.I'll be back on Monday ... View the Post
