Home Just in Time

I'm back home in Colorado! I was suppose to come back on Friday but weather made it so I had to head back earlier than planned. And I'm back just in time for Valentine's day...except we don't celebrate it really so it's not that big of deal.

Hubby's mom is going much better. She is out of the ICU now for 3 days and has started physical therapy. She's starting the long recovery to get herself able to move into a rehab center and then to an assistant living home hopefully. Our prayers are that she can be able to go to my sister in laws wedding in April when we will be heading back out to OK again.

Stopping my life for 13 days has made my to do list that was already a mile long even longer and needed to be completed in a faster manner than before. Why you ask? Well because I have a little boy that has figured out how to move around and will be crawling probably before the months end! Yes crawling already! I'm ready and so not ready all at the same time.

So even though I was in the car from about 11 am to midnight I'm up and doing laundry, cleaning and organizing to hopefully get things accomplished quickly.

Now I just need to find time to get a nap here and there so I don't just crash after a day or two of moving because my schedule does not slow down at all. We have plans everyday this weekend and then 4 days next week. I can skip one or two next week if I need to but life doesn't stop just because you were gone for 13 days.

Thank you for all your prayers!

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

Changing My Lifestyle!

Well not only walking but just in general changing my lifestyle. I am currently overweight according to the doctors and the horrible BMI chart by 60 pounds. I seriously don't think that I will ever loose that much weight ever again. If I do great but not my goal because I want something attainable.  I have tried some many different things to lose weight and it just never works. Before I was pregnant I was right where I am now. My body has changed since I was pregnant but the weight is still the same. The good news I didn't gain anything after the pregnancy but the bad news is I still need to do something. So I'm going through the Made to Crave book and I love it. I have decided to change many different things about my lifestyle. I want to be able to have the energy to keep up with Rex and enjoy my life and right now it just doesn't seem to be everything it should be.  So here is what I have started doing...I eat only things God created. Fruits, veggies, healthy...

Frumpy or Fabulous?

Staying at home can create a sense of comfort. Allowing to stay in PJ's all day, enjoying just lounging of the couch and eating bon bon's. However for most of us homemakers we do not have this luxury of lounging and bon bon's. We have things to do with our children, house cleaning to do, and many thing outside of the house. Sometimes getting dressed in the morning just seems pointless. Excuses like I have to clean so why would I put on my 'nice' clothes or the baby is just going to spit up on me so I should just stay in my pj's since I will have to change later anyway. These are valid reasons on some  days to stay in our pj's but most  days we should get up and get ready just like if we worked outside of the home. It shows our husbands that we care about him and we try to make sure that we look good for him. It also shows are children good habits of getting up and getting dressed and ready for the day. If you read in Proverbs 31 you will see what a wif...
