Check It Out

Lately I have been obsessed with wanting to get our house more organized!  I have looked at numerous websites about organizing, (window) shopped online for organizing items, looked at magazines that are dedicated to organizing, and gotten ideas from Pinterest.  A couple days ago, after spending what I'm sure was too much time on Pinterest, I stumbled on this great site.  Maybe I am way behind and all of you out there have seen it already, but I just couldn't get enough of it!  She has some great ideas on little things to do (5 or 10 minute things) that can clear up some clutter in your house.  That is just what I need!  I really like her mail station and her free printables.  I plan on taking some of her ideas and getting our house in order again!  Or at least that is my plan, anyway.

What are your favorite places to get organizing tips from?

Did you know?

I found this when I was waisting time looking at Pinterest tonight.  It was kind of neat to see this put in perspective...even if it was with fruit!  lol

Thankful Thursday

This week has been extra hard and stressful on me and I have been thinking "Why me?" a lot lately.  Then today it hit me that I need to realize that, even though you think you have it bad, there is always someone out there that has it worse.  Now, I am not saying that my problems or your problems are not hard, stressful, trying, etc.  I just feel like I need to take a step back and just be thankful for all the wonderful things that I actually do have.  I have an amazing husband who loves me no matter what, I have an adorable four legged baby who also loves me no matter what, I have great friends and family, I am (fairly) healthy, and I have a job that I really like.  I think that's a ton to be thankful for, don't you?!?  So, dear God, please forgive me for not thanking you enough for what I have and know that I appreciate it all!

It's About TIme

I know, I know...it has been FOREVER since I have written anything and I am truly sorry for that!  I'm sure no one really missed me, though, because I am pretty sure no one even reads this crazy thing:/  Oh well!  These last few months have been a little hard to deal with, so when I saw this saying on Pinterest (which is my new fav!!!!), I thought it would be the perfect way to kick of my blogging for 2012.

I need to paint this on my wall somewhere I can see it every single day!!  There are just some days (hours, minutes) that I need to be reminded that He will take care of it all in the end and that I really shouldn't worry about it so much!

So...here's to me starting to blog again!!!  Hope everyone is having a great week!!
