it feels like it's been like FOREVER...
i hope you haven't forgotten me...
or that you think i for about you sweet friends who stop by to read my blog...
life keeps happening...
regardless of how we "think" is should go...
or how we want it to go...
i make plans...
write long to-do lists...
have big goals...
then i am reminded...
i am not really that in control of life...
some things yes...
like the shade of pink i am using in my next line...
or the paint color on my walls in the cottage...
or right now i am thinking...
it's a Monday...
do i want to get dressed?
or do i work from home in my jammies...
{usually on Mondays i am in jammies ALL DAY...}
btw
When i was leaving for home after CHA i had big plans...
what i was "going" to do when i got home...
then i got sick...
so the plans got de-railed...
but when i felt better after what felt like a week waisted away being sick...
i went back to the TODO list...
started out with gusto...
then last week on Wednesday i got a tooth ache...
not the oooh i chewed on ice or ate a sweet kind of temporary pain...
this was like major...
throbbing...
want to rip the tooth OUT pain...
again my plans were de-railed...
damit...
i was just getting back into the groove...
Thursday i went to the dentist...
after 2 hours in the chair...
yeah fun right...
i was back home...
my face beat up...
i was out for the count...
i am usually not a baby when it comes to pain...
that is part of the problem here...
i ignored this for too long...
it's Monday...
my mouth and face still hurt...
how much advill can a person take?
anyway,
i am back on the track...
making a new TODO list...
designing classes...
writing descriptions...
taking photos...
creating with Vintage Whimsy today...
i love it...
not like in an arrogant way...
but in the way you look at one of your kids eyes way...
knowing you created them...
kinda way...
happy...
warm...
proud...
kinda way...
so to you who read my blog...
thanks for hanging in there with me...
life is crazy...
sometimes we are in charge...
sometimes we are brought to our knees...
reminded who's the boss...
today i am the boss...
jammies it is...
staying in all day...
getting back on track...
checking off one thing at a time...
listening to Adele...
blasting it...
loving it...
creating...
being happy for Monday...
the start of a new week...
love that...
hope you have a great day...
create something beautiful...
kiss kiss

Glad you are feeling better! Thanks for this post, needed it! Work has been terrible and it's carried me into a sulky mood even when I'm not at the office and I need to snap out of it! I have even noticed that my one cocktail a month has turned into 4 in this past month and so I need to not let that creep up any higher because of all the stress! So, thanks for the reminder how life happens and we need to get back on track! BTW, your box is packed up and still sitting on my guest bedroom bed. Yep, sitting there with your address marked out cause I wrote it wrong. Yep...still there waiting for me to put a new address on it. And take it to the Post Office! Going to make it happen this week! I am going to be positive this week so I can turn things around like you have!! Glad you got the extra set of keys made, but sorta glad you didn't have them then cause it was the laugh I needed that day ;) Love you sweet friend!! Ohhh, gotta go to the SheArt site and login to see what Christy has to say for our first day!! hugs!!! Ok, I'm done rambling!! xoxo

Enjoy your jammie day. It sounds like you've sure earned it.
Glad to hear that you've gotten a spare key too ;)
Posted by: Tona | February 28, 2011 at 11:23 AM
So glad you have extra keys now. I has a similar situation years ago. Locked my self out of my house twice in 3 days.In my garage, I actually had to climb up on a latter, pull myself up into the attic, with a flashlight. Find my way through the attic the the back of the house and to the attic access in my master bedroom closet. I had to lower the stairs and climb down. This was not fun, and I am scared to death to climb up on latter. Needless to say right after the second time I went and had extra keys made.

finally got to your blog today - really cool to read - always is. I am one of those ones who was in Christchurch, NZ last week (my home town) when the earthquake shook! what a horrible experience. I took my 2 girls (15 &13) & myself & drove for 2 days (the day after the shake) to stay with family friends. I understand when you say life gets derailed !! totally - our lives are upside down. But one has to be thankful for what you do have have - not what you don't have. We weren't injured & are all safe. Thats whats most important. So just start that list again, as we all do & it will get done. Take care Tracey
