The Domestic Goddess

Have you ever met one of "those" women? You know the put together one. House is always clean, she bakes, cooks, sews, crafts, decorates, gardens and still has enough energy and time to take care of her kids and her husband? You know that womnn? Well, until now I have never wanted to be her. But as I have been reading random blogs I have this admiration for those women. Whose organization skills are above and beyond anything that I currently know. Yes, I can cook, yes, I clean my house, sure, I can whip up a cupcake now and then. But what I didn't realize is how much I would enjoy being a wife and how much I want to be a mother and how much I want to be that put together women who can do it all. I know, that isn't very progressive of me to want to be a great homemaker. But I do believe I can have the career and still be a great housewife. Now I understand the stigma, and that a lot of women overdo it all and don't leave enough time for themselves and give everything they have to their family. I am not talking about that woman, and let me tell you if I have enough time to watch three-four hours of television a night I have enough time to add in some things to my life that I think will make me happier.


Now, the key is to figure out how to do it, how to balance it all. I know this will be a work in progress but I am willing to do the work. I will let you know how it goes.

Another craft here I come

So, I have always wanted to learn how to knit. I have some friends who do it and I have always been jealous when they talk about working on their blankets, scarves etc. Therefore, I decided I was going to teach myself, off of you tube videos no less. Now, I have tried to start many different crafts in my life, scrap booking, sewing, painting..the list goes on and on. My patience level unfortunately has made me stop on all occasions. So here I go again, wish me luck that I can stick with it and make my ultimate goal, a blanket :o)

Reigning in the Craziness

So, when I started this blog a short couple of months ago I thought that it would be a great way to get out my frustration on our journey of trying to conceive, and it has. But now when I think about writing in the blog I think about other things, my family, my dogs, my husband, my life and I realized my life is not only about trying to conceive it is about so many other things. Yes, that is a huge part of our life right now but there is so much more to our life. So many lovely, happy moments that I would love to capture here. So I have decided to change the concept of this blog. I will still write about our struggles but also our good times so that way I have a record of this wonderful life I am living.
