New Year New Beginnings.........seriously.

Yes, I have tried blogging in the past. I never could figure out what my niche would be or how I could possibly draw people to my page. I was so concerned with having the best blog that it got overwhelming. I finally walked away. Took a year off and figured something out. Reality is. My life is nuts! Absolutely crazy! Let me in on the craziness of my life:

I am a mom of two grown kids but I'm only 40. What? How did that happen! My daughter is in college. My son is in the US Army. Ok great now add on Military Mom stress. Fun! Got married to a wonderful guy last year...had to move it up because guess what his plant announced it was closing and he could be jobless as soon as September. So our October wedding was moved up to August...but I pulled that together. And then....we found out no he wouldn't lose his job but we had to move from Illinois to the Gulf Shores of Alabama! Plus no winter! Well sort of no winter. But still leaving every family member and friend we have far behind has been a bit of a troubling decision for us. But we did it. Our first full day in Alabama was the last day of 2014.

What did I learn in 2014. People you love won't always love you back. NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY WHEN YOU PLAN SOMETHING WILL FALL APART! Yes i did capitalize that for a reason. And over all, if you can drive 12 hours with family and not kill each other you rock as a family! Seriously though. An over loaded vehicle and three people all getting hungry needing to pee and needing to sleep. Trying.

I know next year our new home is going to puke of Christmas because we didn't have one this year. Mainly because it was all in storage waiting for our move. We close on our house soon so this whole corporate living thing shouldn't be more than a couple of weeks. But here we sit in Daphne, AL. Enjoying amazing weather. OK maybe locals think it is cool. It has been in the 40s and 50s since we got here.....but back home where we came from.....it has been in the teens and twentys.......so its nice. :O) Saturday I hear in the 70s woot woot. I feel the beach coming on.

So what will this blog be about. Honestly, I have no idea. I am not making any promises that I won't vent on here.....I am not promising that I won't talk about stuff that I feel is important that you may think is dumb. But at the end of the day, this is my spot. And hey if you find some useful information then great.

I know one thing for sure....definitely will be a lot of pinterest recipes and projects on here. As we are buying a house, and on a budget I am quite certain we will be having some great diy projects occurring. (maybe not right this moment, read above we are in temporary housing.
