Inaugural Post!!




Hi All!









Welcome to my blog. This is my first post! Woo Hoo! I'd like to say I will post often, but let's be real here. I have three active kids and one active guy to take care of. Not to mention a house, a job, other commitments, and I'd like to think, a life! So, I will post as often as I can. I will aim for three times a week.

For those of you who arrived here via Etsy, YOU ROCK! I think Etsy is the best thing since sliced bread. :) If you arrived here by chance... Hello! Ok, enough already...

A little about me that you won't find in my profile... I'm afraid of spiders, I ride a motorcycle, I'm trying to teach myself to sew... (stay tuned for project pics), I love chocolate, dislike waiting in lines (duh), love vintage, willing to try anything once, struggle daily to maintain balance and love, love, love my family!

All righty then, enough for tonight. I'll probably post tomorrow again, see if I can get the hang of this blogging stuff... I'll leave you with one of my favorite quotes...

Every day do something that will inch you closer to a better tomorrow. Doug Firebaugh

COMMENTS CLOSED!!! I'll be back later with a new post to share the winners :) Thanks to all who entered!! ONE WORLD-ONE HEART I'm proud to announce my One world-One heart giveaway!! This is my first year and I think it's way cool! A Whimsical Bohemian is the hostess for this amazing event and I "pirated" the follwing paragraph of info about the event from her: "The original idea behind this giveaway event was to bring bloggers together from around the world who may never ordinarily meet. It closes the gap of the blog community and enables us to interact, discover new and wonderful people, and in the process possibly win a prize or many prizes along the way. 2007 had roughly 85-90 participants and many connections were made because of it......friendships that are still going strong.We had a strong showing the first year for sure, and then in 2008 we had just about tripled that number.This is more than wanting to win something.......that is only the means.....

Dreams...

I have lots of dreams.  They include everything from sheep to road bikes to my dog actually listening to me... I also LOVE to take pictures.  I mean LOVE .  Sometimes I go weeks without taking a single picture. Weird right?  Why not do something I feel that passionately about, everyday? Here are some of my most recent pictures: I live in Wisconsin and feel blessed that there are so many beautiful things for me to take pictures of.  When you're obsessed with barns and farm animals like I am, they're but a country road away! I'm going to slowly try to find myself again.  For the hundredth time.  I am sorry if that is all I write about here on this blog now, but hey - blogs are journals of a sort.  They just happen to be public ;)  Trish
