Wow! I have no idea even how to explain where the time went.
I just to view my blogging as therapy. I needed to write my thoughts down in some way in order to stay somewhat sane. I'm really not sure how over a year went by without one blog post.
Life doesn't stop. Not even for a second. No matter what you're doing, who you're with... what planet you're on. It keeps going. Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever catch up. Once you have kids it passes even quicker.
I have a list of things I want to do. Will I ever get to it... I'm not sure. This year I am going to try. I am going to try and cross off as many things that I can. Not a bucket list, but a YOU MUST ACCOMPLISH list. Maybe that will give me more motivation.
I started reading a "self-help" book... you know, one of those books you start reading after the new year because you want to find a way to better yourself more so than last year? Well, I'm only 4 days in but I feel better already! (Maybe, it's that I'm finally in my 2nd trimester and I'm not feeling nauseous. Who knows!)
Back to the book... It's "365 Positive Ways to Start Your Day." I always do things backwards so I do it every night. Go figure!
Today was about saying "DO" instead of "TRY." I didn't realize how much of a difference that made! There are so many things that I try to do, but I don't. I just get so busy with everything else that I just forget. I plan to get it done the following day... and the next thing I know it's 2014.
Today's Affirmation is to set smart goals and take action.
S. Specific
M. Measurable
A. Attainable
R. Realistic
T. Timely
I will blog 2-3 times a week. About anything. Life. Love. Kids. Food. Whatever.
I will bring the kids baby books up-to-date. (Yes, I know... My kids are young. Their books, however, are blank...still.)
I will spend more alone time with my husband.
I will be more hands on in whatever I am doing and STOP burying my nose in my phone.
This list could go on for days. It really could. It's all about making progress and not overwhelming yourself so you eventually give up. These will be my main ones for now, but I will continue to add.
3:00 AM Rambles at it''s finest.
Good Night Folks.
Life after us. This is my everyday life as a tattooed momma of 3, most favorite daughter, craziest sister, an aunt 10 times, and a dreamer… I am a memory hoarder, volunteer, impatient believer, and a beer drinker. My favorite thing to do is sleep. We live in a tiny home, we eat McDonald’s and I dream of life without folding laundry. Almost divorced. Follow me on this new journey after us... and finding myself, again.

Hello Stranger!
Trying to understand my place in this life. Knowing it's my temporary home makes me rethink the way I have treated some people. I try to have a heart of gold, but at the same time I have an inner struggle of peace. I am determined to change the world. Cupcakes with beer.... the struggle is real.

Good morning, Mallory! I have a (chevron covered) notebook for 2014. I sectioned it out for things I want to accomplish personally, around the house, professionally and with the kids and my husband. We'll see how it goes! It'll probably give me lots of blog fuel. :)
