Crazy Beautiful Week!

I think my life can be described by Darryl Worley's chorus "I love this crazy, tragic, Sometimes almost magic, Awful, beautful life." I have had another one of those weeks and most of it is brought on myself. The week started off with cleaning up the area behind the couch in the living room to make room for my craft desk that was upstairs and not being used. Since we moved it downstairs I have used it more than the in the six months it was upstairs.
Then we got a crib for Bailey and Dave put that up the other night so this little crazy curly haired girl could spend the night with us. She loves her new bed and the dogs love that they can see her through the slats.
And then yesterday we got a twin day bed with a trundle and an old rocking chair from the store. We took all Bailey's old baby stuff (swing, bouncy seat, etc) there and loaded the chair and the bed in the rain last night. Left the mattresses for this morning. Now I have tons of work to get the rest of the guest room cleaned out so we can put the daybed in there.

And I am having a Father's Day and Brandon's birthday get together tomorrow. Right now you can't see the top of my dining room table so I have some work to do. I don't know what I am going to fix as my main dish either. Better get busy. Boo is still sleeping and I have a little over an hour before I have to leave for work. Have a great Saturday!

10 Things You Love About Your Life
April 22nd, 2008
Sometimes we’re so busy moaning and groaning about the stresses in our lives, wishing for things we can’t have or the life we should have had that we forget to appreciate how lucky we are to be alive. So what makes your life wonderful?

  1. My granddaughter Bailey.
  2. My three kids.
  3. My best friend and soul mate Dave.
  4. My family. I am blessed to have a wonderful relationship with my mom and dad.
  5. My friends. I am also blessed to have a few great friends.
  6. My animals. We have two dogs and three cats and they make me feel loved all day long.
  7. My home. I love my house, I love decorating and keeping my house clean. I love the chaos when all the kids are here. But mostly I love the love I feel in my home.
  8. My freedom. And there are different kinds of freedom. Freedom from a full time, Mon-Fri kind of job, freedom from a toxic relationship, freedom of our country.
  9. My crafts. Over the years my crafts have been my therapist. They have kept me sane and now I love being able to relax and enjoy the creativity of them.
  10. This one seems kind of silly but I love my TV and DVR. I love knowing that at any time day or night I can find something I really want to watch.
