Well If you are wondering about the crazy music selection on this blog.............................Cake!!! Cake???Cake!!!
Here it is folks! Young Miss is on the "Chuck" television show countdown! We don't watch much TV in this house. In fact we don't and have not had the TV hooked up to watch since the goverment big wigs decided we should all go digital....We don't have a converter box.......We watch the few shows we do watch on the computer. Yes folks the little laptop 14" screen is our only working "boob tube" in the house. And for us "oldies" the volume on these little laptops not so hot. Anyway. So TV in our house ,Not So Much......But don't stand between Young Miss and her obsession for "Chuck".
Is it the every so slight bent toward geekdom in Chuck himself? Is it the kind heart of the Chuck character? Is it the Chuck workplace with all the loveable geeky dorkdom? Or is it the "Nerd Herd" form of uber cool transport that sends her heart racing? Who knows? Shes not telling! But the countdown has been going on for 6 weeks plus now. And we are down to 5 days and counting......Ssshhh. Don't tell Young Miss. We've been counting too!!!! Let the "Chuck" fest begin baby!!!!

New Years
Happy New Years All!
I am very excited that we are starting a new year. It gives me a chance to send 2009 packing. It has been a very tough and difficult year here and we are hoping and praying 2010 will be more secure and fruitful for our family. That said here are the things we are going to be focusing on in the New Year:
We are going to work on getting ourselves and our business operations more streamlined, so we can focus on those things that work and eliminate the things that don't.
We will be doing the same for our personal lives things that don't work are going bye bye and new traditions and new patterns of interacting with others will be our goal.
We will blog at least 4 times a week
We will get even more frugal
And lastly we will not be sucked into drama that is brought on by codependent and irresponsible relatives any more. Sometimes you just have to create new family ties elsewhere. This is the great lesson we have learned from 2009. And it is freeing and We already feel a great burden lifting. SOOOO.............
2010 For us will be more organized, simplified, frugal and personal relationship freeing............It feels so good even saying it.
Don't you just love fresh starts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A LITTLE ABOUT ME
Over at the blog luvinthemommyhood http://www.luvinthemommyhood.com/ she has a questionaire going. I thought since we were getting to "know" one another on this new blog that I would "give it whirl" KWIM. So from her questionaire here's a little, about little old me.....For your FYI this one is about Kim, since this is a family blog. Just so you know. William will have one up on Tuesday about himself . And we will have to see if Big Miss wants to participate or not?....Big Miss (Leira) can be a little shy at times. Maybe we can coax her out of the coat closet(shhhhh! no ones suppose to know she still likes to read in there....Keep it quiet okay?)
Making : Several new tutorials for my blog, more aprons and upholstering a bench seat
.
Cooking :Seasonal: lots corn, zucchini in EVERYTHING LOL! and green beans, green apples coming out my eyeballs.
Drinking : Water as always.
Reading: Kitchen Junk(book), The Bluebird and the Sparrow
Wanting: More Time and my sewing room put back together again.
Looking: At my junked up sewing room. We are in the middle of make-over here.What a mess!
Playing: Going to Utah State Fair this week.
Wasting: Too much time trying to figure out new cameras(look I'm old school, give me nothing automatic and real film. I know. I know. Get out of the dark ages all ready , right!)
Sewing: new aprons for the shop, new member blog give away pouches and a suit for church for me for a change.
Wishing: I was young and could still go 4 days straight with no sleep.
Enjoying: The weather being a little bit cooler.
Waiting: fall
Liking: The new cabinet we found for FREE for the sewing room make-over, (after I had spent over two years looking and finding nothing and giving up and buying two Ikea Hemnes yellow glass front cabinets for $500.00 plus tax, only to have my husband open one of the boxes and then promptly have the studio/art space neighbor, a very talented, but somewhat cranky woodworking artist offer up an old oak table for money and this lovely OLD glass door legal office bookcase for free....Hubby promptly said yes and we immediately returned the boxes back to IKEA. Needless to say my hubby was none too pleased with the back and forth from Ikea when, as he put it, "See, see, see, maybe if you had just a little more patience you could have saved me a couple of trips" Patience?, after two years he has to be JOKING , right? Let's just say to KNOW HIM is to LOVE him!!! LOL!!
Wondering:When I am going to make time to get stuff posted on Etsy this week.
Loving: That my husband is off work from his desk job for three weeks.
Hoping:That he does not wear me out too badly with all the things he wants to get done in the next few weeks.
Marvelling: That with all the time I have spent on the computer and learning to work our camera, that DH has not lost his cool yet.
Needing: To do more canning, get some more paperwork done (when you run a business and do your own bookkeeping it is never ending)
Smelling: new shipment of lavender I just recieved
Wearing: shirt and skirt
Following: blogs only, not watched TV in this house in almost a year.
Noticing:That the leaves seem to be changing color faster this year by at least two weeks.
Knowing: That my husband and daughter love me very much.
Thinking: I wonder if, with this level of togetherness over the next three weeks, who will want to "kill" who first? Maybe "kill" is too harsh, but you get my drift....We don't actually fight but we are both very stubborn at times and very open about how we feel...Things can get terse every once in a while.
Bookmarking:More creative websites
Opening: Boxes of fabric I have had stored for literally years.
Giggling:Over the fact that my DH had a hard time sleeping last night because he is over excited about having three weeks IN A ROW off......He is an adult, REALLY, I SWEAR! LOL!
Feeling: like I am really just starting to make up for lost time from when I was sick.
Well that is two posts in one day. Are you feeling the love? Come share if you have a blog and let me know in comments if you copy and fill out your own question and answer session. I would love to get to know my Blog members a little better. Give me your blog addresses if you post one of these so I can get to know you better. Kim
