why hello there!

things clear to me

a list because i love lists:

1. one thing is at least consistently consistent...i've been completely inconsistent with just about everything.
2. putting unnecessary pressure on myself to do any ONE thing everyday is just.too.much
3. hence project 365...i made it what two weeks?  lol
4. my life is pretty crazy so why not throw another puppy into the mix...make it extra special
5. wanting the said second puppy is definitely my inner self trying to fill a sad void i've felt over the past year
6. his name is bruno and expected home any minute now.
7. my girls are on vacation and have a combined three projects due for school...i am completely irritated by this!!!!  wtf!  it took ME three hours to finish a stinkin' music report today ;)
8. i need to change the look of my blog...it's time.
9. maybe then i'll feel like coming over here!
10. i'm making manhattan clam chowder for my dad tomorrow...hope it's good!

12. i highly recommend this children's book ...
13. i hate that my kids have to grow up...makes me sad yet proud at the same time.
