a fresh coat of paint

I love the smell of newly painted walls!!!  It brings my senses to a high level of clean and feeling of starting over....but man does that old paint job tell a story in an of itself!!

we have started the transformation of Kaely's room!!!  She is so excited and I have to say, I am too!!!  Pics to come... so so fun

What do you have to be stressed about

I was asked today "what do you have to be stressed about" that made me mad at first then it made me think!
My Husband
My kids
My kids whole existence
My existence
the welfare of my family
my house
the laundry
things in and around the house that are not done
meals
the health of my family

These are all things that at times really stress me out!!!!  They make me happy, sad, excited, nervous, intimidated, over flowing with love, comforted, exhausted, giddy!  I have a slough of feelings and emotions that these things in my life bring to me on a daily basis. This is my job, my work, this is all I know!!!  and believe me I wouldn't have it any other way, but I think I'm allowed some breaking down moments!!!  It comes with having responsibilities!!!
I read this tonight and it was AMAZING!!!!

we r off to Flagstaff

we are having a Gardner Family reunion in Flagstaff this weekend and EVERYONE will be there!!!  We haven't been all together in a long time, this is well overdue and I cant wait!!!
