Here we go!

Why another blog? I already have a private blog for friends and family to stay updated on our baby (who has special medical needs– see my profile) and a blog for the charity we’ve set up in honor of their support (www.ourabigail.blogspot.com), so why another one? Don’t I have enough to do?

That’s EXACTLY why I have another one. I feel the need to be held accountable for the things on my to-do list. If I’m going to say it, I need to DO it, so hopefully this will help me practice what I preach. I’ve also learned a lot this year, which should have been the happiest but was the hardest. I’ve attempted to get through it all with style and grace, but it was more like on a wing and a prayer! And LOTS of help!

Here are the major areas I’m going to focus on, with help from you, of course:

• being thrifty and environmentally sound (yes, the two CAN co-exist!)
• channeling my inner recessionista– how do you maintain style on a budget?
• tackling my house to-do list, and blogging about my misadventures in DIY
• staying organized to maximize my time (and devote more to the little one)
• cooking healthy meals on a budget, and finding the time to do so

Alright, here we go… wish me luck!

Dreamer, thinker, + lemon squeezer; you'll usually find me clutching a mug of coffee, glue gun, fandeck of paint colors, and a child at any given time. This mom of two (and wife to one) loves to share freshly squeezed ideas for home and family. Join the adventure as we learn most lemons can indeed become lemonade-- with generous amounts of sweetness, perspective, and love.
