Oh Time managment and other such musings....

Ok so here we go again! A list of what I want to improve about my self. Ready? Here we go... Time Management... why is this such a hard concept? The boy is 6.5 and for the most part self sufficient. So why do I feel guilty if I don't spend my every waking and honestly sleeping breath with him? Finding time to play wife, mother, photographer, travel agent, crafter, house keeper and sometimes blogger... I have joined on the Happy Planner train although in all honesty, I really just do it because it is a quick craft that makes me happy... I'm really not using it to its full potential. Self Esteem... Oh Good Lord where to start? I have only this week realized that my self confidence is low. I have to say that I have the most amazing husband who builds me up in such a wonderful way! The problem is that even though he is saying sweet words of encouragement I constantly think he if full of shit. So in addition to the Time Management I intend to work on my Self Confidence.  I h

Hmmm, how do you sum it all up?

I mean.... Where to start?!? Since I last posted, the county has gone to hell in a hand basket! I have never in my life been embarrassed to be an American. NEVER. Well given the actions of President Trump, I am. Although the good thing that has come from this is that I have been more politically active then I have ever been in my entire life. I participated in my first "protest" here in Lexington, I was a proud pussy hat wearing nasty woman!! I have also written and called my senators. Also something I have never done before, and to be honest it obviously didn't make a difference. In other news, I have started a new Instagram account if you would like to follow it @nerdymommastitches I have really enjoyed crocheting. It has kept me off line which is honestly a good thing! Otherwise I have completely failed at My Peak Challenge. However the beauty is we can always start again tomorrow. I have com to the conclusion that I can only fix one part of my

Happy Planner makes me Happy!!

As we end the first week of 2017 I have to say that this planner right here is the best thing EVER! My best friend turned me on to this planner after another friend of hers turned her on to it. It seriously has EVERYTHING and a week into it I'm already finding I need the expander rings I mean seriously! It may be starting to become a problem! So why the sudden obsession? Well I have joined My Peak Challenge. Http://www.MPC2017.com  And one of my personal challenges is to get my life organized in all aspects. This one awesome, amazing planner is the best. I am able to track my day, my new healthy recipes, and my exercise and food.  I am also looking at the home planner expansion to help me with another one of my challenges, to get this house back in order!! I mean y'all this house is a mess! So what do I love so much about this planner? 1. Its pretty! I mean seriously it makes me feel productive and happy just looking at it :) 2. There are a thousand and one ways to

New name, Same old me

Ok so its been three years... I believe this is what is known as suicide in the blog world. None the less I am back! Whooty Whoot! So to pick up where we left off, the boy is 5!! How in Gods name did that happen so fast! Nick and I are running a successful photography business and life is pretty awesome! Now that the name has changed what will I be blogging on. Well I'm not sure. Probably a little politics because who can resist bad mouthing TRUMP. My sweet boy and the struggles as we try to conceive another sweet addition. A little photography, and perhaps some cooking/home/crafty stuff. So if your still around THANKS!! If not maybe we can grab a few new people! Love ya! Jess

Slacker

Yup I'm a slacker. But let me tell you this little guy is a little tornado. There is NO rest for the weary! So lets start with me :) I'm fat. Yup thats what I just said I am fat. I am on my way though to not being FAT! I've joined weight watchers and have lost 9 pounds in the last 2 and half weeks. My goal is 100 pounds. So wish me luck! If I can ever get on the band wagon I hope to post a pic every week with measurments and weight. :) Let's see what else is going on? Well my step-grandfather passed away and now I am in the process of trying to sell the house in BFE Kentucky. So wish us luck!!! I'm rambling, I have a sinus infection and it has penetrated my brain. Will post tomorrow on one topic. Hopefuly my brain will function a bit better! :)
