I am the proud stay-at-home mom of daughter Saver of Bugs (now out of college and, oh, the loans are due…) and son Spider Bait (college). I’m a critteraholic, plantaholic, avid reader, adore crystals, Nosy Nelly, knitter, crocheter, former and hope to be again runner, and now, blogger.
This was originally supposed to be a simple blog. It’s original purpose was to keep our daughter, Saver of Bugs, up to date on the goings at home. We had already slipped up once – no one had told her that her brother had attained Life Scout. She would not be coming home summers because of a research project and this blog would keep her up to date despite crazy schedules. It’s hard to skype and phone if one’s busy and the other is not. And I suck in the e-mail dept. And -no- I don’t know why it annoys me so.
However, once the discussion got going it took on a life of its own. It is now The Beast of All Things. Thoughts, quotes, fur babies, plants, house projects, exercise, LARPS, you name it, it’s coming. Both daughter and I will be blogging. And since I live in chaos, I decided I wanted order on the blog. Not everyone will be interested in all topics so I am going to title as I go. That way, people can just zip past what they’re not interested in.
- Random Thoughts (Quotes, thoughts, mom’s ramblings)
- Life At Our House (What we’re doing, cooking, crafts, you know – stuff)
- Fur Babies and Other Critters (self explanatory)
- Out In The Yard (plant stuff, bugs, projects,…)
- Home Caring (an attempt to put a positive spin on turning chaos into home again.)
- Movement (our attempt to get our sorry butts back into some semblance of fit)
- Crystals
We won’t be hitting all of these everyday and Saver of Bugs will add her own on her posts. Variety is the spice of life – right? Welcome and enjoy!
