Vintage on line

In an effort to be my best me this year, I am trying to find focus in all aspects of my life. There is no telling how much time I lose by running around in circles and not finishing one thing, before I move on to the next. I'm sure none of you can relate to that.


School starts back tomorrow, and I love my girls, but, well, thank God. Between Sweet Hubby's vacation and the girls, I have had 23 days of getting nothing accomplished. But who's counting. I can't wait to dive right into the projects as soon as I see bus fumes.


I'm just dying to start a project for a giant blackboard in my kitchen but since it is not in the interest of being my best me, I am going to put it off a bit longer so that I can finish some furniture painting projects in Emma's room. I think 4 years is long enough for her bookshelf to be unfinished. I'd find that embarrassing if I didn't know perfectly well that all of you have a little secret that is just as dirty as that one.

So clearly I'm still struggling with the focus thing or I'd be posting pictures of painted bookshelves instead of chalkboards. I guess I'll justify it by telling myself that it's motivation for me to get the distasteful jobs done, so that I can get to the fun stuff. Baby steps folks.
