Ouch

Ouch! I haven't been here in a long time. Consistency is my downfall. I keep thinking I'll conquer it, but it keeps creeping back, or soaring back as the case may be.

A few exciting things have happened in the interval. I am now a Stella and Dot Stylist, which is going to be a lot of fun. I love baubles and bangles and, hopefully, this will help me get out and socialize more. I tend to be a homebody and time just passes by and I don't realize I haven't been out in ages. I also am an independent consultant for a great "smelly-good" company called Perfectly Posh and am trying to get that up and going as well. Regardless of what happens, I should look good and smell marvelous.

My son is coming home for a visit before he heads to Korea for a year. So much better than the last time he headed off for a while (Afghanistan), but still, a year is a long time. I'll miss him. We're actually straightening the house up a bit for his visit - though, I don't know why. He did grow up here. Straightening in this house is quite a challenge. We have more books than there are blades of grass in our yard, I think that's really not an understatement. Every time I go to put something away or find a space for something, the intended space is full of books. Some are homeschool books which we probably could get rid of but so many of them hold wonderful memories and there are the future grandchildren, right?

Anyway, sorry I've been inconsistent. I'm moving forward with a plan to be more diligent in getting it all done, if the books don't side-track me.
