So What’s This All About Anyway?

It’s hard to say what this blog with *be* because I’ve never had one before and I’m still not exactly sure where this journey will take me. But I have been thinking about this way too often, for way too many years and now the timing just feels like “now or never”.

Maybe it’s my mid-life crisis—who knows?! I guess it’s cheaper than a makeover or a new car!

Lately I’ve been struggling to find a hobby for ME. I mean, I love shopping and traveling, but with 5 little kids, I’m either short on time or money to indulge myself with either of those. But blogging, it’s cheap, its easy, and it’s therapeutic. Might as well give it a go.

I know I am not the best writer on the internet. Spelling errors drive me nuts but I’m sure I will have some here and there. Grammar…who’s got time for that?! I way overuse “?!” and “…” But that’s my life right now, a series of outbursts, followed by short periods of calmness.

As I was making a list of topics that I hope to cover in this blog (because lists are the BEST!) I realized I’m kind of all over the place! Here are a few things that you may see me write about:

• Family friendly recipes
• Budgeting tips
• Meal plans
• Gift ideas
• Book reviews
• Room makeovers
• General “mom” journaling
• Favorite household items

Things you will NOT see me write about:

• Religion
• Politics

So relax! This is a place of happy and fun! As one of my best friends and I used to always say, “Think positive and expect nothing”. That’s the motto I’ve taken on for this blog. Who knows where it’s going to go. But isn’t that the excitement in starting something new?!

Please join along with me and don’t forget to comment if there is a certain topic you would like me to cover!
