Getting Started

I have created this blog because I didn't want to mix my ideas for cleaning, organization, crafts, fitness, and budgeting on my other blog: Confessions of a Twin Momma.

After losing our twin boys, I realized that more than anything I want to be a stay-at-home mom, but right now, finances and the nature of my life don't make this possible.  My goal over the next few months as we pursue other options of having a family is to get our household to a point where being a SAHM is feasible and not NEARLY as overwhelming as it would be to me right now.  As part of that is healthy eating and fitness because I feel that if I'm healthy from those standpoints than I will be better off and a better mom.

Now I must say that our house has been ultimately under renovation since we bought it.  There are so many things STILL not done.  I started blogging about that journey over at Our Home Adventures.  I do plan on keeping ALL THREE of these blogs updated on top of working for the next few months, pursuing our parenthood dreams, and completing each and every one of the things I post in this blog!

Some of my goals are....
Get my house completely cleaned and organized (outside of our crazy renovation).
Start a successful Etsy business with all my crafting.
Create and stick to a budget (and pay off all the small outstanding debts we have).
Start monthly meal planning (to save money and time).
Run a half marathon by October 2013.

There are more, I'm sure, but that's it for now...it's quite a task list though!!

I will be creating a few different pages and themes to go along with the blog and try to make at least one post a day.  That's the goal!  We will see how this goes, but please, any feedback is definitely appreciated!
