Hello, blog. It's me Carrie

Hello?

(crickets chirping)

Wow. It's finally happening... my long awaited blog.
I'm excited, yet nervous. Not good at these sorta things...
But's let's give it a shot. Now... where do I start?


I am a 29 year old mom of 2 spoiled rotten and absolutely fantastic kids. My son is 5 and my daughter is 2. They are my pride and joy, and on most days the reason I'm ready to pull my hair out. My husband and I have been together since 2001 and though I love him dearly, I swear he lives to drive me insane. We live in Texas, near Houston. Hubby works crazy hours and is gone often, and I am a stay @ home Mom who also keeps 2 other little ones during the week. Which means I am constantly surrounded by kids! This is when you take in to consideration the name of the blog...

Yep, now you get it.

I've been wanting to do a blog for awhile now and just never could get it rolling. I always got way to into the whole "set up" (name, looks, topic, etc) of the idea and always overwhelmed myself and give up. THIS time is different. With the help of my dear and talented friend @ Minx Designs, she has hooked me up! I am so grateful for her help and very impressed. If you're interested or in need of a blog makeover, go see her! Be sure to tell her I sent you! =)

So my intent for this blog, is simply just a space for me to be me. A place I can freely boast about my kids, complain about my kids, and talk about my life as a real life desperate housewife. I also want to display some of my creativity, share ideas, and hopefully inspire others with some crafty projects. To sum it up, pretty much any of my random everyday happenings. I am hoping that this blog will be good for me. Giving me something to contribute to the world, and not feel so isolated as a stay @ home mom. I am bound and determined to make this into something awesome! I am very hard on myself, but I really hope I can live up to that expectation!


Stay tuned... good things are coming!
