Relax
This week has been a week where I've felt like I was going crazy. I've thrown keys in a dumpster, left a book at the dentist, spilled a class of Crystal Light all over my floor, fridge, freezer, etc., Tried to dilute cleaner and put four cups of cleaner in with 10 oz. of water instead of 1 oz. of cleaner with four cups of cleaner! Yeah...Anderson and Mark are glad they're still living and I'm glad I didn't burn an acid hole in my kitchen counters with my turbo cleaning solution I absentmindedly concocted! So all of that to say I realized I needed some time to myself or I was going to lose it in one way or another!
In the evenings this week I've been designing some bibs for friends who have had babies and then last night I made some gift tags and bookmarks. This is crazy but I feel SO much better. For me, being creative really calms me down and makes me feel more like "me!" Just for fun here are a few of the things I made last night!

So...to all of you over committed women and mother's out there...it's the weekend...go do something YOU like to do. Even if it's for thirty minutes you'll feel better...I promise! Don't work while your kids are napping or come home from work and take time for yourself. It's worth it for you and your family around you!

I have also had my trouble with cleaning solutions lol. I bleached parts of my carpet with bleach diluted with water. I thought it was diluted down enough to where it wouldn't bleach the carpet, but I was wrong. We've had to strategically place the furniture to hide the bleached out spots LOL.
