Okay second post...

So I guess I will introduce you to the rest of my family. A little more about me. I am about to turn 30, in a month. I have actually felt like I was in my 30's for awhile so I am not expecting much of a change. I have a lot of things I want to accomplish that I thought would be done by now so i have to get moving on them. I have a fictional book I am working on that i want finished, I want to lose my extra weight, I want to straighten out my finances better, and I want to in general better myself. I specifically want to work on my list of things to change about myself.

I will share more about myself as we get more comfortable with each other!

Now for my hubbie, Dave is a techi. He is a computer technician to be specific, a trouble shooter. His specialty is figuring out what someone else cant! We met in school, although we didn't date until after we graduated. We were married in June of 1997. Very hot wedding! Dave and I are so different- definitely opposites attracted! He is not outspoken, I am. He is not full of anxiety, I am. He is not a leader, I can be. He is stubborn, but doesn't often display it. He is calm and just easy going, I am not! I think he is excited to read my blog, I wonder what he thinks I will write. We fight, argue, make up, we are friends, sometimes not so much, we laugh together and raise our children together.

I have a nephew and two beautiful nieces! I love my family! I have a few good friends, but a few is enough for me! Although I am blogging and sharing my life this is not something that comes easy to me. I am outspoken but not with people I am not very comfortable with. I take a long time to warm up to someone!

I am currently working on my schedule for the coming school year. I am excited but also a little overwhelmed. I am adding a lot of work and increasing our daily schedule by at least two hours! I really am satisfied with the curriculum I have chosen and feel good about some more intense organization I am adding this year! All our stuff is neatly in binders with dividers and the spines neatly labeled! Yeah. That might not sound like much but organization is not my forte'!!! I simply put struggle with it!

I went from having a 12x20 school house dedicated to school to an 8x6 portion of room with other stuff in it! Not an easy feat but I will manage with my newly acquired organizational skills!

okay, more tommorow!
