Inaugural

So this is my new outlet of expression. I really don't want to be one of those people who writes every six months and apologizes about it, explaining how busy their life has been. I guess that explains the title...this will require some balancing. That said, I think this will be fun. It would certainly seem so given all the blogs that I now read regularly. Right now, I am recovering from the terrible respiratory virus that everyone seems to have around here. I actually missed work yesterday which I always hate to do. I am weary of being sick and ready to have some fun this weekend...or at least make it out of pajamas. I already have a large list of feel better activities....read story to the babies, Target for a new bathroom curtain to match my son's latest painting (the new art display), and Lowe's to begin some container gardening. I really like the idea of container gardening....it's almost like accessorizing an outfit. Find what you like and put it together. I like the simplicity of it-"real" gardening has always seemed like the most daunting task to me, what with all the mulch and pulling of weeds. Too much work. Life is easier to balance when it's simple!
