This one is for you Bridget...

So Bridget wants people to blog more. I get that. My excuse (not that I need an excuse not to blog) is that at the end of a long, often hard day the last thing I want to do is tell the world about that long hard day. I know that it is cathartic to some people to write about their day. I'm just not one of those people. I've never been much of a journal keeper because I end up looking back at what I write and feel stupid.

I do however want to start blogging more about my quilting. I would really love to make my quilting into a business. I feel like blogging about quilting would help get my business out there. Problem is that all of that requires a lot of time and commitment. I don't have enough of either at the time. I would really love to get things started now but having an Isaac makes that difficult, really difficult. I'm sure having another child or two will make that even more difficult so for the moment I'm working it all out in my mind and biding my time. Hopefully it will be sooner than later that I take the leap.

Until then I'll be plenty busy doing a lot of this...

My boy loves him some dirt.

 

And rocks.

He's been "helping"us do some decluttering.

  A few weeks ago I was feeling like our home was just so cluttered. We have so many things and we are blessed to have everything that we need and so many things that we want but it was just taking over. It's no good to feel like you're outgrowing your house when it's plenty large and there are only 3 in your family. So we've been sorting, donating, recycling, and trashing lots of things. It feels great!

My new quilting frame. Now that I'm getting the hang of it I like it :)
