It's never a good sign when you sit down to blog and you start your first sentence and delete it. Three times. It's actually a sign that I have nothing to blog about so I should shut my computer and go fold some laundry, but I'm not one to quit so easily and I also hate folding laundry so I'll just keep plugging away, writing about nothing. As usual.
My life as I know should officially be slowing down. For that, I am ecstatic. I'm excited to have normal nights and normals mornings. I'm excited to be able to schedule some time for work rather than sitting down and frantically working at every chance I have. I'm excited to try to keep my house clean. Although it will never happen, it's exciting to at least think about. I'm also excited about being a better blogger. I see in my bloglines that there are bloggers that blog multiple times a day! I wish I could do that, but I think I would end up telling you way too much about my life which basically consists of my indecision on whether or not I'm going to grow out Ariel's bangs (I change my mind three times a day) and how good I am getting at bowling on the Wii.
Important things, no doubt.
I'll just focus on blogging once a day. Wouldn't that be nice?
Speaking of blogging -- ATTENTION NW Indiana bloggers, we are meeting up again! Since the last meet up was such a success and there were so many bloggers who could either not make it or who didn't get the invitation, we are doing it again.
Mark your calenders for Sat. October 6th - 5:00 pm. If you are interested, e-mail me at foldinglaundry AT gmail DOT com. or you can e-mail my lovely friend Crooked Eyebrow at crookedebyebrow AT gmail DOT com. We will then tell you the exact location of our meet up. We hope to see you there! Feel free to invite other bloggers on your blogs!
Also, in bloggyland- did you know the girls at 5 Minutes for Mom are giving away a PINK DYSON??? Those are two beautiful words, if you ask me.
I think I would wear a matching outfit if I won this.
I think I would also actually start vacuuming.
That would be something new.
If you'd like to win it, go here. You have a really good chance of winning, as of right now, there are 1400 entries and another week of the contest. So -- good luck! (I do hope you sense my sarcasm there.) The contest ends on October 1, which is next Monday. Which means next week is October.
What the heck? How did that happen? It's almost Christmas!!!
I need a drink.
(Speaking of pink, you should see this ADORABLE pink car I found at their store, it may be one of the cutest kid's cars I have ever seen!)
AND FINALLY! I was recently given an award from Yes, They Are All Mine. The You Make Me Smile Award. Isn't that a great award? You are so sweet, thank you!
Awesome! Emailing you now!

Ummmm, it's been so long that I forget what "normal" nights and mornings are!

I would love me that vacuum!! And I hear ya on the being too busy. And honestly, I love your blog and the fact that you write about "nothing" - I think its interesting. And you make me smile everytime I read you, so keep writing :)
I wish I could more consistent but my real life gets in the way unfortunately (or I guess maybe thats a good thing?)
Anyway, I am considering the 2008 weight challenge although I didn't do so hot in the last one....
Thanks for visiting me.

Once a day blogging seems like a pipe dream sometimes, doesn't it??
I just went in today and created 10 new posts...with nothing but titles. Hopefully if I brain dump into the post title it will remind me when I've got 1400 other things going on what the heck I was going to talk about...

There may be almost 1500 people ahead of me but I am still hoping to win it! LOL
You did great for nothing to blog about. I have to agree with you- where DID Sept. go?

Bummer! DaHubby's outta town that weekend plus we received Flicka's first non-family birthday party invite for that same time on that Saturday. Maybe next time...
How are you feeling?
And, how did your fund raiser go?

I was on the Moms of Grace site when I saw your blog's name. It remind me that I should be doing other things than on the computer. It is a great name for a blog. Also, I wanted to tell you Good Luck on winning the Dyson. They are great. I have the Dyson Animal 07. It works wonderful.
