I would probably be far more intense if I didn't work full time and go to school. Would it be obnoxious if I talked my husband into a craft room/workshop? My craft cabinet is almost at capacity. I secretly long to be Martha Stewart. My dream is to be an accomplished photographer, graphic artist, interior carpenter and woodworker, painter, scrap-booker, stamper and interior designer. Oh how I love being crafty and artistic. Oh how I love projects.
Project Junkie
Saturday, July 10, 2010
I have decided that I like projects. I just plain love 'em. If my children have a project due for school that is remotely creative, I get giddy. If something needs to be assembled - despite the fact that I have a husband in the trades - I am ALL over it. I like hands-on, do it yourself projects. This includes anything that involves planning details. I also love planning parties and decorating. My latest small projects include door posters for my fifteen year old daughter and her camp roommate and a tent for my one year old. My larger projects include planning my son's doubleheader for double digits 10th birthday party and my oldest's 16th country western style party.
Time to Breathe

Fourth of July. Happy Birthday to the United States of America! What a great time to be festive with the family. This year, both my husband and I had a three day weekend. Well, part of the family. Our oldest spent the weekend at her friend's new house. We purchased a great playhouse for the 1 year old, attended a parade, set off smoke bombs and snappers with the kids, and cooked out on the grill. A lot. We had breakfast and dinner on the grill. It was delicious! My poor diet is suffering. What an amazing weekend with my lovely husband and children without a schedule to follow. Time to breathe. :)
