It is not called unemployed . . . it is called Domestic Diva Who Creates Life and Wastes $40

OK . . . so that is the new title I am giving myself!! Only because Harper's new fave joke is "woman you should do it(this can be a variety of jobs such as washing the dog, moving furniture, scrubbing the toilet), you got no jobby job". He says this with not a demure southern Charleston accent but more with a inbred type of accent. He cracks himself up, repeatedly. Take goodness in about 5 years Gracie will be old enough to roll her eyes at him too. Or with my luck she will shriek "daddy you are the funniest man alive" and I will be hanging out with the dog for support.

The baby isn't here yet so I will give him that . . . I should have more free time on my hands now that i am self employed . . .but i think time is like money . . . the more money you make it seems you always find a way to spend it and the time you have the same applies. So with ALL THIS TIME i am supposed to have, where does it go??? Things aren't as clean as I would like them, there is laundry piled up, and my to do list is about 2 pages long with only 2 things crossed off, and my mission to organize my life has become disorganized. All of these thought have been my deep thoughts for the past 4 days as i lay dying of strep throat in bed. Well and once on the kitchen floor when i laid down out of self pity crying because Jeff wasn't being as quick with the meds as he could have.

So last night I felt a little better and decided to embrace my time!!! Why not make homemade ricotta, prosciutto, and spinach ravioli for dinner? So I did last night and they were fab!! Why not repaint my furniture, why not grown a garden!!!??? So, these are my new goals . . . I just want to be quicker, faster, and more like a Domestic Diva! Ha! So at 25 weeks I plan to become more time efficient?? Isn't that just going to make a very non-scheduled newborn seem more stressful. I don't know!! We will see!

We woke this morning to take on my next task!! Growing a garden!! We went out and bought cilantro, basil, oregano, parsley, arugula, bell peppers, jalapenos, onions, 2 types of tomatoes, strawberries, blueberries, and yes even grapes!! I am going to rock this garden!! Cooper and I pose with our new endeavour and the look on my face is because as J was taking the picture he said "and I call this one a HUUUUGGGE waste of $40". I am going to prove him wrong! Or if I fail I will by stuff from the grocery store and act like I plucked it from my garden! Ha!

And speaking of jobs . . . I have been working. Below are some of my new designs. The first one is called the Harper (only because it is his fave and when ever someone expresses love of a piece, it gets named after them!) It is Shell Lucite and Jade. Next is the Grayson (bc it is one of my faves) it is Black Chalcedony and Moss Agate, and last is the Crawford which is Black Onyx and White Topaz! I have to get my website up soon! I also have friends monogramming and sewing too so we will have a wide variety in the store!! Yea!
