Over a year? Can't be....

Have you really had to put up with me and this blog that long? I cannot believe it. I had a chance to take a look at my post from October 19, 2009 and I guess this post is a pretty good place to start to understand how I ended up being the Mermaid I am.....and yes, Virginia, that tattoo really is my blog button :) She was my 40th birthday present to myself. Go me.

I've had a really busy but good year and as we get ready to go into another winter I am starting to make real headway into all the projects on the house I have wanted/ needed to complete. That being said I have only painted out one small section of the stair rails (I have realized one cheek of my ass might actually be made of velcro....the other side being firmly attached to our sectional). We have the contractor coming this Saturday to install all our laminate flooring in the 3rd floor down and I am ever so excited about that! Cannot wait to post some *afters* on that one.

Mental note: take *befores* dummy.

So, I guess I'm here to say THANKS for reading, all 23 of you....love your stuff Ladies. I wanna be each of you when I grow up....

In the meantime, here is a little slice of what my kids and their friends get up to:
