Tired Momma

Today I am just so tired and sleepy, would you like to know why?

My son is sick and threw-up all night long, until the sun was in the sky.

He’s still sick today, he is feeling miserable and sad.

And he still can’t keep anything down, this bug is bad!!

So will we get any sleep at all tonight? I can only hope and pray.

I hope he will feel better and pray that tomorrow’s better than today!

What a pathetic post!! So sorry. My face is burning and just “ow!!”

I can’t keep my eyes open. I’m sorry to say, that this is it for now!

😴😴😴Zzzz…

My friend, Sarah, came over today with her two sweet daughters. Sarah and I have known each other since we were in grade 5. It was really nice to see her, I was so happy when she told me she was at her mom’s and that she and her girls could come for a visit. It’s really been a long time, too long actually! Her girls are 4 and 17 months old.  You know it’s been too long when I hadn’t even met her little one yet, nor had I seen Sarah when she was pregnant! Yep, too long! Sarah has, for as long as I can remember, been one of those very organized people. When we were kids, whenever she was over at my house, she’d usually end up cleaning my room. It was like she couldn’t help herself. We’d be “hanging out” in my room and she’d just randomly start picking things up and folding clothes, etc. Well, not much has changed and, trust me or just ask my dad, to a clean-freak, my house would or could potentially cause heart failure… So, we ended up going through all of my art/craft stuff. We got my art desk completely organized and looking great! We separated my “grownup” art supplies from the kids stuff, to avoid any “cross-contamination” lol (Sarah’s words!!) It looks so nice and inviting and so damn organized, I love it! She also found time to organize a very junky cupboard in my kitchen. My hubby will be so happy about that one. He just hates anytime he has to get things out of that cupboard. So we decided not to tell him, so he’d get a pleasant surprise when he has to get something from there. The only problem is that I’m completely wiped!! Like done-in and exhausted. So, this is about all I’ll be writing today. I’m too tired and for some reason I’m going to bed at midnight! I don’t know how it got so late so quickly…time moves strangely🤓 sometimes (I’ve been wanting to use the little strange/geeky emoji – lol!!)

Steep Learning Curve Forcing Me To Use My Brain (Which Feels Good!!)

The online course I’ve been taking to learn about building a website and turning it into an online business is not what I call easy. It’s a pretty steep learning curve. However, I am really enjoying it! I’ve been posting on here all year, mainly just for myself. I expected family and friends to keep an eye on my site, but that was about it. I knew I may attract some other people who find it in a search or whatever. I knew nothing about turning my blog-site into a full blown website. I had never even heard of the majority of the terms and/or acronyms:  SEO – Search Engine Optimization, Plug-ins, domains vs websites, buying your own domain, online affiliate marketing, web-hosting, Google ranking, home title, home description, keyword research, QSR – quoted search results…on and on the list goes! There are so many things to learn. It’s not just buying a domain and bam! you have your website. The above information (& I’m only at the early level of the training!) can change what you write about and how you write it. The actual language and wording can be altered slightly to include keywords found throuh keyword research and then I will slowly start to be ranked on Google; which is good!! The more authoritative content I add, the more traffic I will get.  Also, the higher my rank on Google, the more traffic I will get to my website. More traffic equals more people heading to my site(s) equals more revenue I can get from my site!! (That is just a basic explanation, there’s more to it, but you get the point…maybe!) 

And so, what’s my point??

My point is that I am busy getting my site ready. It is a lot of work. However, it feels super-nice to be using my brain again! It’s like flexing a muscle that has atrophied…it’s not something that can be healed overnight, but the more I use it the better it gets at doing its’ job! Am I enjoying myself? Yes. Is it easy and instantly perfect? Nope!! So, I will keep you posted. I could put the website name down, but there isn’t anything on it yet, except the name. So it’s kind-of pointless. I’d rather wait until there is actually somethings to see. So, for now, this is what you get!! All good??? Hope so, as it is on my end.  Night all!

A new year is upon us.

The time for change is now!

No need to fret or fuss,

Or ask the question, “How?”

It will lead the way!

No need to doubt, just start,

To follow your passion each day…

I am working hard on my website. It is a big project to take on. I’m not quite where I wanted to be before sharing it and my new self-commitment includes my website, so I’m not going to put it here quite yet. Until I do (hopefully very soon), I am continuing with writing a blog post everyday!!

🎊🎇🎉HAPPY NEW YEAR🎉🎇🎊

🎊🎇🎇🎉🎉HAPPY NEW YEAR🎉🎉🎇🎇🎊

My daughter had or rather, is having a New Years party.  We had fun playing rockband 4 (the newest one with all of the new instruments etc..). It’s so so loud though! When you’re down stairs playing you can tell it’s ridiculously loud, but everyone’s singing along and it’s a lot of fun. It was actually my neighbor’s 14 year old daughter & I who originally put it on. Then, because it is fun, more and more people came upstairs to play. Before we knew it, almost everyone was upstairs and it was midnight! Count down. Then I just visited with my neighbour, lucky lady gets to go to Mexico on Saturday!! Feeling a bit envious (I admit it). So by the time I got the younger ones settled (in our bed). My hubby is still partying with the kids-lol!! He’ll probably just crash on my daughter’s bed, since she’s in our room. She doesn’t really like being around a bunch of drinking kids (okay, they’re 18…but they’re still kids to me!), she gets very uncomfortable. On top of that, she hasn’t felt well all day!! So we’re upstairs where, I must admit, rockband is much less appealing and it suddenly seems much louder – lol!! Yep not quite the same appeal when you want to sleep! My daughter’s asleep (some how), but I am pretty sure my little man isn’t. So, I am going to be cutting this short tonight and get him to sleep – hopefully. I may have to ask them to dial it down a bit if he (or we) can’t sleep. 

It’s December 31st, That means, in writing this, I have fulfilled my self-challenge! I said I need to write one post each day (a “day” defined as any time before I go to bed each day. Even if it’s past midnight, as long as I wrote before I went to sleep!) beginning  January 1st, 2015 – December 31st 2015!!! And (insert pat on my back here!!) regardless of health and location I posted every day in 2015!!! I must say, I’m proud of myself. Yay me!!! And now…I go to bed and, in the morning, embark on My New Self-Challenge: 2016 edition…
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz……

Gratitude – It’s A Great Time Of Year To Be Greatful

Some times poems come easy

The words just flow from my lips

But other times it’s tougher

And my tong just ties and slips

Life too has ups and downs

It rarely stays nice and steady

There’s often unexpected turns

It’s hard to always be ready

When life is good and going smooth

Don’t forget to offer thanks

As gratitude is often overlooked 

And it’s important for when life tanks

When surrounded by your problems

And seemingly everything’s got you down

Being greatful for who and what you have

Reminds you that things can turn around

Gratitude is just so important 

It shows appreciation for what others do

It cheers friends and family and even you 

Saying, “I see all you do and I love you too…”

JKC

So…say THANK YOU!!! It’s never too late to just use our words to thank those who, perhaps should have been told sooner…  It’s a great time to be greatful.  Just look back over the past year at all you’ve done and all you have and the family and friends who support you; maybe thanks is in order!!

And THANK YOU everyone for all the support and encouragement over the past year. I’m so lucky and thankful for my family and friends. I am blessed!!

2015 In Review

First things first…my little man is growing up so fast. Already shaving!! Don’t believe me, take a look:

   
 

So, you see, he’s getting bigger and bigger by the second, well, at least that’s how it feels. Our good friends gave him the Avengers shaving kit for Christmas and he really likes it!

Today WordPress sent me an annual review of my blog. It’s pretty cool. Also, since it’s so damn late and I’m so tired, it’ll help me write a very short post, so that I can go to bed!! (Lol!! The following pictures are my post for today!!)

   

  
    

  
 
  So, there you have it folks!! A couple days early, but I’m too tired tonight, so this was fairly easy for me. Had a quiet day, but for some reason I’m insanely tired!! Night all!!

Woohoo!!!

 We had another quiet day today. I was actually pretty productive too! I spent quite a bit of time on my website today. Replied to all the new comments, watched 2 training videos and finished the tasks that accompany the videos. I wanted to “launch” my new site on New Years Day, but yikes that’s soon!! It’s not actually a big launch that has everyone on pins and needles or anything. It’s part of my new promise to myself for 2016, since in only a couple of days I will have reached my goal for 2015. I can hardly believe I did it, a post a day every single day of the year! Yay me!!! All kidding aside, I’m actually pretty proud of myself. When I decided to commit to writing daily last year I wasn’t sure, because of the awful face days, whether or not I would be able to do it. But, here I am, 3 days away from succeeding and, you know what, it feels really good. Again I say, “Yay me!!!” My challenge for next year is similar, maybe more difficult, it will involve both my blog and my website and I feel really good about it. A few people have asked me and/or told me that I should combine all of my posts from this past year and have them made into a book…the idea scares and excites me at the same time. I wouldn’t even know where to start…hmmm…if anyone has any good ideas about this, please let me know!! I have dreamed about writing books, but I have no idea how to go about that. Anyway, book or not, I’m super proud that I’ve followed through and, despite the pain, I’ve reached my goal. Woohoo!!!

I fought through the pain that my damn Trigeminal nerve likes to dish out all over the place, actually more like all over my face…

All That You Invest…

Do you grow as a person everyday?

Do you make damn-sure to laugh?

Do you believe in yourself and all you can do?

Or do others tend to speak on your behalf?

I’ve been there, down and dragging my feet,

Unsure whether I deserved more.

I know the feelings of unworthiness and shame,

Of questioning what I’m here for. 

Finding direction and a strong sense of self,

Is difficult, that’s for sure!

But if you keep getting back up and trying again,

You’ll discover, for yourself, what has allure.

You don’t have to be perfect, no-one is;

Just be yourself, it’s what you do best! 

With time and effort, success will come,

And it’ll be worth all that you invest…
