What Color Girl Are You?

You Are A Gold Girl



You're dependable and hard working. You never miss a deadline - and you're never late.

You have a clear sense of right and wrong. You're very detail oriented.

You get frustrated when your friends are sloppy - or when they don't follow through.

You're on top of things, and you wish that everyone else was!



Heather and I are the same color! {{giggle}} I wish I was never late on a deadline. I used to be on top of everything - however this 3rd little guy has blasted most of my good habits. Now that he's 2 I've recommitted myself to getting back to basics.

On a personal note: I've either walked and/or walked on my treadmill every day this week. I have shin splints and my back is killing me. However, I totally committed to keeping myself moving. One thing I have discovered is that when I walk in the morning it zaps my energy for that day. Do you have that problem?

I think I may need to stick with evening walks/work outs and long soaks in the tub at night. That's more my rythm. ;)

♥ I'm Gold too! I find that working out in the morning is the best for me. Usually first off but I know if I don't drink enough water and if I slow down then I get a little sleepy too. However if I say I'm going to work out at night then usually I'll find a reason not too by that night! :)

Working out in the morning makes me eat like a pig all day. The harder I work out, the harder it is to satisfy my appetite. I don't know if it's because my metabolism's up or what. I'm like that ravenous beast in the Spaghettio commercial.

My third baby is 8 years old, and I still can't find my groove. I am also spent for the day when I exercise in the morning, but can't find time to do it if I wait. I therefore don't exercise very often! Keep it up! (Oh, I'm also like Chanda, I eat CONSTANTLY when I work out in the morning!)

So with you, Laurie. I have to work out in the evenings. I can push myself a little harder, drink lots of water and then roll myself into bed.

Laurie, I love your blogs! This is my first time checking out your personal blog but I love Tip Junkie and Executive Homemaker. I've gotten so many ideas for Enrichment, Home, Family etc. I also have 3 boys! And one of them happens to be named Drake also! Thanks for all you do! I hope all your hard work is worth it in the end.

Blogging 101 - What Not To Do

Since I just did a post to welcome a bunch of new bloggers, I thought I'd give our newbies some good tried and true: Blogging 101 -What NOT to do! Yes, this is unsolicited advice from yours truly, but I think it's about time someone addresses the issues. #1. Don't get green with envy , Blenvy it's coined, while reading other's blogs. According to CJane , "It usually comes from reading a blog that emphasizes my insecurities." Well said blogger guru. I couldn't agree with you more. Please remember that each post is just a moment of that person's day/week. Instead, just be happy that something amazing happened to your fellow blogger. Be inspired by them! If you really feel the need, use that insecurity to make a change in your own life and do something similar. #2. If people don't update their blog roll by adding your name under 'Friends & Family' don't get your feelings hurt . It's simply a nice gesture, forgotten. Seasoned b...

Craft Closet Make Over

I've finally done it. After 2 years of living in this house, I've finally finished organizing the last closet in my home. This is the guest room closet that doubles as my "craft" closet. You could barely consider it a walk-in closet, but with 2 new shelves my man built for me over the weekend, it's got just enough space for what I need. Closet Before Closet Before - complete chaos ! After - view from hall (I used a different camera because mine is still broken. It was so hard to get these pics the space is so small. I hope you can get the idea.) Small shelf with hanging space for guests clothes - just above the door that goes to the attic. I spray painted 2 of these tins pink and glued flowers onto the other 3. Top Shelf Middle, 2 new shelves that Jason made and I painted white. I added these "curtains" to cover the other white bins and to make the space less messy. I used 2 tension rods and they open up in the middle. I was inspired by this craft room ...

I can't believe it, as of Tuesday, I have been blogging for one year! On the outside not much has changed: I have 3 boys, live in the same house, my man has the same job, and I still go to Mavens, book club, and dinner club with the same fab friends. But in reality a lot has changed: * Davis has braces * Davis is now medicated * Dylan has been diagnosed with ADHD and is now medicated {{a hit to my ego}} * Finished Mommy & Me gymnastics with Drake * Drake is talking a little * Drake is in a big boy bed - although still not sleeping through the night * Jason's going to school to get his MBA * Executive Homemaker which took over a year to design and 5 years as a concept is 15 months old and has 2,333 members and growing at a rate of 300+ new members every month. * Executive Homemaker's online store has grown from three to 26 Mom- prenuers ! * Tip Junkie is 11 months old * My house is a little prettier and more organized * My Dad is divorced * My brother Scott came home...
