Maybe I can find a before picture of my old kitchen cabinets. Then all I have to do is figure out how put in a link!! :-) I'm a little on the blond side!!

Just kidding :-)<BR/>You probably hear a lot from parenting sources that "mommy time" is important, I try to give myself a few moments here and there throughout the day to grab a computer moment or read the next paragraph in a book...whatever. I use the "engage,walk away and return" technique a lot. I get the kids involved in something, school work/project, puzzle, coloring...etc. I start out with them doing whatever it is with them then as they get involved I say "I'll be back in 10 mins. stay here and play." Then I get 10 mins for me to do laundry, dishes, clean the bathroom, or mommy time. Then I go back and be with the kids again, sometime the activity will last long enough for me to get two 10 min. moments. Nothing is stress free around here but my stress levels improved greatly when I made a daily schedule and purposed to stick to it as much as possible. It doesn't rule me, but it helps to guide the day and keep things rollings instead. It may take me several "moments" to finish a post or a book, or even the laundry but it helps me to know it's in progress. Time is a crazy thing, if you don't harness it and make it work for you it just slips away!! So, I'm not sure you would want my cloth, it has crazy patterns all over it! :-P <BR/>I'm just rambling on....... :-)<BR/><BR/>Glad you liked our photos, trying to get everyone to look at the camera can be sooooo hard sometimes! :-) I loved the pictures you posted a couple days ago, fall can be sooo pretty and peaceful especially in the morning fog!!<BR/>Thanks for your comment!! :-D<BR/><BR/><BR/>Hi Evenspor! Yes!! I think I better go find some "mommy" tools! Nothing pink ya know, just "mine". That way I can stay out of trouble!.... Yeah right! :-D9ndhouse- Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03354836851346081701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9004437564551057840.post-10001122803774065632008-11-06T10:02:00.000-06:002008-11-06T10:02:00.000-06:00Hooray for new (to you) furnishings!

Woe be to the woman who breaks or loses the special hammer!Evensporhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17005685575858296425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9004437564551057840.post-27069483821074186792008-11-06T07:48:00.000-06:002008-11-06T07:48:00.000-06:00I continue to be amazed that you have time to keep...I continue to be amazed that you have time to keep a blog. Your family photos just blow me away. Is the cloth that you are cut from for sale or must it be inherited.
