Life Interrupted

As I sit here, almost at the end of my Monday, I am faced with a barrage of tasks that I have yet to complete. I think I lost my "Mommy Crown" last week and have been struggling to get it back ever since. I can hardly believe that i have not written a single blog post in over a week. All I can say is WOW!! Rummaging through my brain for reasons, I am left with none except that sometimes "routine life" gets interrupted. There were no major events this past week aside from a couple of routine physicals and my hubby starting a new job. (That deserves a little fanfare, so WOOHOO to my honey!!) My routine just sidetracked a little, A LOT!!

Anyway, my attempt at a blog hop was a total fail last Monday, so I'm going to call it quits, for now, and try again in a month or so when I get back on track. That aside, I have decided to set a new blogging goal for myself. The goal is to post at least once a day, even if it's frivolous. (Frivolity makes me smile) If you've been reading for a while, you'd know that this is sort of a repeat goal. I started this Thirty Questions--Thirty Days challenge on 8/27--Some 45 days ago...Yep...total FAIL!!! I am bound and determined to complete it!!! (Someday..LOL)

I think my real issue right now is finding the right time to get my blog posts up. Most times, the posts are already written, it's just a bit like pulling teeth to get them posted. I have a dream...that one day my 3 little BIG children will learn that Mommy must have her free time. If she doesn't, she becomes this mean, grouchy, bear of a person, that could possibly maul you. Just kidding...I think....Someone out there is going to think I'm nuts when I say this, but they were so much easier when they were younger. SERIOUSLY!! I am the proud and complete LOONY mother of two teens and a tween. YAYY...NOT!!!! Since school started, I don't know whether I'm coming or going. In my mind, it is me that is in school and they are the adults. I wish I could blink and make it so....(note to self--locate a Genie Lamp--call Major Nelson)

Well folks...that's it for now..I hope to post again before the night is through...Wish me luck---I think I'm gonna need it!!!

Match My Mood Monday Blog Hop

Match My Mood Monday is a blog hop of sorts that incorporates the culmination of the latest spillage from my brain. What is this Match My Mood Monday, you ask? Have you ever found a song that just explains your mood or feelings as if it were created especially for you or about you? Well on Match My Mood Monday, I am asking you, my readers and future readers (hint-hint) to post a video, a link to a video, a song title, song lyrics, or even make up some of your own that truly expresses how you feel on this day. I am truly excited and interested in the songs that fuel your soul. I have decided to broaden my musical horizon a bit and hopefully you'll decide to link up, so that I may get a glimpse of the many other types of music out there in a unique and fun way. ( I hope it's fun for you too!!☺)

Happenstance Creations--A Fantastic Find!!

Thanks to a fabulous Blogmania win (Blogmania@BreeBree's), I was introduced to one of the best. Happenstance Creations is a fantastic Etsy shop specializing in high quality, unique stationery. My prize was a $10 GC to purchase my choice of stationery. I chose the Blue Butterflies Pastel and Ink Birthday Greeting Note Card with Coordinating Seal and the Golden Pear Fruit Illustration Mini Note Card with Glassine Envelope. My paper goodies boasted a simple, yet elegant design that suits my purposes completely. In addition to the birthday card, Susan, proprietor of Happenstance Creations, included a matching mini and coordinating note card seals that just makes it absolutely perfect and complete for my gift giving purposes. The mini will be attached to a gift bag and the seal will will be used to close the card. I actually found the perfect coordinating gift bag at a local store, so I am all set for my daughter's birthday. The Golden Pear cards will be attached to gift baskets for Christmas. It's amazing that I won this GC because I purchased my baskets months ago and they are golden in color with small fruit accents. How perfect is that??!! If you are looking for specialty paper products, Happenstance Creations is somewhere you want to be!! Outstanding quality, superb design, and super fast shipping!! Do yourself a favor, check out Happenstance Creations!! It is truly a fantastic find!!!

The pictures do no do these creations justice. They are really fantastic!!
Thanks Susan!! Thanks Bree!!

As you can see, Vision Supreme has gone through a few changes today. I was prompted to do so by an email from Review Retreat. Breast cancer has touched my life and the lives of countless others across the globe. Going Pink For October is my small tribute to honor those that have dealt with the ugliness that is breast cancer. We pray, work hard for a cure and continue to support each other the best way we know how. If you or someone you know has been touched by this disease, I encourage you to go pink for October and link up with others that have done the same. It is my Vision Supreme to see a cure in my lifetime, how about you?? Be sure to check out the website http://pinkforoctober.org/ so you can link up with your fellow bloggers that have also gone Pink!! Also check out the site Feel Your Boobies--It has saved lives!!

GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN

Just A Rant About Some Stuff

Ambition is not a lifestyle, it should be an aspiration. However, this new generation of children don't seem to see it that way. We as parents do the best we can by them. We provide, counsel, nurture, support, defend and do all the things that good parents are made of. Yet, there is something that seems to be lurking beneath the surface. Something that threatens our dream for their futures. Now don't get me wrong, my children are absolutely wonderful in my eyes and the eyes of those around them. I am speaking about their generation in general. I listen to the daily gripes and concerns that these youth deal with and my mind is completely blown. I won't go into any details because it is completely beside the point. I will pray for them. They are our future and right now, it just desn't seem that bright. Maybe I just don't remember being that age (15-21). In my head, I like to think I was this model young lady at that time, but I know that is pretty far from the truth. I wonder if my mother had these same thoughts....hmmm..thoughts to ponder→

Thirty Questions--Thirty Days: Day 17 Someone You Would Want To Switch Lives With For One Day & Why

This is a hard one. I have never really thought about switching lives with anyone, ever. Sure, I have moments where I wish my life was better, but I wouldn't want to be anyone else but me. There are aspects of certain people's lives that I would love to have, such as Oprah's fame and fortune, Alicia Keys or John Legend's musical talents, or perhaps Ciara's dancing abilities (That girl can move!!!). With that said, I would not wish to trade lives with any one of them. Who really knows what happens day to day in other people's lives? I mean, I am a blogger and I frequent my social networks, but how many of you really know what I do everyday? My husband doesn't even know everything that I do daily. Walking in another person's shoes for a day would hardly give me even a glimpse of their lives. When I think of switching lives with someone, I think of those crazy movies where you touch something strange or say some random phrase, and you switch bodies with your mother, father, or even some random gross guy. Typically there is some underlying reason why these people should switch places. I have no desire nor reason to walk in anyone's shoes but my own. This is my life and I'll keep it, good, bad, or indifferent. I love being me, who knows, there just might be someone out there who wants to be me. Imagine that, two of me!! My family would go NUTZ!!!!! LOL!!!☺
