Crazy Mama

Today is one of those days.  I feel just a tad bit loopy.

I have read articles on a boat load of websites and in magazines about organization, motherhood, writing, creativity, cooking, etc. and so forth. 

Oprah, Martha, Rachel Ray, Parenting, Family Circle, Woman's Day...

My house is still a sty. I am still obscenely unorganized.  Oh yeah,  I still have writer's block...which has been my constant companion since 2003, when I graduated from college with a degree in English Literature and finally determined that I LOVED writing. 

Since that revelation, all the creative muses have taken a hike.  I do have faith that I'll get it back again, once I set aside some time to focus.

For now, it is all about my son. He is thriving...he's happy and healthy, "talks" up a storm and LOVES his Baby Einstein mat.

Now that I think about it, taking care of him is really all I need right now.

Hello, my name is Julie.  I'm a disorganized, loopy, crazy mama.

Pleased to meet you.

xoxo

Hahaha, your house is a sty... I was just saying today: I am an addict and books are my crack. Reading vs. dishes... hm... tough decision! I need a support group! Of course Sus tells me she supports my decision to read a good book in order to let my house go to pot. Not exactly what I meant, but I took it to heart & finished Fight Club. So there. And I fully support YOUR endeavor to spend time with your baby in order to let your house go to pot. :)
