December 1, 2011. I decided that my new year does not have to start on January 1. I am choosing today. A principal and friend once told me that I am not “just” anything. She was right…and wrong. I am just many things. At the time, I was using “just” to explain why I could not do something. Now, I am using the same word to justify why I can do anything. I am just like every woman in the world. I want the best for my family and I want to do it all. This year I plan do make many changes in my life as I allow myself the freedom to make mistakes along the way. I am not just anything…I am just everything.

Join me on my journey of discovery as I get out of debt, get organized, and make life better for my family. You never know what you will find here–the latest recipe I tried, a book review, photos of my projects, or possibly random thoughts of a crazy woman trying to get by as just a modern mom.
