Inspired...

What? It's Thursday ALREADY? My days are all running together. I have made fun of my seventy something dad (who has been retired for several years) when he says stuff like that, and since I have been off work I find myself losing track of the days. Either I have had too much time off or I am reaching retirement age faster than I thought. (No offense mom or dad)

One of the inspirations to start a BLOG of my own was reading the book Julie and Julia. And I have to say if you can get through the massive amount of using the F word and the gross descriptions of cooking cow bone marrow and other fresh, french dishes, it's actually a pretty good book ... but I love the fact that she sat down and wrote out her thoughts on every recipe and how she was feeling and how it took a toll on her personal life. And that is what a blog is all about!
The only difference is I am not working on a year long project. Yet.
I have yet to see the movie, but I like to read the books before the movie anyhow. But then the movies don't add up to what my vivid imagination conjures up. Okay enough of that.

We have....wait, wait, I have been wanting to do some home improvements since I first moved in this house in 1991. I started a list a couple years back and have managed to cross off 5 things out of the thirty things I have dreamt of doing. Since getting dish last year (yes, we waited until the digital turn over before getting dish) I have watched hours and hours of HGTV and it just makes me want to finish my list and start a new one...So perhaps that will be what my year long project and blog turns out to be ... with a few random thoughts I am sure ... cause when I can finally walk on two feet again I am gonna be getting busy on that list. The biggest challenge will be getting my husband on board. We did actually take on a huge project last year - painting our front porch and window sills...we will be finishing the back porch as soon as it is warm and dry.

And believe it or not HGTV is what inspired my husband to paint ... So my evil plot is working.. heheheheHAHAHAHA (that's my evil laugh!)
