Hi ho hi ho is back to work we go....

Once again I need my hand slapped for being a inconsistent blogger! Ugh. I have been working again though, and so my attempt to manage all aspects of my life falls short....

This is not the exact table and chairs I have been working on, but similar in design, with the monogram in the middle. Seeing as I have two boys, this is totally my girl outlet!! (no worries, my boys certainly have some hand painted, monogrammed items, just not pink and green!)

It has been quite an adjustment having them back in school. We had a summer filled with lots of togetherness, which was great, but Momma was ready to have her house back! And then they left... and I had no idea what to do! So it was perfect timing when an order came in. and it is actually fun to be working again. but, it is a bit scary too, because when I am painting, I get SO absorbed in what I'm doing, I lose track of my environment, and then we have pile ups of laundry, no plans for dinner, and a not so happy hubby. Maybe I need an administrative assistant. or live in help. Since neither one of these are realistic options, I proceed with caution.

John is traveling so it is inevitable that I have a child home sick. yep. J has been home for the past two days with asthma issues (we are having to "neb" him every four hours, and he is still wheezy.) But believe it or not, I have no dirty dishes in the sink! And I get to go out to cooking class tonight. Yippee! I will post the menu tomorrow, but think mushroom, squash, and scallops. Mmmmmmm.

Many thanks to those who checked in! I will try to be a more consistent blogger...Do you think there is a support group for bloggers who can't stay on top of it all??
