Welcome to My Corner of the World



I hope you find humor, inspiration and something worthwhile on this blog. I plan to be as candid as possible. Life is hard. I know, I've overcome a lot (and still have a way to go).
It doesn't help others if the rough things are glossed over.

I will no doubt fill this blog with stories of my achievements as a mom as well as my personal struggles.

I have an incredible husband whom I call "my sanity." I have two great kids with strong personalities. I struggle with anxiety and depression and I have had a colorful childhood.

I also have an addiction to Gilmore Girls, A&W Cream Soda, and Starbucks peppermint mocha.
I have recently added biking to my list of hobbies and also love to read, knit, and play tennis.

Welcome to my little corner of the world!

Hello Monday!

  So I entered a cool challenge for bloggers here.  It's called Boost Your Blog in 100 Days, and I thought it'd be a fantastic way for me to do a bit of networking among bloggers--and it has.
  It has been neat to read other blogs, get ideas for my own, and see different points of view.

  I found one idea that I liked a lot, so I thought I'd snag it and incorporate it into Living One Day at a Time.  The idea: a blog post titled "Hello Monday!" (when I first saw the title, I thought perhaps it was a satire about miserable Mondays.  But it wasn't, and I was ok with that!) that highlights what the blogger is looking forward to in the up-coming week.  I found this all right here, thanks Lisa!

  So today will be my first "Hello Monday!!" post.

  Today I am looking forward to:

  •  Spending one more week with my kiddos before the babysitting comes on again full swing.
  • Being able to keep some appointments that I would normally have to reschedule because of babysitting kiddos.
  • Taking care of other not-so-fun-but-necessary jobs.
  • Taking A to her counseling appointment.
  • Enjoying a date night with The Hubby!
  Haha, apparently there's a theme: keeping appointments! 

  So what are YOU looking forward to this week?

  1. I'm loving the BYB challenge too! Lets see, this week I am mostly looking forward to moving on with my next PT and getting back to running again:)
    Hope you got to do everything you are looking forward too on your list, and then some:)
