Ideas

After work one evening Kyle casually suggested that I should perhaps write more about "things." ( I think he meant "ideas"---)

Translation: "Honey, the Family Blog is borderline lame. Surely you
can share something beyond chocolate, birthdays and Oreos....can't you?"

I admit, my writing has been faulty. My posts are a far cry from hip, fresh, or interesting. It's the same old, same old. Girl gets stressed. Girl eats chocolates. Kids do something crazy. Mom eats chocolate.

So I've been thinking reeeeeeeeeeeeally hard. Okay, not really hard. A little hard. I've given his mention a little thought and have to chuckle to myself because I was thinking the same thing. Really, I swear I was. If I hadn't been I probably would have taken offense to his gentle suggestion and gone on blogging strike or something. The reality is, my posts are not even serving the selfish purpose of documenting our family happenings or ideas of great importance-----well there are some, with a few exceptions I suppose.

So beyond my affinity for sweets, what do I think about? What is fascinating enough to me that would make me want to share with the world and not my journal: (PS--shout out here for LDSJournal.com It's a fantastic way to record your thoughts. )

Ideas for the day:
- I really want a bigger house
- I haven't gotten my sister-in-laws present mailed (okay, or picked out yet)
- I love the days when my kids are both asleep by 7:05pm
- I really should cook more
- Uhhhh..... I really just want to go clean now that the kids are asleep. More later when I'm not so preoccupied with what I should be doing with this quiet time....
