Begin at the BEGINNING...

Begin at the beginning you can't start at the end, that would be cheating. I have started and unsuccessfully maintained blogs in the past but in reality none of them had a purpose like this one does to me.

I have a complicated simple life, truly blessed with two healthy children of my own and an intelligent beautiful step daughter. The position of stay at home mother/wife is most definitely the most challenging job I have ever held. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week ON CALL, non-stop SUPER rewarding.  The hugs, pictures, memories I get from having this chance are completely irreplaceable. I can't continue to describe how lucky I am because you would stop reading.

This year is a year full of opportunity... opportunities for redemption.

I am going to be blogging as frequently as possible to track and review my success and my failure as a mom, friend, and all around person this year on my journey of self affirmation. I am trying to regain my assertiveness I had once and feel like a person of worth not a person that feels worthless.

Most families now a days are in the red with stress accumulating and people worrying about bills and balances. I am going to be arranging a budget for my family and will update you on the program and success of it. I am also implementing a money saving initiative for my children based on things I have read online. I think it is important to begin teaching my children the importance of money and proper savings techniques.

I am also trying to make some more time for me (all of you who just guffawed this statement don't read on) I NEED me time, I can't watch children shows and clean all day everyday and still feel human. I am spending time making sure I am happy and sane because how else can I be a good mother and wife ?

Hoping for positive feedback but accepting the criticisms.

Until next time.
Mama T
