An Intro of sorts

Welcome to my little spot in the blog world. I am working at becoming a better wife, cook, organizer, crafter and overall person. I have so many goals and projects rattling around in my head that I thought I should put them down somewhere. So in no particular order things I want to achieve:

I want to cook more meals that my husband will actually like and want to eat again. He is the primary cook in our household. I am more of a baker.

I want to get our house organized and make it look more like a home and not a thrift store.

I want to work at losing weight so I can be healthier so we can start our family. This is slow going but frankly I need to step it up because I am not getting any younger. Baby clock is ticking.

I want to learn how to balance family, friends, work, life, fun, and responsibilities. I work shift work and am currently on midnight shift. I try to keep all the balls in the air but I know I am dropping them here and there. There has to be away to do it all..... right? So there you have just a few of my goals. Let's see how well I do at them!

A little about me. I am a police communications specialist (fancy title for police/fire/ems/911 dispatcher as well as records clerk) It's a stressful job but I do love it. I don't really care for the hours or the times I miss with my family and friends but I do get to work with a great group officers who have become my second family. I married my husband on Dec. 1, 2007 which was the best day of my life. I now know what it means to feel complete. I was raised with two older brothers so I have learned to be tough and to like sports. My husband likes this about me. My favorite thing to do is hang out with my and family and friends at a TCU (Texas Christian University) football game. Talk about relaxing and having a great time! I am a Horned Frog through and through. Go Frogs. I have a twisted sense of humor which I blame on my job and my family. My husband and I bought our house in Dec. of 2005. We have named our house the LazyMr. Our friends and family know it as such and when they are wanting to spend the night, they even call to reserve a room at the LazyMr. It's fun:) We have a lot of work to do on our house, paint, carpet, floors, cabinets, etc. It's a work in progress and I see it being so for a long time. I will share our progress as we go along.

Well I guess that's about it for the first post. Did I mention that I ramble? If I didn't I bet you figured it out didn't you! Anyway, Guess I will wrap it up! Hope you visit often and I look forward to getting to know my other crafty peeps!
