"THE PURPOSE OF THE BLOG"

Hey all you mom's out there! I'm starting this blog to not only help me, but maybe you mom's as well. I have recently become a stay at home mom for awhile (well until I find a new job)! It's only been a week, but it's been a week full of thoughts and wonderings. I recently cleaned a friends house that has moved and is trying to sale his home and it got me thinking about how much help I need in my own home... Cleaning is not my most favorite thing! You wouldn't know it that 95% of my jobs have had to do with some sort of cleaning. It's different when your getting paid to do it, though! Anyway, I was cleaning my bathrooms today and decided I would do baseboards, around the toliet, you know the fun stuff!

It got me thinking that maybe us moms could maybe help each other. Not just with our house work, but with raising our kids, our significant others, Weight loss, and pretty much anything that will help us get through each day, week and month!

I want to be able to put advice and tips of things that I know and I want you to put things that you know. If you have ?'s I want you to feel free to ask and hopefully if I don't have the answer someone else will.

I struggle with a lot of things, which I'm sure you do to. For some examples: I have very little patience with my out of control kids, I don't keep up on the deep cleaning in my house. My husband hates clutter, so sometimes I put it off so he will do it. (I'm lucky I have that) I have no self control when it comes to sugary foods. (Which is why I need to loose 80lbs, the Wii fit told me so) I hate doing laundry, which is why it takes me 3 days to fold and put them away, but then there's 6 more loads. (The never ending job) I stay in my pajamas or work out clothes all day when I have no where to go. I spend to much money on things I probably don't need. Okay, I'm sure I have more, but I'm getting a little depressed!

I hope everyone will participate and maybe we can keep a few sane moms out there, including me! I will try and give tips of the week and other useful advice. So stay tuned. If you want to be annonymous on some things then e-mail me your ?'s or comments and I will post them for you. mindituckett@yahoo.com I'm super excited for some help in my daily issues!!!
