Never say Never...

I know I never said I was going to have a blog but as we all know we should never say never. Its always seems to come back and bite you. So I originally started to create a blog in iWeb because I thought that it would be the easiest way but it did not offer me enough flexibility so here I am at blogger. So far so good even though I have been working on this for hours. The thing that has be most stumped is adding this picture thing. Can't seem to figure out how to get it to the place I want it. I've been googling like crazy but can't seem to find the right answer. So if anyone can shed some light on this for me it would be greatly appreciated. In the meantime I added the pic first and then started my text above it. There has to be an easier way. Right.

So I am in the process of trying to simplify my life. I am getting really tired and bored of rambling around in this big house in NJ while my husband works in Conn. so I have decided to sell everything, except the kids (that might come later) and move up to our apartment in Conn. Managing all these households is getting to hard and costly and I just want to return to simple. You know what I mean. So wish me luck and say a prayer that my house will sell quickly so I can move on. I am one of these people that likes instant gratification once I make a decision so I get a little antsy.

So this is really where I would want to be and what I am working towards...

First the will-never-blog turns into this wonderful little home on the net, and then eventually the house in NJ will metamorphose into a simpler life in Conn... what an exciting adventure! It'll all work out great! I'm behind ya all the way! (((hugs)))
