First Project

So actually my first creative project since my youngest was born, is a project I started almost 2yrs ago. When we first moved into this house there has been a hugh amount of stuff that we've done and still want to do to make it feel more like ours. The project is finishing up the kitchen cabinets. I've gotten the upper cabinets done the way I want them, now I finally get the chance to do the lowers. I've gotten the Hubs to take the kids and himslef out of my hair so I can get this accomplished and marked off the long term list of "stuff we'd like done" around the house. Here are the photo's.

The Old me, battling the New me

I've been a Stay at Home Mommy (and yes this does need to be an official title, it is a job no matter who thinks its 'easy') for the last 3 years, and for the next few I'm sure. Can't say it was the job I thought I'd signed up for when I came to go to college, but I'm adjusting.

Along the way I've felt the 'old' me fading into the background until I thought I'd lost her. Then Hubs and I bought our first home and the spark was ignited and she's back in full force. It also hit me..I don't have to choose, I can have them both, it's more about what I need to do to keep the balance going between my go-lucky old self and the responsible Wife/Mother I am today. My outlook on this whole way of live has been skewed. It's time to create a new image. Let the challenge begin!
