A start to hopefully a big change...

I got this idea from Nony of  "A Slob Comes Clean". I quickly realized how much her and I have in common and so here I am trying to give her idea a go for myself. Do I expect to get traffic? Nope... Do I expect to get anything out of this for anyone else? Nope.... The whole point of this is for me to keep myself accountable, I've never been a journal kinda girl and sense I started my family blog and liked it, I figure this is a good way to document my progress! If you come here and find this grats... hope it helps, if it doesn't I'm sorry.

  1. it took me a long time to think like that. when i first started my blog all i cared about was getting followers and subscribers and reviews and giveaways. i forgot the meaning of my blogs. id rather have a small following who enjoy reading and commenting my blogs instead of trying to make it a known blog.

  2. I wish this was FB and I could just "like" that comment of yours! I honestly wasn't expecting to have people look at my blog... then I got some very minor views, and I didn't hate it... Then some support from some "Flyers" out there from the Flylady facebook group... Then MPM! I figure the more real I am the better.. so what if people see that I truly am a slob and an unconventional mom?! I am not doing anything wrong by either! One of my friends asked me if I was afraid of this getting in the wrong hands.. I asked them why should I be... this alone shows my attempt to change! ( though the last few days have been steps backwards :( but I'll get there eventually!)

  3. accountability is a big word. And it is incredibly important to be accountable as a mother and pet owner. Our kids will learn from us and they will do as we do- and create a world of chaos or responsibility.

    I think sometimes part of being accountable is also being able to be honest about your part in something. Step back, let emotion subside and look again.

    I'm happy to see you have chosen to do this for yourself, your family, (and so their future families, our world) You treated me badly in the past-when you were totally out of line but I suspect this was because of something deeper within you. I am happy to see you taking responsibility for that

  5. Well without knowing whom you are, I have no clue of what I did to wrong you and I do not blindly apologize, there have been several people in the past whom have wronged me and that I will not apologize to, most though, I don't normally harm. Though I am curious that if I wronged you, how you are checking on me... either you know my fb account or you looked me up on google :)

  6. Oh and my girls are wonderful.. they have always tried to clean up things sense they were tiny... even if I wasn't.. now that my house is cleaner, if it starts to get messy again my eldest walks up to me and puts her hands on her hips "mommy.. the house is a mess... we need to clean." it truly is a priceless thing! That and we are looking at adopting a dog (he is here on trial at the moment) and he is forcing me to keep the house really clean.. he is huge... but only 7 months old... so he wants to eat everything.. apparently even rocks so my husband has had to stop him from eating outside! He is also turning into a good boy and we are seriously thinking of keeping him, he is going potty outside and is learning the house and rules rather well, just a matter of trying to get him to stop barking!
