Where crafty mama blends with working girl in this sweet little smoothie of life

Happy Tuesday! So this is my blog, right? Somehow I got a bit caught up in the crazy crafty side of things and my smoothie started to get a little off balance. Crafty I am, but it's just one little part of what makes me...me. And really, who wants the 2D version of me? I'm sooooo much better in livin color (yep, I know I mixed my analogies) So I'm adding in some more of the wacky (oh yes, I said wacky) me to this transcript of my life. Okaaaay, now that I got that out of the way...
Over this past summer I've gained a little weight. I'm generally a flux 5-10 pounds kinda girl. And I'm up in the 9 3/4 extra pounds range. I hate going into the holidays already maxed out (in both weight and finances) and really, I'm just a little sick of my belly bulge. So this is my 'throwin it out there for the world to see' challenge. I'm setting a goal of losing 20 pounds by Christmas (um...2010, just in case I tried to cheat later - oh yeah, I'm like that). This is really a stretch goal for me and I'm hoping that making it oh-so-public will help me when the going gets rough... like tomorrow morning :) Wish me luck!

Feels Like Fall
Well hello there! After a bit of a late summer blogging hiatus, its time to get back to some Munchkin Theme Mondays! The leaves are changing and the weather is cooling down. That can only mean my favorite season is almost here :) And since Munchkin's birthday falls smack dab in the fall, I'm sure it's going to be a favorite time of year for him too. Here's our autumntivities for this week:
