Unplugged and lovin' it!

My oh my, how time flies when you're having fun! I can't believe that I haven't posted anything on here since 2012. OK, actually, I'm not surprised. I am willing to admit that I am a bit of a "Go-Getter" when things are brand new but then, the shiny goes away and I am on to the next "I know this will be the project I will follow through with" kind of project. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. In recently realizing this (accepting it really), I have taken a step back to listen. And to really do that, I had to UNPLUG!!!

Yep, you guessed it! I got rid of the extremely long list of things on my phone that were causing me to tune out the world that was just on the other side of my little 6" screen! No more Facebook cause "ten minutes" always turned into an hour! No more little farm games cause my laundry needs to be tended to more then my crops. No more flappin, snappin, vinin, nothin!! Crazy I know! I really thought that it was going to be a hard transition for me but to be honest, it hasn't been and I am so super happy!

So, awhile back I was on Pinterest, (which I DID NOT delete BTW because that would just be CRAZY!) and I was looking for a command center to do in my laundry room so that I could attempt to get everything in order. Well, I found this at getSNAZZY.com and used it as my inspiration. Now I have this!!

Isn't it beautiful! I put it together in a day! As you can see, the big frame on top is still empty......must have been flappin or farmin. Anyway, I used this for all of 2 days and then it just became a big pretty wall, that didn't get used.

Now getting to the point of why I brought this up. Since unplugging, I have been using the command center everyday! My house is clean constantly, my laundry is so caught up that I had no daily load to do today, and I still have so much time left over that I can sit down, write to you fine people AND sew, bake and play with my chitlins!

It truly has been an eye opening change. I was going to call it an experiment but those end and this isn't going to. I am making all these things a habit so that it feels weird to do it any other way. I deserve it, Brian deserves it, and most of all, my chitlins deserve it!

With all that being said, I guess the short of it is that I AM BACK! Hold me to it! Don't let me stop! Accountability is a great motivator! My next post will be how to make Homemade Pepperoni Rolls that are "Out of Bounds!" Until then, Frugaly Yours!

Officially a blogger!!

Hello friends! YAY! I have to start by saying how happy I am to be writing my first ever blog post! I am so proud of myself. I have been looking at other peoples blogs and can't believe I have not thought to make one of my own. Well here I am. An official blogger. Feels good. 

OK, enough rambling. Did I mention I am new to this? I am sure you will go through the strides with me as I learn all the fun things you can do with a blog so bear with me! :)

I am creating this blog to post stories of my life of course, as well as all the fun things I hope to do and create in my "Living Frugal" adventures. I am a lover of Pinterest, who isn't, and find that I pin so much stuff in hopes that I will get around to doing it or using it someday in the future. This blog will give me reason to ensure that I try them. 

Here, I will share with you my attempts to be awesome! I am not an artistic person and though I have great vision in my mind, getting it out of there is another story and sometimes ends quite badly. Can't learn if you don't try though. 

Well, I think this is good for a first time post! Signing out for now but will return soon with something fun!
