So I know I haven't been on here but honestly I got burned out on recipes and such for the blog it felt more of a burden than something fun to do.... I would get so upset if I had not done something for the blog... so Here is the end of the "living the DIY life" and the beginning of "simply live"...
I have recently reevaluated life and taken a step back to really take a look at what is going on in my life... I have once again got my priorities back in line... While it would be great to have a picture perfect clean home, create lavish meals and craft looking similar to that of hobby lobby art however, I have realized that happiness, messy home and all is so much more enjoyable. I have gotten back to my faith by devoting a little more time to God and thanking him more for all the wonderful things in my life... My wonderful daughter, amazing husband, awesome family and friends....I can't even start to think of that magazine home, cooking like chef anne, or crafting like martha until I have bettered myself. I need to make sure I am happy in order to enjoy life to its fullest... I need to live life a little more and enjoy everything God gives me. I need to set good examples for my beautiful daughter by getting myself healthy, I have a lot of extra pounds to lose and I hope to get fit in the next two years before she can really remember, I don't want her to have memories of me being lazy, unfit eating junk food.... I am going to start enjoying and living a more simplistic life. I will be doing a few things for myself to make myself more happy like writing I have always loved to write and do more photography. I want to start enjoying the city in which we live and try to have some kind of experience every day... Even if it is something small like walking into a new store or meeting a new person.
I think back to the happiest most loving people I have ever known, my grandparents. Papa was a preacher and mama was a housewife-they didn't have much in the bank but man they were rich with love and they would give you the clothes off their backs if you would have asked.
Honestly money just causes problems... just live simply....
So the new blog is Simply Live... a constant reminder to myself to live and enjoy life to its fullest.... you may get a random life update, something we have done, an occasional recipe or craft but this blog is going to be my story... my tell all if you will... Since it will be my life, raw, it will get personal and things will be real... most important I will be happy and celebrating the days God gives me...
Live Simply, Simply Live.....
