Wow its almost 1 yr since my last post ! Who would tell that I really do love to blog ? In fact one of my favorite random things to do is to look at those cool blogging magazines and wish I was one of them :-). I know my life is exciting enough! Since last post I have been to NY (upstate) to see relatives with husband (we put in some water gardens 3 in fact) and had a nice vacation time. Also have led Midwife mission trips to the Dominican Republic and Africa . You would think those each deserve a entry . But my problem has been OVERLOAD BUSY ! So my new solution is to get even more organised ! Just got encouraged by a client (who I delivered and am now HER midwife )anyways..at her Prenatal about a book I read many yrs ago.Its called sidetracked home executives .It has you organize your daily/weekly tasks into 3x5 cards and do them daily, then file for next week.So far (day 2 ) its working.I have done vitamins,green drinks,protein shakes,Bible reading, exercise along with random office tasks I have been putting off.Plus I included some fun things like sewing,and blogging daily too.(Thats why I am here now). I do juggle alot ..In fact I am watching my 3 grand kids today and waiting on a client in early labor today .But I thin k to get done all I need to do I need to stay ORGANISED ! Its so much more fun working/crafting in a clean space too.Paperwork is what kills me but if its filed,tossed etc quicker there is less around.Picture is of my sister when she came for visit and we cut up wool sweaters.She made these 2 pillows for my grand kids.These are the fun things in life I want to make more time for. Hope to post more to share my organised life :-) ..Hope it lasts :-)Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11651973551626872853noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1049824830096515578.post-84056250675755156792011-03-02T09:06:00.008-05:002011-03-02T09:35:25.890-05:00Babies grow up<div><meta charset="utf-8"><div style="text-align: center; ">

I like gardening for so many reasons..Good for kids to learn, good to be outside and moving around, can get cheep organic produce, can help if there is a food shortage, gets you in touch with the outdoors, is pretty (esp if you add some flowers to it - I really like the edible ones) . My goal is to get a greenhouse set up this winter to make my own plants from seeds and to have a fun hang out place next to our new outside bread/pizza over thats 1/2 done.

Had a nice clean up am. Stuff is all organised thats here, worked on sea glass jewelry, used plarn (plastic bags cut into strips and crochet into stuff). Can you tell I am running out of craft supplies? I will teach how to use it tomorrow at craft center. Nice to recycle but prefer more earthy yarn to crochet instead of plastic !. Might use my sample as a pot scrubber. Walked on beach and met with God (with help from my favorate worship bands and I pod). Then made yummy pasta with fresh basil..Got to love that plant !. Dr Quinn and Little house on the prairie helped to fill in gaps......Oh I also practiced my hoop dancing (hula hoop- Chris made out of pipe for me) Dont really have the dancing down but I can keep it up in the air :-)<img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj91GKIlu3FEc1uQsHRA6gDP9KyJyqo9Jr4sjaxlAvTCndEN6xMVvKBA7qWMiMEheRk076yjOnjR1mJVA0MvLVhkXeAr_6kzKVb42CBBOoLtrBni5X3HUCuxK7yyDmK4qIA5uS6yhG38uE/s320/IMG_4921.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391801915898743826" />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11651973551626872853noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1049824830096515578.post-91238130378462166512009-09-29T10:09:00.004-04:002009-09-29T10:24:18.073-04:00Caribbean sea<div style="text-align: left;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDkM8Yghn145_uBv7K79GPC3UJqG_orS7_bYav0D6g4o6HwHDudbKwxbnaksbeNo5s86ig6_Wn3gw43xrIMUDcpSbDZsHvL__MEsmq8LkS0A31k5bx32yHlLHYRHx5PxFVb6-IbFC1PKs/s1600-h/IMG_4874.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDkM8Yghn145_uBv7K79GPC3UJqG_orS7_bYav0D6g4o6HwHDudbKwxbnaksbeNo5s86ig6_Wn3gw43xrIMUDcpSbDZsHvL__MEsmq8LkS0A31k5bx32yHlLHYRHx5PxFVb6-IbFC1PKs/s320/IMG_4874.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5386892190683227426" /></a> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><b>Looks like I am holding the ocean up in<span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: normal; font-family:Georgia, serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: bold; font-family:arial, serif;"> this self por<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-weight: normal; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, serif; font-weight: bold; ">trait.

Saw Indian Marks on the wall inside. Had to crawl some. Shouldn't have worn a skirt but at least I had my Keen hiking shoes on ! You can really see how folks could have lived in caves. They are right on the ocean and whole hill was made of coral! Don't ask me how that happens ??? Anyways saw many hermit crabs of all sizes and made sure not to step on any. Then off to To Trash Bay which I names recycle bay.(the side of island that trash /fish nests etc land on coral rocks on shore ). Found cool driftwood boards,dried crab shells,fishnet, shells,corral etc which I later made into cool name plaques when glued all together. Fun gifts to bring home. Then climbed hill to ruins of THE Big house from the 1700 .( Owner of the slaves that lived here.) Like others in the past... found pottery/glass pieces. Someone here had previous pieces carbon dated and sure enough they are from early 1700 ! Glued some on plaques I made. Will teach the recycle crafts project to ladies in village next week.</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11651973551626872853noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1049824830096515578.post-64082828654766288272009-09-25T15:46:00.003-04:002009-09-25T15:54:39.509-04:00..My 1st blog post !<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuLZJXGHMakpvEyB40EerQWsrQ4Kuj-_UT49Bbtl4_pwjaPqEyseiPdfIXLYaqN1aG10OjeoLbGNQpb2fSTvuBYw6GEK5LyNsYM1yp-sDmq_dzlrsNFHamPdQY0esUuNBZSa4Xl8LlU2w/s1600-h/IMG_0535.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuLZJXGHMakpvEyB40EerQWsrQ4Kuj-_UT49Bbtl4_pwjaPqEyseiPdfIXLYaqN1aG10OjeoLbGNQpb2fSTvuBYw6GEK5LyNsYM1yp-sDmq_dzlrsNFHamPdQY0esUuNBZSa4Xl8LlU2w/s320/IMG_0535.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5385495767871791202" /></a><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 0, 153);">This is all new to me but a passion I have had for awhile. One of those goals in life that gets pushed aside by other things that scream louder. Now that we are in Barbuda for a season part time ..I have time to do this. its kind of nice NOT having a cell phone and NOT being on call after 24 yrs ! Heck we dont even have mail here ! But we do have ocean on 1 side and lagoon on the other. Will post a picture if I can figure out how :-).. I am also finding time to get to know my new Mac laptop (and my husband) better..Well off to sea kyack........</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11651973551626872853noreply@blogger.com2
