Sometimes people ask me what I do for *me*. You're lookin' at it. I love blogging. I love talking about my kids. What mom doesn't? And I love raising awareness for adoption and for Down Syndrome. (And in a lot of cases, both.) These are the things I'm passionate about.
I tell my husband all the time what at odd creature I am (like he didn't already know that) because most people are either organized neat freaks OR artsy and kinda everywhere. Ya know what I mean? Well somehow I ended up being both of those things warring within the same person. I love to decorate and create. But I've also got a little touch of OCD. And being organized actually makes me feel healthier (figure that one out). I think that's why I love weddings and showers so much... creativity and planning. Decorative and orderly.
Anyway blogging fulfills each of those for me. Not only do I get to talk as much as I want about whatever I want but I get to create and design. :) I can organize my posts and sidebar gadgets. I love it. It makes me REALLY happy. HTML is so much fun. Symbols and letters all have to be in just the right place and perfectly lined up. And when you're done? Viola! Something beautiful. It doesn't get any better than that! :)
AND I can do this at my leisure. Its not something I have to do, its something I get to do. For Amy time.
I hope you enjoy reading as much as I enjoy sharing.
