Hi everyone!!!

I feel like we haven’t gotten to talk in forever. I’ve taken an unofficial, unplanned blogging break over the past weeks, well, kind of more like months, okay, actually, when I look back it seems like it’s been over a year. What in the world is going on?

Since I feel so behind in writing here (that’s fancy talk for blabbing all about me and my house and my big self) I thought, what’s the most annoying, self-absorbed, entertaining way to reconnect with you? A series! Yes, I shall do a series all about me! It’s my blog and I can ruin it however I see fit. So next week I’ll do a little series called Things You Might Not Know About Me. Mark your calendars, wake the grandparents, alert the media. And start thinking of something I don’t know about you, this works both ways. Also, I hate it when people announce what they are going to do. Just do it, don’t tell me what you are going to be doing, sheesh. Why do I insist on annoying myself?

Meanwhile, have you been keeping up with the Creating with the Stars contest? I’m the worst person to explain it because I just found out about it last week but, it’s like Dancing with the Stars only instead of being on TV it’s on a blog and instead of dancing it’s DIY home projects and instead of stars it’s home bloggers and instead of professional dancers teaching them the moves it’s more experienced home bloggers mentoring newish home bloggers. I think. I’m still figuring it out but no matter what it is, it’s pretty much amazing to watch these talented folks come up with a new idea every week. I’m waiting for one to faint. And I totally think the winner deserves a mirror ball. You can see this weeks projects and vote here. Here are the winners from round one.
