Where has the time gone!

Oiy! It's been a long time since I've blogged! We are halfway through the year already and so much has happened. I can't seem to find a consistant time/place to write, it seems to happen in spurts.

I watched Julie and Julia for the first time a couple months ago and it made me want to really try to blog on a regular basis again. While watching the movie I really wondered how the people who were commenting on her blog found it...? The movie also inspired me to try some new recipes and learn more about Julia Child. I'd love to get my hands on a copy of her "Mastering the Art of French Cooking". While I have no desire to cook my way through that many recipes in a years' time, there were so many wonderful looking foods I'd love to try.

Speaking of food though, we are on a mission to eat healthier and loose some weight in the process. I've started going back to the gym as time permits and eating healthier, and my efforts of the first week have totaled 3 lbs gone :)

We planted a garden (corn, peas, lettuce, onions, carrots and tomatoes), and it was doing great, but we went out of town for several days and most of the garden had wilted or died. I'm doing everything I know how to bring it back to life. It also seems that the weeds grow faster than I can pull them. Our dog finally decided to stop digging holes to get into our neighbors backyard. We have a few other house projects going on as well - we are still trying to decide what our "vision" is for the front garden area, how to clean and then keep clean the shower door, and building shelving in the closets of the guest room and office.

I have so much to write about because I haven't had a chance in so long, I could go on and on but this is probably boring most of you. So I want to let you know that I will try my best to write on a somewhat regular basis. I plan to scale way back on the deal posts since those are what take the majority of my time (and they seem to be a dime a dozen these days).
