Wow! New post! Where did the time go??

I have all but abandoned my own blog for the blog of my little one. Well, what can I say, he takes up almost all of my time.
We just moved to San Fran and I'm trying to get unpacked, organized and get our house into order. Trying to have fun with decorating--My favorite room of the house, has to be our bedroom, hands down! I love the faux gas fireplace, the bay windows that look onto the semi-busy city street. I love the high ceilings,that is is really a large room and I even love the big doors that we use as our bed headrest.

My "office" space is going to be in here and I am excited to get a nice space to work in set up.

I made a New Year's resolution. Okay, I made more than one. But this one will hopefully get me organized enough to follow through with the others. I resolve to carve out a niche in my room to house a fully functioning, super hip, cheerful home office.

Comic-con and Derek Yaniger


Of course, leave it to me to find low brow tiki art at a nerd fest!
Love Derek Yaniger prints--I got a few small inexpensive ones for my office area.
Comic-con was actually really fun--especially fun to people watch!

How to make a Bamboo Tiki Picture Frame

(Stolen from RoadsideResort.com)

My next project!
Bamboo Tiki Picture Frame

The great part about this, is I have an amazing picture of my grandpa offill from WW11-somewhere in the south pacific right after being patched up after being shot!

This will be the perfect frame for it.

Mommy needs a time-out....well soon anyway!

All mommies need a time-out: Time to be women; time to be alone to shop, read and enjoy time with friends; time to reflect and remember that being a mom doesn't 100% define who we are. I have forgotten about this blog since having a baby and starting the baby blog. This is just a simple post to get me back in the habit of thinking about things I still enjoy and have some tiny moment to myself.

First off I am thinking about going back to the gym on a regular basis.
I NEED it. I am exhausted everyday and as odd as it sounds, working out will actually give me more energy, stamina and make me feel better about myself. That being said-it will help me to be a better mom. I need to remember that taking care of myself is actually good for the baby too!
