sigh

i can't seem to stick with this. i have not been updating any of my many blogs. the only reason i am doing this is because i saw that one of my friends became a follower and i feel bad that i turned out to be such a liar. i did one post on ecospace. the truth is i haven't found where i want to stay yet. and what i want to talk about. i'm superbusy with trying to finish unpacking after six months of moving in. i haven't settled in and it's pissing me off. and there's mostly nothing on the walls. and i've been told that a house only becomes a home when there is something on the walls. i am slowly furnishing the home because i do not want it to look like i walked into ikea and bought a piece of the showroom. i like to think that i have more personality than that and i like my stuff to have some kind of story behind it. don't get me wrong, i love ikea. i just wanted to have a little more originality and inject some creativity into the space as well. other things that make me sigh: i didn't go to tiff this year. my hair is falling out. my boys are growing so fast. i missed the paint sale. i can't afford a stand mixer. i don't want to have to get a flu shot.

but amidst all the complaints, i am definitely in some happier times. we baked cupcakes for the first time. my new baby is doing new things everyday that make us melt. we got a mac. we're making our own cleaners and are doing our part to save the earth. i am spending time with friends and family. i am definitely having the best birthday month ever.
