too long.

I've been away from my blog for too long.

I realize that it has become my outlet, the creative thing I get to do that takes me away from the responsibilities that crowd my life. 

So...what have I been doing?

Well, let's list:
1. PAINTING.  No really, I have done a lot of painting, more paining than one should ever do in that short amount of time. Posts will follow showing my before and afters, but for now, you'll just have to wait anxiously.. ha ha.

2. PACKING.  Are you sensing a theme here?  Yes...moving day is quickly arriving.  Too quickly.  Positives: I think the Glendale Goodwill might be entirely stocked now with just items from my house, seriously.  I've purged and purged until I can't purge anymore.  No more ill-fitting clothes, or toys that don't work.  My children have dressers with neatly folded clothes, and toys with all the parts.  That makes me feel good.  Don't ask me about the organization of all my teaching crap (what am I supposed to do with five years worth of teaching stuff?  Get rid of it?  Keep it?  For what?) or scrapbooking stuff.  One thing at a time, Corinne...one thing at a time.

3. ADJUSTING.  I don't like change.  I never have.  Even when it can be good change.  I won't go into too many details right now, mostly because my mind hasn't even processed the details, but again, one thing at a time, Corinne, one thing at a time.

There is much to look forward to....and I'm keeping my chin up.
