defining the circles that make me whole
Making tracksPosted by Alli on November 26, 2007
It has been drizzling all day (it is pouring now) and Fuller is all blah from his cold, so somewhere my energy has been sucked dry. I’m fighting the urge to take a nap, which is usually my M.O. the day after we return from any trip. I made a list earlier today and it [...]
To do: just do itPosted by Alli on November 18, 2007
Tomorrow I have to get up and really stay focused on the tasks I need to accomplish before our family leaves for Thanksgiving. We leave on Tuesday and won’t return until Sunday. I don’t really have time to pussy foot around and analyze why I am stalling or ignoring certain things. I just need to [...]
My FootprintPosted by Alli on November 17, 2007
I spent some time online today filling in forms to create a footprint of my life. The website, MyFootprints.com, is a way for me to have an organized way to pass on who I was (favorite books, hobbies, pictures) and what my last wishes are (pull the plug and creamation). I also invited some family [...]
Let the nightmares beginPosted by Alli on November 4, 2007
I head out to Las Vegas on Wednesday. Are you jealous? This is a very special trip for me because it is my first trip without my husband and son- ever. Also, on Friday I will turn 31. One of the purposes of going to Las Vegas is a blogging conference, but more importantly, I [...]
Roomba winner: Me!Posted by Alli on November 3, 2007
When I went to Atlanta yesterday, I won a Roomba! I enjoy winning things and picking up swag. If it is a t-shirt, a coffee mug, or even a canvas tent, I would probably want to get it. I can’t say enough about how our first Roomba has helped our family in our housekeeping. It [...]

I really appreciate the 250+ comments on the entry and hope some of you return just to read up and participate in this blog. Thanks to Shannon for [...]
Get it done: tarnish on my multi-tasking queen crownPosted by Alli on October 30, 2007
I have always been the multi-tasking queen. So many things to do all at the same time. But somewhere in the last two weeks I found myself faltering and unable to juggle even two balls and feel like anything was accomplished. I realized yesterday my juggling balls were too big. Sometimes you just have to [...]
Changes and thinning out the closetPosted by Alli on October 25, 2007
If you know me, you might know my major gripe about seasonal changes. I hate the musical chairs game I have to play with the clothes in my closet and drawers. I have a dreams of a year round closet where I just leave it all there for me to access 365 days a year. [...]
Almost better than morning coffeePosted by Alli on October 17, 2007
Recently I have been naturally waking up around 7:15- 7:30. The amazing thing is my son has been sleeping in until about 8 a.m. I think it is because it stays darker in the morning hours, but whatever the reason, I’ll take it. What I usually do is go to the living room, sit on [...]
ListingPosted by Alli on October 2, 2007
I got busy today, getting all laundry clean, dry, folded, and put away. I was able to roomba three rooms, even though I only had two on my “to do” list. Fuller and I leave on Thursday to visit my grandmother and then head over to Lake Martin for the rest of the weekend. I [...]
