little things...

For several years I have been wanting to start a blog, but have thought...why? Unlike some I don't have crazy city adventures, world travels, or a wildly successful and interesting career to blog about. What I have is...the little things. For example, today is President' Day and I got to sleep in on a Monday...sweet! The morning was spent rearranging bedrooms to accommodate Jeremy's new big bed. Lunch was at Chili's with Bub and Caroline and then to Books-A-Million to do my taxes. A car wash, trip to Goodwill with Tara, and an awesome chair for $4.99 made up the rest of the afternoon. The highlight of the day is sitting in my living room with a fire while watching the "Bachelor." Yes, I know it is silly and quasi-trashy, but I love it.

I thought this would also be a great way to communicate with the people in our lives who used to follow http://www.colemanitis.com/, but who have been disappointed by Jeff's posting lately. No promises of fish tank talk or free screen savers. But, I also promise you won't see my watch accidentally make it in every picture I take. Although Coleman, the Internets original blogger, has fallen down on his blogging duties, he still is keeping up the Flickr account which you can see at www.flickr.com/colemanitis.

So, this blog will be a way to share with you my "little things"...silly things the kids say, great deals I find in thrift stores, commentary on the latest chick flick I've seen, and the such. Okay, time for the bachelor's date with Vienna (not my fav)...good night.
