Crafty Scrappy Happy {37} and a little real life!

I am doing my very best to keep a balance between work and play…

but working my day job and then working on my home renovations have kind of started to consume my life!

Don’t get me wrong I love seeing the progress and I seriously can hardly wait to start showing you finished work….

buttt until then I am starting to really really miss just simple crafting that I love doing…

if only most of my crafting tools weren’t buried in piles of boxes in my garage right now!

So I apologize if my blog isn’t what it usually is….

but really…. I feel just like Kylie… {my pup} I am chasing my tail and just trying to keep up with all of the projects that come along with being a new home owner!

Boy oooh boy—I wish you guys would have warned me!

:)

but hey—-blogging is SUPER important to me….

because I consider you all friends.

And I will get back to it SOON!

And I just know that you, my friends have all chased your own tails a time or two, so you must understand—right?!

It is now officially that time of the week—-time for you to link you your AMAZING projects!

Just link back here either on your blog or in your post!

:)

And I can’t wait to drool!

AND p.s. if you haven’t had a chance yet, be sure to go over and enter my Current Scentsy Giveaway going on right now!

  1. Oh sweetie! We will all still be here. Pace yourself and try to enjoy the process =) It’s supposed to be fun. Baby steps, it does not have to be finished tomorrow. Remember to get away from the house some too so you don’t get burnt out. Hugs!!

  2. It’s one of those things you can’t prepare for…it’s shocking at first, but keep looking back at your before pictures and you’ll see how far you’ve truly come! No worries with your bloggy friends…we TOTALLY get it and are cheering you on!!! You picked out a perfect location and your house is going to be beautiful, too!

    XO, Aimee

  9. Hey, I’m new here, but so glad I found this blog! Don’t feel bad…I struggle too! Balancing the day job with our projects is super tought!

  10. Chasing my tail constantly!! I feel your pain – when we moved, we rented while we renovated and my stuff was in boxes for 2 years!! You’ll feel like a kid at Christmas when you get all your boxes opened up again.

  19. Thanks so much for hosting, Jaime!! Your dogs are soooooooooo cute:)

  20. Hi Jaime! Your house looks wonderful! So much involved…but, it will be soooo worth it. I love seeing the updates on FB. I seriously need to be relaxing on that dock at sunset. ;) xoxo

  21. I guess we all have been feeling like that from time to time, and I can assure you that this will pass! Take your time, your real life is more important than your blog because once you come back with all your great ideas, we will still be here waiting for you (probably just like your cute dog when you come home ;-)

  22. Jamie, thank you so much for hosting, among renovating, working, blogging, and hang in there! Reno’s are a ton of work but so worth it :)

    Hugs, Tanya
