All About Me Monday

Organization makes me GIDDY. I see a label on something and my heart skips a beat. Add some color and SLEEK lines and I'm done for. This blog...not organized. Driving me CRAZY? Slightly. So for my very first 'All About Me Monday' I introduce to you the proposed Love Sweet Love organization plan. Wow, I'm such a loser! ha ha! Yet somehow I'm totally ok with that. :)

I love to read blogs where I feel like I KNOW who the writer is. You know...where I can just tell it's someone I could sit in my backyard drinking lemonade with, as we chat the afternoon away about our husbands lives. So as much fun as it is to copy be INSPIRED by others craft ideas, I love to get to know them through their blogs because I find I respect their work even more and I understand where their desire to CREATE comes from, which in turn inspires me!

All About Me Mondays will be just that. A time where I'll take a little BREAK from crafting and give you a little PEEK into me. Into my life and the things that make this little ol' brain of mine TICK. Sometimes it might be a brain dump-a chance for me to unload all of the things that circle round and round in my brain till I can get it all out! Sometimes it might be about my FAMILY. Or maybe it'll be something new I've learned and want to share with you. And sometimes it might even be a craft. Whatever it is, I hope you'll have FUN getting to know me and find that you want to come pop over to my place for some lemonade-as long as you don't mind being clamored by these two:

They'd love to meet you too cause they're pretty fond of being ADORED.

But back to business...The Proposal (OMGosh-I love that movie. Please tell me you do too! I think I may go watch it as soon as we're done here) is as follows:

Mondays-All About Me Mondays
Tuesdays-Sweet Tute Tuesdays
Wednesdays-Whatever Wednesday
Thursdays-Thankful/Thoughtful Thursday
Fridays-Feature Friday
Saturday-This day belongs to my husband (sorry)
Sunday-This day belongs to my family (sorry-actually not really, it's my fav day of the week!)

You should know 3 things about that list...

1. Each days activity corresponds with the first letter of the name of that day of the week-It's part of my OCD organization. I picture all of these as labels slapped onto my day first thing in the morning and I can't help but SMILE at the beauty of it. If I could spray paint them in matching colors I would (as in Mauve Monday, Turquoise Tuesday,etc). I know I'm sick.

2. There's no description (other than the obvious labels) for each day. Throughout this week, as each day comes, in my posts I'll give a relatively short description of what that day will hold. Make sense?

3. This is not set in stone. First I am a MOTHER and a WIFE. These two responsibilities rightfully take up most of my time (and I wouldn't have it any other way!). Sometimes I will have TIME to blog and sometimes I just won't. So if you don't see a post pop up on the right day, sorry LIFE happened that day! But I promise, promise, promise I'll try and be as on TOP of things as I can be!!!

So there you have it. Blog organization at its FINEST. (or at least my finest:) ) Did you learn a little about me today?!

So come over and Read when you can, Comment when you're in the mood and Follow along if you like what you see! I hope you'll have FUN reading along with me throughout the (hopefully) many weeks to come! I'm SOOO happy you're here as a part of my little world!

I just discovered your blog through Organize and Decorate Everything and I must say I'm glad I did. This post in particular (of the ones I've read thus far) just made me smile. I'll look forward to the organized fun!
