Well I did it! My first blog and to be quite honest I feel a little silly, to be taking time to sit here and write about myself, at first it seemed/seems a little vain but I suppose it's a social norm these days and is similar to journaling. I know my husband will probably give me a hard time about it at first but he's got his own brew blog for his beer stuff and I figure once I'm at home with our little one and starting up all these "hobbies" I may like a place to keep track of what I'm working on. So I'd like to justify hopping on the blogging band-wagon as a way to track my new hobbies.
I do already have some hobbies in mind, some I've already been doing but not near as much as I'd like. Sewing, as most people know about is one of them. Just in the short time I've been at it and with the few projects I've attempted and even less I've completed, it'd be good to be able to write down some of my mistakes or things I learned so I can remember them for the next time. I've heard of a nonprofit group called "Project Linus" that makes blankets of all kinds and sizes to give to children and teenagers so I'd like to be a part of that and keep on going with personal projects as well.
I love gardening even though I still kill plants, especially indoor plants. I hope to create two beautiful ornamental gradens this spring/summer in our backyard along with growing some vegetables in the awesome greenhouse my husband built me for Christmas. We also have a mexican lime tree, lemon tree, and some other orange citrus tree (no, it's not naval oranges; I still need to figure out what it is) that I'd like to take a little better care of and have them actually produce some good fruit.
Oh the dreams of what's to come. For now I suppose I can blog about life as it happens and live in the now. What I'm most excited about is our ultrasound next week and then being able to get the nursery ready for our little baby hasbrouck. Oh wait, still looking forward to the future......
