Things that make me lose my mind.

The Burnout.
The burnout happened, you know the burnout. When you add one thing after another on your list of To-Do's, you become so over whelmed that you HALT...STOP...QUIT... doing everything on your list. Well I got to that point already in the year.
My back went out just around the first of the year, I used that as an excuse not to do anything. When I say anything I mean anything, it's been a struggle to even get up the muster to really OCD ( as friends call it) clean my house the way I like besides the daily need-to clean.
Slowly I'm making my way back into the 'super woman' role, that woman who loves hearing " I don't know how you find the time to do all this,amazing". I'll admit, I LOVE to hear that, it drives me to do MORE actually. I've learned recently that my love language is 'words of affirmation' tied with 'acts of service'....I suggest anyone looking to learn better communication, go to www.5lovelanguages.com . back on track Kim,back on track....
So anyone who knows me, knows I like a challenge. I've recently become a fan of quilting. I've been working on a fantastic one recently and in true Kim fashion, I've found the next quilt inspiration. It's called the Cathedral Window quilt.
isn't it BEAUTIFUL?! I think I've fallen in love with this style quilt. This will be my Feb project :)
Getting back on track is the hardest part, you get into a habit of slacking and finding that motivation is hard. Instead of making excuses I need to just DO IT. Today was a good start, just keep it up Kim, keep it up.
What do you do to get motivated? or Who motivates you?

Crafting the Madness
This holiday season is starting out Crafty in the Reale household. We've got our Advent Calendar activities set, a Christmas Cookie swap party planned, and of course crafty projects out the wazoo! I checked out the Joann Fabrics ad that came in the mail and figured now was the time to buy some fabric. Over all the kids did good, given they needed lunch and were hyped from candy (ya, I know....bad mom).
Can you guess what project we have next? I bet you can't ;)
