Life of a Soccer Mom: Home is where the heart is....

Home is where the heart is....

And boy do we heart our home.

I'm BACK!!

I am so excited to be able to blog again. And to be sleeping in my own bed. In my own house. With my very cute husband.

We moved in on Saturday with the help of a very brave man. Our savior, Stan. If it weren't for him I would have been carrying a washer and dryer up fourteen stairs. Actually I probably wouldn't have, they would have never made it past stair one.

We have been unpacking and setting everything up ever since and yesterday I finally got around to setting up the computer. Now if I could ever find my usb cord to add pictures I could show off some of our new digs.

The boys are loving the new house and especially having their own rooms. Jason already has his room completely unpacked and looking good. He is very proud of it. They love the stairs and I already foresee numerous bumps and bruises in our future from random stair jumping incidents. Boys will be boys.

Just thought I would pop in and say hello. Gotta go pick up the boys from school but expect lots of posts in the near future!

Ahh, it's so good to be HOME.

Words to live by

We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we get a nicer car, are able to go on a nice vacation, when we retire.
The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway.
For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.
This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have. And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time...and remember that time waits for no one.
So stop waiting until you finish school, until you go back to school, until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until you have kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work, until you retire, until you get married, until you get divorced, until Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your car or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until fall, until winter, until you are off welfare, until the first or fifteenth, until your song comes on, until you've had a drink, until you've sobered up, until you die, until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy...

Happiness is a journey, not a destination.

Thought for the day: "Work like you don't need money, Love like you've never been hurt, And dance like no one's watching."
