Hello!

I'm not even entirely sure why I think it would be a good idea to start a blog now.  It's nearing the holiday season, I just started a new job and we just adopted a new dog.  Oh yeah, and finals are coming up for a couple of my classes....  I guess I'm just thinking....why not add in a blog too?  When it rains it pours.

I used to have a makeup/beauty youtube channel and blog.  I did enjoy working on it from time to time.  I just found it to be very time (and money) consuming to ALWAYS be talking about makeup and hair products and always buying the latest and greatest to review.  I've come to a place in my life now where I'm getting to be more satisfied with the products I purchase.  I don't overspend...or at least try not to...and I want things that just 'effin do what they're advertised to do!  So I've turned over the beauty "testing" reigns to the youtube gurus on YouTube and let them waste their money so I don't have to.  That sounded kind of mean, but you know what I'm trying to say... ;)

So that brings me to why I wanted to start a new blog.  I work crazy long hours.  Now granted, I work 12 hour shifts only 3 days a week, but that doesn't mean that the other 4 days are all margaritas on the beach.  I'm busy.  Sometimes I pick up extra shifts, I grocery shop, meal plan, take care of a dog, a man and an apartment.  I'm also going to school part time.  I wanted to make a blog to share tips and tricks I've found along the way to help keep my life and family organized and my head semi-sane.

This blog is dedicated to the working mom, the busy students and to people who live a hectic life.  Hopefully you will find some useful things here to help keep you from pulling your hair out...or at least for just another 5 minutes.

Enjoy.
Laura
