School days are fast approaching! What a quick, rainy summer here in Maine! It's been a true adventure juggling work, vacation, summer camp and day to day entertainment of my kids....but in three days...they're back! I have unashamedly always taken the first week of school off for my own personal mom vacation....They only go two days this week, so why throw work into the mix.....Anyhow...I've managed to put together a pretty solid school wardrobe that didn't break the budget and inevitably parts of the wardrobe ends up in the school lost and found boxes...but the kids will look great for about two weeks and then I'll be back to examining the odd hole and stain here and there and just praying for something that can be turned inside out and still look good.....
While they're opening their mathbooks and negotiating the lunch lines...I plan to put on my favorite Bonnie Raitt cd and repaint the kitchen....
Favorite places to creatively recharge

don't mow the flowers, Marty!
About Me
- maria
- I have no good pictures, stemming back to my senior high school pictures to all the blurry or half crazed snapshots taking over the years...i am a mom of 4, wife, daughter, sister, friend. I am lucky to be given this life and skeptical that I was the best choice given my disdain for laundry, housework and cooking. However, I am pretty good at making Halloween costumes, ordering pizza and planning great vacations. When we are entirely broke, I like to respond by rearranging the living room, painting the bathroom and convincing my kids that they want to switch bedrooms.
