I'm so excited to share that I'll be doing my first giveaway this coming week! I have no idea what I'm doing, so bear with me here. It's been a busy few weeks and I'm trying to get all my ducks in a row. So...stay tuned for a giveaway and please enter! And if you have suggestions? Please share!
Do you ever get so busy that you shut down? I thought I'd be used to the busier schedule and watching Ila by now...but so far? Not at all. I keep trying to schedule playdates, keep the house clean and stay on top of all my errands. Not doing so great at all that...then add in blogging? I try to read the blogs I follow, I try to comment...I try to enter giveaways. I start...then find myself on Facebook playing Bubble Speed. I zone out. Before I know it, an hour has passed and I've accomplished nothing.
So...any suggestions from you moms who have it all together? I write things down like crazy, I have lists all over the place...I just lose the motivation to get things done! It doesn't help that I start to think I have it all together and something new gets thrown in there for me to juggle! I thought by now I'd be doing more with this blog...instead I tend to bury my head in the sand. I'd like to get on a schedule and post more, but when I sit down to do it I can't focus or come up with much to write about!
Babysitting my niece! Scotty absolutely adores her...I finally let him hold her and he's more of a baby hog than me!

So...I've schedule a post for each day I'm on vacation (obviously). HOWEVER, as I'm writing this (on Saturday the 11th) I'm panicking about having no internet. I'd like to think this makes me dedicated. My husband laughs and thinks it's a little pathetic. He who cannot leave without his computer whenever we go on vacation.
I've researched and it looks like they have Wi-Fi at the library and around the building. SO I'm going to bring the laptop with me and try to connect while sitting in the parking lot. Not creepy at all, right? And super exciting for the 3 year old. Heck, maybe I can get a connection in town and he can explore the beach with Heidi? We'll see. Just in case I'll be setting my desktop computer up again so I can have my e-mail on there JUST IN CASE I can't connect.
My big worry? What if I win a giveaway? You're supposed to respond within 24-48 hours, if I can't connect to my internet I might not get my prize! Now that I've said this and I'm making all these elaborate plans I won't win anything. But? I'll be prepared. And I'll know what to do NEXT trip. Let's be honest, the hubby is going to be super excited to find out we can actually get free internet up there. I might even be able to drag him away on vacation! That's right, I married a workaholic.
So if you see any new posts from me with pictures while at the cabin? Say yay for me, I've figured out and successfully connected to the internet on-island! If you don't see picture posts until I get back? I was either unable to connect to the internet OR I forgot my camera, it ran out of batteries or I couldn't figure out how to get the pictures off. I'll have tons when I'm home though, I promise.
Enjoy your week, I know I will
