Why I Started This Blog...

I consider myself to be an average stay-at-home mom. I'm not creative or crafty like most of the mommy bloggers out there. I hate crafting and I don't even know how to decorate my house! I also don't think I'm a very good writer. So why am I starting a blog?  Over the years I've discovered that I do have talents. I'm very good at planning and organizing my life so it doesn't feel like a circus. I'm not claiming to be perfect and I definitely have moments when my life feels totally chaotic. But I've learned a lot of ways to get through life so it doesn't feel chaotic and stressful. So that's why I created this blog. I want to share the things that I've learned so I can hopefully help others to feel like they can organize their life.

These are the things that I will talk about in this blog:

Travel
My family loves to travel and I am always planning our next vacation. I've learned some awesome tips over the years on how to plan vacations. In fact, many people have told me that I should start a vacation planning business. I don't even know how to begin to do that so I'm doing the next best thing, a blog.

Money Saving
I think of myself as the ultimate bargain shopper. There's nothing that brings me joy and satisfaction like finding a killer deal! In this blog, I'll share my money-saving tips to help others get the most for their dollar.

Cooking
I have a passion for cooking and collecting recipes. I have a cooking blog, Cooking With Mandy, that I started 4 years ago. It's been fun to have this blog but I felt like it was time for a change. Rather than just posting recipes, I want to incorporate all of the other things that I've learned over the years. I'll post my new recipes in this blog and I'll also re-post some of my favorites.

Family Life
I have been married for 13 years and I'm a stay-at-home mom of 4 kids. I love my job! There is nowhere else in the world I'd rather be. But sometimes life can get pretty crazy! My kids are starting to get a little older and they're involved in a lot of activities. It's so hard to juggle homework, chores, dinner, and getting them to all of their activities. I'll share my tips on how to balance everything and not feel like you're going crazy.

I hope you enjoy this blog and I hope I can help others to feel like their life is less of a circus!
