Wow...who would have know.

The thing I think that I will like about blogging is that no one that I know, will know that I am doing it.  I can talk about anything, baking, crafting, work, babies( or lack there of), whatever I want, without worrying about what it is that others will say or think.
I have become obsessed this summer with planning my best friend's baby shower. Odd part of this is that she is not preggers at this moment, she is only thinking about becoming preggers. I know that this is crazy, I know that it is odd.  I literally can only talk to one person about it, her, since she herself is obsessed about planning my shower.  I am this moment, am not preggers either.  It is comforting to know that someone is as crazy as I am.  Needless to say, when I say obsessed, I mean obsessed.  I have her presents bought, all the party supplies done, the food planned, everything.  I think that I am thinking about it so much for 2 reasons.  1.  I have a week off every year where I have NOTHING that I have to do.  This was that week. 2.  I have been trying to get preggers for over a year and this week, I finally went to the doctor to say, " hmmm...what is going on here".  I think that me obsessing over something else allows me to stop from obsessing over my empty womb :). 
Over the past week or so, I have come across so many websites that I am in love with.  Some that I think, "Wow, she has way too much time", and some that I think are just amazing.  I have made it my mission to interject a little more "Martha" into my life.  I have always looked to crafts/party planning/card making etc and thought of myself as a mini Martha.  Having done this research this week, I have realized that I need to step up my game.  I know, I know, how am I going to find the time?  I really do not know.  I am sure that you will find out more and more about me through this blog so I don't need to bore you with the details all now, but know that I am generally a busy person.  I have decided to MAKE myself do something Marthaish everyweek.  I will share my crafts, inspirations, successes and failures with you here.  Tomorrow, I will be making cakepops, since I have been staring at Bakerella for the past 2 hours. 
I will see what I come up with...but here is the inspiration http://www.bakerella.com/category/pops-bites/cake-balls/ and you will soon see the outcome. 
Enjoy your night, sleep tight and enjoy a little Martha in your day tomorrow.
