My quirks...
1. I have to have everything in it's special place, especially if I know we are having company over. I have to have my own time out in my shower every night. It's my relaxation after the dramas of 4 boys all day.
2. I love to spent a day bargain hunting and even buy things in advance to put away for the boys for Xmas. Just things I know they would absolutely love.
3. I really am a home body though. I hate going out when it's cold and would rather stay home with a good movie, chocolate (of course) and my hubby.
4. I have to have all the kids uniforms out on their bed and semi know what I am wearing the next day in order to be ready on time.I absolutely hate to be late for an appointment.
5. I have to have my own time out and in the shower every night to start to wind down from my busy day with 4 boys. It is my relaxation.
6. I can't be late. I hate it.
OMG you don't want to know how much time I've spent trying to get this link thing figured out. If you can't tell I'm new to all this. As it is I don't think all my links worked. Any advice welcomed please. I could get some names underlined for a link when I hit enter but not all. I couldn't figure out how just to add the blogs name as a link as you did Tanya.How dumb am I ??????????????? I also had trouble the other day when trying to take a photo from a blog onto my own. How do you do that???? Please please please help a person in distress.

Oh Kristen I had so much trouble too!!!! LOL. it took me hours to figure out!!! what I did was after the person's name I typed in the name of their blog then highlighted the blog name then clicked on the link symbol when that comes up I typed in the address clicked ok!!! I couldn't get it to work the way you did LOL. it's the first time I've ever done this and I probably did it wrong anyway! so Kristen you're not dumb at all we're just technically challenged LOL. I hope this helps in some way but it would be great to know how to do it properly!
I too have uniforms ready the night before and the lunches as well otherwise trying to get 4 kids & hubby organized is impossible, and I hate being late too!!!! but hubby is always late!! arghhh!!!!
have a great weekend!! xx
Hey, Kristen thanks for the Tag, will do that this week.
I loved reading yours. I am glad you take time for you. I love a nice shower as well.
At the moment it is about the only thing I can do on my own.

Hi Kristen
I also have a home for everything, I don't like clutter and at the end of everyday ensure all of Sav's toys, books etc are back in their home. Sav now helps put away her things before her bath. Actually, when she has her lunch time sleep I always put everything away as well. Possibly a little crazy because as soon as she's awake all the books etc come out again. Oh well, if that's my worst vice it aint that bad.
Kristen, I'm not that flash on the computer either, but I use the following steps to link people's blog sites to my blog entries:
1. In the context of the post I type the blog owner's name, or the title of their blog. Then I highlight the words that I want people to be able to click on to be directed to their blog site.
2. After highlighting the words I then use the format tool bar - where they have the symbol to make your writing bold, italics, text colour AND then the next one is the link symbol. Click on this link symbol and it should bring up a hyperlink information box.
3. In this box all you need to do is type out the URL address - the blog address. Alternatively, you can cut it (the blog address) from the blog you are referring to and paste it into this URL address box. Then press OK. Presto, it should be done (if I have explained it well enough!!)
You also asked about how I include old photos on my blog. We have a flatbed scanner. So we scan the pictures into the computer, save them in a file and then publish the photos as you would normally.
It is so frustrating when you spend ages trying to figure out something which you feel should be fairly straightforward.
Hopefully I have been of some help to you. Good luck.
Hope you are having a great weekend

Hey I see you tagged me. I'll get it up soon. Our little Cooper is turning one...I want to get a post about him up first. I just didn't want to you wonder if I had noticed.
I love that you stash gifts. I wish I could do that. I try sometimes but end up pulling them out on the days we are bored around here. You must have a better hiding spot than I do.
