Once upon a time, I had a blog. I started it as a creative and emotional outlet, with hopes to capture a little slice of my life. At the time I was a nursing student and a new mommy to a sweet little baby boy. It was harder to keep up with than I thought it would be, and soon postings were more difficult to write, or I didn't have time, or I didn't know how to put on screen what was happening in my life.
Time passed, and now that sweet baby boy is a precocious 3 1/2 year old (Big K) with a 13 month old baby sister (Little K). I finished school and am currently working as a nurse on a busy medical/surgical floor. I've often thought of trying to catch up my old blog, even made a few recent attempts, but it just seemed like too daunting a task. Instead, I decided to just start over. We'll see if this one takes ;)
As for the title of the first post on my "new" blog, it sort of has double meaning. Once upon a time as in when I last had a blog, and Once Upon a Time, as in the show. I'm not usually a fairy tale sort of girl, but this show has really caught my interest. I work a lot (like an insanely large number of shifts per pay period) and I don't watch a lot of TV. A while back a friend told me about this new show about fairy tale characters who get trapped in our world and don't know they're fairy tale characters. Seemed a little... I don't know, but I wasn't super interested. I finally caught an episode online, and was hooked. I'm never able to watch it when it's actually on, but I found it on Hulu plus. I unexpectedly got the night off work last night, and having been on nights the previous five nights, and having slept the 6 hours prior to getting called for an EA (excused absence), I was unable to sleep. So I've spent the night catching up on the goings on in Storybrooke :) And working on a little project, but that's for another posting...
It's morning now, just about the time little K will be waking up, actually. My goal for this week is to post something every day. Even something small, just to have record of my days (and nights) during this time that passes too quickly. My babies are growing up before my eyes, and I want to remember all the little things that so easily get lost to yesterday.
