Cooking spray

1 large shallot, sliced

Growing and learning everyday.

I have been learning so much over the past few months. Boy its funny I keep thinking back to when I was little and how my mom was always so tiered. I always said that won't be me I will do this and I will do that. Well its official after 6 months I'm am not sleepy I am down right exhausted, I'm up until 11pm or 12am and then sleep until about 5:30 when my baby boy wakes me up :). Just thinking about him makes me smile! Its funny I wish could have gotten up like that a few years ago. I would be one skinny bitch LOL.  But anyway I have been thinking I need some structure, change I need to be better organized. So I decided today to start I need to mange my time better and declutter my life. I need put family 1st, and my job 2nd. I need to stop stressing the small stuff.
