I am woman

I am woman, stand back and hear me roar! As we prepare for the New Year, it is time to look back and reflect on all that we have accomplished and give ourselves a big pat on the back. If you are a family of one, you have laundered 728 socks (not that anyone has that many socks except maybe the NFL, it just how many you have washed). Unfortunately, the washing machine did not return all the socks that were put into it, leaving a sock shortage. If you prepared one meal a day, you have washed 365 plates, and 547.5 pots/pans. Of course, if you are a good domestic goddess like me *choke* you have dusted and vacuumed once a week. Then there are all the trips to the grocery store and countless hours of other chores too numerous to mention. But let's not dwelling on that part of our lives. Instead, congratulate yourself on all the wonderful creations you have made this year, the things you have learned and the new friendships that have been formed, and then stand back, be proud, and let out a ROAR.

  1. Awesome card and post! Love the colorful lion. I'm one of those domestic goddesses, plus working outside the home, so some days you can hear me roar all across town! I just read in your sidebar that you have two Goldens. Oh, how wonderful that must be! So much to love! We were tempted to bring the whole litter home when we went to choose our puppy. So cute and sweet with different personalities. We still think about getting another boy and naming him Beaver, but then we think we don't want to dilute the attention we give Wally. Silly, I know. He's spoiled, but he doesn't know it. Dang, I love my sweet boy! Happy new year!

  2. HI Tammy. I bet I still know all the words to the song too.
    I am going to tell Super Star the sock count as he is the launderer "Par excellence". There are NO lost socks from his wash!

    Your card is very cute too!
    Happy New Year to you.
