Magazines

I am not a big magazine reader. I have gotten Good Housekeeping for the last few years, and it never is read. Ever. I don't know if the content just doesn't interest me anymore, or if I just think I don't have the time to do it.

I have started checking out Creating Keepsakes magazines from the library, and while I love the idea of having those back issues available, there is something ... I don't know ... not satisfying about being able to keep the magazine myself. I will look at a layout and want to rip it out of the magazine, but have to pull myself off of the idea when I see that bar code across the front of the magazine.

And knitting magazines ... don't even get me started. My library carries NONE, which totally bums me out.

So I started looking around, and found this site MagazinePriceSearch.com. AND I found Creating Keepsakes and all of these knitting magazines.

So I think instead of the stand mixer (which I would LOVE to have), I think I am going to treat myself to some magazine subscriptions. Because I don't think I need something else to dust around on my counter. I just need magazines that I can move around my house.

I'm a mom of three peeps ... Queen Bee, The Door Man, and the Chandelier Monkey, and wife to Ace, the Helpful Hardware Man. I created this space to get away from the people known as my inlaws, and because life with three kids and a hubby is all Unexplored Territory.

The nine-year-old who seems to be growing older every minute, has an opinion and a comment for everything, and has a true servant's heart.

The seven-year-old who loves the organization of things, will someday be someone's therapist because of his kind soul, and will more than likely be living with us until he is 40 years old.

The five-year-old with the 13-year-old attitude, who has a dictator's personality, asks you to watch her all the time and say "hold on" to keep your attention, and will someday come home on the back of some dude's motorcycle with 10 tatts and a body piercing or two.

The man of the house, the fixer of things, the winner of prizes, and the only person in his family to escape the South.
