My name is Sharon, I'm a 30-somethin'. I love my hubby and kids, baking, animals etc. Trying to raise my 2 littles to be awesome human beings, being a good wifey, keeping it together, and trying to get into my dream career. Plus, I need sleep right? If I could have a super power, it would totally be to stop and start time whenever I could so I could get shit done in a flash.

My youngest is 20 months. For the last couple months, his fav daily thing to say is, "Mommy? Oh la la!" Whenever he discovers something new and exciting, or when he makes a mistake. It really is super cute. I thought this title sweet and fitting, since I get a lot of surprises and mistakes daily (in my case anyway). I'm just going to write on here because I feel like it (plus I need a place to drop my thoughts, and whatever ideas come my way!) 

Sharon
xoxo

Ikea Forhoja DIY Project

Last fall, my son decided to write in pen "Fish" all over one side about 4 times in huge letters while I was out and hubby was watching him. At first I was p-oed that he did that, but then I figured, he's practicing his spelling right? Lol. So that gave me good incentive to finally take care of the table! I started with sanding the top and sides, especially where the writing was. I chose a walnut colored oil stain from Minwax that I got from Canadian Tire for the top of the table to match my walnut cupboards. I stained the top with the oil based finish with just one coat. I didn't want it to be too dark. I used a regular paint brush and let it dry o...

Burnout, Anxiety, & Panic Attacks Part 2

I got 2 weeks off for sick leave. Within that 2 weeks, I continued to have chest pains and migraines. I felt like I lost all control of my body. And then there were two sleepless nights in a row. By the second night, I begged my husband to please go to the pharmacy and get me any sleeping pill that I could take with my antibiotics that my doctor had prescribed for my sinusitis. That night I took 2 pills, and still did not sleep. I cried on and off the entire night. I felt so tired, so broken, and my mind went to a dark place. I finally fell asleep sometime after 4 am and was then woken up by my son at 6 am. We had planned to go blueberry picking that day. I really didn't want to go, but Saturdays are the only days we as a family are all together. I took two Advils and some Tylenol and headed out the door. I smiled at my kids, and tried my best to have fun. But inside, I was tired, I felt like I had nothing left. When we finally came home, I tried to nap. Instead, I experienced so...
