A Formspring question (still sitting in my inbox, yet to be answered) prompted me to start tracking how I was spending my time. Actually it’s due to several questions, all along the vein of “I just don’t understand why you can’t graduate/do this/that/the other, you just sit at home all day”. Good question(s). Why do I go to sleep each night feeling like I haven’t accomplished anything that day? I’ve been tracking everything I do for 9 days now (everything except bathroom visits, just go ahead and assume something like once an hour), and I’m still not ready to stop because I’m as of yet still not sure where it all goes. I’ll be posting a nice breakdown at the end of my experiment (when will it end?) as I think it’s rather fascinating to realize how much time goes into showering/dressing, cleaning, blogging, talking to my husband, sleeping, etc.

The downside for my little blog? I feel less motivated to post because I’m embarrassed how much time I devote to That Wife! I’m definitely feeling more motivated to get some advertising put together, as I probably wouldn’t feel so guilty if I could make a bit of money on the side. Regular posting should resume soon though, as I have entirely too many posts I want to write to stay away for long. Midwife visits! Baby shower plans (and a registry)! Why TH is a rockstar husband to his pregnant wife! Plans for my mom to fly down for the birth! Adventures in the kitchen! An excess of exclamation points can’t even begin to describe how ready I am to share this with all of you.

I’m just going to have to figure out how to crank these posts of mine out a little bit faster.

If you end up purchasing anything from The Redheaded Actress shop because you discovered Kate’s shop on That Wife, please mention my name. Feedback like that means more giveaways from me in the future!

Operation email inbox? Success! I can’t say I have zero messages because apparently the people I’m contacting do not take months to reply, and some of them wrote back within 24 hours. Imagine!

It’s 30 degrees outside in Dallas today (I realize no one thinks that is a big deal, but remember, I’ll be paying my dues this summer!), and so receiving this gorgeous handmade checkered scarf from Julie was a particularly sweet treat. I’m pretty sure a gift like this doubled the coolness quotient of my wardrobe.

I’ve been enjoying the site Ask Me Anything and the questions you are sending my way so much that I’ve decided to add a permalink to the top of That Wife. Look up and you’ll see it sitting there for good under the heading “Got a ?”. I love the variety of topics the questions are covering, and I’m taking notes for future post possibilities as I answer them! As of right now my inbox is sitting at over 100 questions so it may take awhile for me to get to yours, but I don’t plan on deleting any. Some of them are really difficult to answer and so I like to let them sit for awhile before I respond. I’m often really surprised by the things you are curious about, but my extroverted self love this new form of self-indulgent over-sharing.

I hope you are enjoying reading through the responses as much as I enjoy answering them! have any of you started your own Ask Me Anything account? Share the link below!

Like I need another “thing” in my life. I tend to jump on website bandwagons pretty quickly, and this was just one more I couldn’t pass up.
