It has been a crazy 2013 so far. With the plethora of illness our family has battled, as well as juggling two (no, make that 4 ) start up businesses in our household, oh, and having kids around – things have been nutso.

It has felt that every project we have started on has been left hanging for some reason or another. We keep bouncing around and resolving little bits of issues, but never getting full completion.

I always trust that the universe provides as it should, and so with the ole universe dicking me around for the last 3 months, I have been getting kind of choked.

Until today.

I woke up this morning, and yes, I still have a sick kid, but it felt like suddenly the pieces were falling into place.

That “click” when the key finds its home.

Maybe the universe changed?  Maybe it is just timing?

Things are coming together, good things, multiple things, and all in the same day!

I like to think that the last 3 months have been the foundation. The finding our way through, cleaning up old messes and creating a strong base for the awesome stuff that is to come.

We have wandered, and wiggled our way down paths as we have explored and researched options.

Now, we are starting to commit

And I LOVE committing!

Last year we bought a boat.

Today, we finally found it a home.

(Finally we will get this bloody boat OFF the driveway and into the drink.)

But, not before we christen her with a bottle of champagne and a new name.

And what name did this family pick?

Why Ariel, of course.

She has always been the hubby’s favorite Disney Princess and it is a family boat.
