What I want this blog to be...

I have been thinking, stressing and praying about what I want this blog to be about, and in turn, what I want Mippy Mommy to be about. There's just so much I have to write about that I was reaching a point of utter confusion and writer's block trying to narrow it down. Then, I started this blog, and things started to make a bit more sense in my mind. 

So, from here on in, this is the place where I'll write about the day to day life here at Mippy Manor. The things that work (and even what doesn't), meal plans, budgeting, relationships, routines, being greener (and healthier), faith, and family. Mippy Mommy will be all things Mippy related. How things get done working around my disability from the stroke and my bipolar will be discussed in both blogs, I'm sure. 

Mippy Manor will get the full on Mama's Mission, where as Mippy Mommy will just take a condensed Mippy-related version. I hope that I get the opportunity to do reviews on both. So, here's to a better, more thought out solution to split the blogs and tie them together. 

Until Monday...
