First post

Let's see... this is my fourth or fifth attempt at blogging... not sure why I've never been able to stick with one.  Maybe I tried to narrow it down too much... maybe my lack of commitment... who knows.  Anyways... this blog is going to be my outlet.  I'm one of those people who is insanely creative in my brain... but that's as far as it goes. I can design things in my head, make a plan... but it stops there.  I can't draw, sew, craft, etc.  But I can write.  I've been writing since elementary school.  I love it.  It's my creative, cathartic outlet.  I wish there was a cool finished product to show off, as there is with sewing and drawing, but alas, it's just me and my thoughts. 
Creating a blog is always the hardest at the beginning... thinking of a title, designing a background.  Surprisingly enough, the name popped in my head rather quickly.  I like it- it sums up everything I feel about my life.  "It's never easy, but it's always worth it."
So, if you have stumbled upon me randomly, welcome to my life.  If you already know me, then prepare to know me a little more than you may have ever wanted to.  :-) 

Here's me in a nutshell:  I'm 29 years old, and I've been married for 8 1/2 years to my husband, Homero.  We have two boys.  Nicholas is 5 and Gabriel is almost 8.  Both boys play baseball, so that's where you will find us three days a week- practice and games.  I work as a second grade teacher at a charter school in Dallas.  My husband does auto body repair work.  When we aren't working or attending baseball games, you can find our family at Six Flags.  For the first time ever, we got season passes and we are LOVING it!  The boys love going, and I love that we have an entertainment option whenever we want it.
Well, you made it through the first post.  I can't promise that my blog will always be entertaining, but it will be real.  I don't do fake.  :-)
