New year, New blog

So here it goes… my first blog post.

I’ve been wanting to do this for a year now, and I am finally here. I’m going to do it!

Hi, my name is Pamela Hughes, butmost people just call me Pam. I love crafting, decorating, and DIY projects. I also enjoy baking—but NOT cooking. During the day I’m a first grade teacher. In my spare time (which there isn’t too much of that) I am usually hanging with my family, on the computer (I’m addicted to pinterest), or reading magazines. I like to run too. Notice I said “like”—not “love”—for that one.

I just bought my first house in Tampa, Florida. I live there with my boyfriend of 6 years and my dog Frankie.

I’ve decided to start blogging as a way of journaling my adventures of being a home owner. I am not the domestic type, so this could be interesting. I’m sure that this blog will include many trials and errors, as well as life lessons along the way. My goal in blogging is to keep myself and others motivated. I hope to inspire, as well as be inspired. Most of all, I would like to connect with others. Feel free to leave a comment. I’d love to hear from you!
