Welcome!

Managing a household of 4 (plus 10 animals) can be crazy, add in 2 full time jobs and life can get out of hand! Our Life Without Instructions is more than just a personal journal for me. I live a busy, often crazy life and I created this blog to share thoughts on my REAL life and how I manage get everything done (or sometimes how I fail to do so!)... Living life without instructions is a matter of trial and error, success and failures, but I am here to chronicle it.
