Where have I been? Man, life is clipping past me at quite a rapid pace. Between DH's work, negotiating, re-negotiating, and re-re-negotiating a contract on our house, having it inspected, and spending what seems like hours on the phone with our realtor, there just aren't many spare moments. But in the ones I do have, I've been scheming.
I am determined to make my hours home with my children more enjoyable and more productive. Right now it's survival mode; keep Brother from seriously injuring himself. Keep Sister from watching too much tv, keep the siblings playing nicely, keep the clutter from swallowing me whole. By 6:00 every day I feel very, how shall I say... put out. And just in time for the DH's homecoming! So lovely.
I don't like this attitude. It's too much Eyeore, too little Tigger. (A la The Last Lecture .) So, I'm scheming. And if I had time, I'd share my scheme with you. As it is, a bottom needs wiping, a boy needs bathing (desperately!) so I'd better run along.
I shall return.

Welcome!
Thanks for stopping by my humble little blog. No, really. I mean it. I love to read your comments. However, I'm a big slacker when it comes to personally responding to comments. I can't lie about that. So, if I don't respond, please don't think I didn't appreciate the time and effort it took for you to post your comment. I truly do. And most likely, I'll check out your profile, and your blog, and your Flickr account, etc. And I'll probably even add you to my list of favorites because I'm a favorite-a-holic and, heck, what's one more when you already have a couple hundred! So, thanks again for stopping by, and ya'll come back now, y'hear?
About Me
- Susan
- I'm a mama to two little ones: daughter known here as Sister (3 and 1/2) and son known here as Brother (1 and 1/2.) What's the mission? To feed, clothe, and keep the children alive, while also managing to nurture creativity, develop spiritual faith, and have some fun. (And somehow manage to keep the house clean enough to avoid an investigation by social services.)For this blog the mission is to document the daily adventures of life, and hopefully to share and connect with other like-minded mamas.

I hear ya. I was thinking the same thing myself today, but my reasons are different. 1. I have spring fever, which always comes about this time every year, daring me to just quit homeschooling for a few months.
And 2. I have allergies and they wipe me out - the pollen is knee deep.
And so we're managing, but it's not always very cheerfully done. I try, but I'm human.
Same as you. :)
Oh, by the way - award time at my place. Stop by and pick it up - I'm working on it now!
Ha! Am I freaking you out yet? I'm not a stalker - I'm just trying to get the awards to the right place.
But I had to say -
I dig your music. Your selections look about as eclectic as mine. Very cool.
Hang in there...We have all been in that place. Doesn't the scheming make it much more bearable though. I think it does!
