I have discovered that there really isn’t enough hours in the day. Honestly I think I could get up at 4:00 am and still not get everything done. For instance today I need to compare term life insurance quotes, do a lot of housework, do some blogging, do some transcription work and go get some groceries. Where is the me time??? This is why I think I need more hours in my day. Maybe a 30 hour day would work better for me than a 24 hour day??? I don’t know maybe if we increased the hours I would find more stuff that needs to get done and 30 hours wouldn’t be enough for me either. Oh well. I guess I’ll get done what I can today and the rest can wait until tomorrow.
Now with the kids back in school I have found that I have a lot of free time on my hands. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m certainly not complaining. So for the past few days I have been trying to get into some sort of routine. I have been cleaning house, have started on a crafting project, revised another blog of mine and have even had time to browse the Internet for the best colon cleanse treatment for my husband to get him ready for his next check up. I just love having all this free time, and if I can manage my time wisely I really do think that I will be able to get a lot accomplished.
I know most people get excited when the weekend arrives, but not me. I work the weekends so they really don’t mean that much to me anymore. My favorite day of the week is Monday. When Monday rolls around that means the two kids are back to school and my husband is back to work so I have a lot more me time. I can’t get a thing done when they are all home. So when Monday arrives it gives me a chance to do everything that I was unable to do over the weekend. So Monday in my house is the golden day.
This morning I work up to frost and ice on my car. When I took the kids down to the bus stop it was only +1 degrees outside. That is wicked cold. I guess that means that I can put away the patio furniture and get ready for a long… long winter.
I know, it was that much earlier that I was complaining about the summer and how hot it was. And now I’m starting to moan about the cold. Well if you haven’t figured it out yet, then let me tell you all. I’m a complainer. I don’t like it too hot or too cold and I will complain if I have it either way. Oh well, if today was any indication, we are going to be in for one cold fall and winter.
Well the kids have only been in school for a week and my youngest son is sick once again. I don’t know if this happens to him all the time because he is around kids at school that are sick or if it’s because he has to go out in the early mornings to catch the bus and it’s quite cold here in the mornings. Whatever the reason is, he is always sick the first week of school. So later today I have to head out to the drug store to purchase all kinds of cold and flue products. This trip I won’t be searching for the best diet pills or anything like that. But I know it’s going to be an expensive trip. Oh well, school is once again in session and that means my youngest (especially him) will need all this medicine sooner rather than later.
Well as you all know, today is Friday. So that means the weekend is once again here.

So if I don’t see you all, have a great weekend and I’ll see you all again the first of next week.
After two and a half months I was finally able to enjoy a day to myself. This morning both the kids went back to school and let me tell you all I couldn’t be happier. Yes, I missed them today, but I sure didn’t miss the fighting. For the first time in two and a half months I was able to do some things for myself. I managed to put a dye in my hair and was even able to dig out my face wrinkle cream and sit with this application on my face for a while. It was nice to finally be able to do some small things just for me. I really think I’m going to enjoy this upcoming school year. I really do enjoy having all this time to myself and I think I can put up with the little fights when they get home from school a bit better after sitting back and relaxing all day.
Well it’s the final weekend before the kids go back to school and we have quite the weekend planned. The exhibition is in our area this week so we will be taking the kids to the exhibition tonight. They are really excited about this. All my son has been talking about is the bounce houses and my daughter has been talking non stop about seeing all the livestock and the horses. Then tomorrow we will be going out to get the rest of their supplies and on Sunday will be visiting my father in law and his wife. Then comes Monday. Then…. Tuesday and they are back to school!! YAY!! So if I’m not around much this weekend, now you all know why.
No, I’m not living in my car but I am seriously considering it. I think this will be the only way that I can get away from all the kid’s fighting. The last few days have been brutal and I’m pretty much at my ropes end with them. I really do think they enjoy fighting and I’m starting to wonder if they really like to hear me yap at them constantly?! But with only SIX, that’s right SIX days to go until they are back in school, I just may make it yet. But the car is out in the driveway as an option.
