I've been busy. Helping a friend with renovations, working on my own house. And so there has been very little time to blog. That and I've just not felt a need to.
Today however I've been thinking. I know, I know, scary isn't it? Well, too bad for all of you reading this, my thoughts are spilling out onto my keyboard. :)
There has been so much going on that sometimes I forget to take time for me. Yesterday was proof I need to slow down and relax once in a while. You see, yesterday I left work at noon with a killer headache which turned out was a migraine. Ya, two Advil, two Tylenol and a two hour nap and well, I could function.
While I was resting I was running my lists. You know the ones, where you mentally review everything you have to do, all your wish list items too. Ya, I'm crazy, migraine and all I can't shut off.
One thing on my list was to get back to blogging. It's a form of therapy for me and considering the chaos my life is right now Lord knows I need it. With the kids back in school, both in high school and my son back in Cadets the routine is back on. It's as much a struggle for me to get back into the swing of things as it is for them. No more sleeping in until 7:20am for me, it's UP! at 6:00am and if I dare sleep past that time I'm screwed!
The nice thing I'm finding this year is that my son is loving high school! I admit I was a bit concerned this would be tough for him but he seems to be adjusting well. He has one class with his best friend and they go to movie club at lunch together so it's not like he's totally on his own, he's not. He's even enjoying his classes, well most of them. Food and Nutrition is boring at the moment but that's because they haven't started cooking. That should change next week.
My daughter even commented this year seems better. Probably because this year she's knows what to expect from her IB classes. She's a little more relaxed about it. One year older I guess. She's working too, she landed a job at the end of school and has worked all summer mostly Saturday's some Sunday's and the odd Monday at Booster Juice in the mall. She's so happy to have her own money. She'll be able to keep this job all through school too as she does only work weekends. The owner seems to keep his staff for a long time.
As for me, well, no rest for the wicked I guess! I did manage to take some time this summer but just a day or two here and there. My little dog had puppies in May so the summer was busy with them right up until they were all sold. Ok, there was only four and they sold quickly once I lowered the price. I've heard from two of the new owners and they are loving their new fur babies so yeah! They even send me pictures.
I've got some interest brewing for the next litter so that should be a little less stressful when the time comes, sometime next year I assume. Phoebe is an awesome mom, and she bounces right back after a few weeks of giving birth so I think maybe a few more litters then I'll retire her.
So that's my update for now, I'm hoping to get to this a little more often but don't hold your breath more often at this point could mean weeks!
That's, how I see it,
Tammy.
