AIGH!
I’m SICK! The annual bronchitis. I wanted to spend the weekend getting things done, but I can’t breathe. So I’m puttering. Resting. Puttering. Resting. I’m not getting a lot done, but I suppose it’s better than nothing. It hit on Thursday night, and I dragged myself through work yesterday. I went to the store this […]
About My Mom
A comment was left on my last post that maybe my mom was a bit out of line … she’s not, and I want to explain why. As a single mom, I rely a LOT on my mother for child care and other things. She keeps my boys from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. every […]
Miserable
I just can’t get a handle on things. There’s so darn much to do, and I just cannot get caught up, much less get ahead. The phone rang tonight, and I answered it without looking at the caller ID, thinking it was my friend who called today in tears to tell me that her husband […]
Finally Getting Back to Normal
Basketball practise starts tomorrow, but that’s the only schedule-interrupting thing going on from now until after the new year. I”m done with tests, done with the writing job (we just couldn’t get my schedule to mesh with their needs, so they let me go), done with everything extra. Time to get the house in order […]
BEHIND!
I hate feeling like I’m so far behind I’ll never get caught up, but that’s where I am right now. Absolutely exhausted, overwhelmed, and getting close to hopeless that I’ll ever get out of it. I’ve got a certification exam in three weeks, and I just HAVE to study for it. I NEED to fold […]
Looking Forward to the Weekend
Yeah, and it’s only Monday. What can I say? It’s just that I finally start making headway on getting the house in order on weekends, only to have to stop and go to my job on Monday — the job that keeps that roof over my head. By the time the weekend rolls around again, […]
Tough Month!
This has been a busy time at work, which is why my Blogit earnings are going to stink this month. I’m juggling work, home-schooling, church, children’s choir, Broadway, handbells, freelance writing, and home. WAY too much! So my blogging has suffered, which means that, at last check, I’m due to earn $1.50 this month. LOL! […]
Bunk Beds….
The kids like their new bunks, except for a couple of minor things. The older one has to dodge the ceiling fan to get into his bed on the top bunk. When the fans were installed in this house (way before we moved in), they were installed smack-dab in the middle of the ceiling. The […]
The Kids Got Their Wish!
We finally put their beds together as bunk beds today. I’ve been trying to do that since something like May! But X lost the pins that secure the beds together somewhere up in the insulation of the attic when he started the (still unfinished) attic-decking project. And the beds are “This End Up!” furniture, which […]
Working My Tailfeathers Off
The last week or so has been incredibly busy. Work was so busy and tense last Thursday that I went home and just cried from tiredness and tension. There was just too much to do, and too little time to do it. However, I worked hard and got a lot done, even though it wasn’t […]
