Messing with Me

Today is December 17th?

How in the world is it DECEMBER 17th?!

Someone must be messing with my calendars because there is no way it is December 17th.

What? No one is messing with me?

It is actually December 17th! Well then that means I'm running behind. WAY behind. Look at my to do list.

Hey, wait a minute all of that stuff is done. Today was the last day of school/work. I'm done! birthday treats check, school gifts check, and all of the above check. Believe me I have the hour and half of video to prove it.

Want to watch?

So with all that stuff done that means I get to kick back and relax.

Except! There is only 8 days left until Christmas. Two days until number one's 14th Birthday (Holy COW!) 3 days until number two's 12th Birthday (Freak!) and 11 days until number four's 8th Birthday (Sob!) and 14 days until number four's baptism (sob, sob, sob).

So really the things on the to do list left to do is longer than what has been done. MAN!!! Are you sure it is the 17th?

Fine! I believe you.

I guess I should give you warning that this coming week I have decided to break the rules and post all about my wonderful life. Okay, not so much my wonderful life but the wonderful kids I have been so blessed to raise. So if your not into the whole gushing, my kids are the best in the whole wide world, thing you might not want to read my blog.

However, I don't brag to much or at least I try not to and this coming week as part of our birthday celebrating I have decided to brag, brag, brag. Because no matter how stressed that I am that it is already December 17th!! they make all the stress totally worth it.

Happy Holidays

I brag and I complain because I blog for me. I don't care who else reads it.

At my Age

I saw this quote the other day and had to smile. It has been interesting finishing school at my age. I have had this feeling more than once that I am a little old, and finishing school is something I should have done a long time ago. Usually I remind myself that we all have our own paths to take in life. My path had me marry at 19 and become the mother of four beautiful rug rats by 27. Marriage and children defined me more than anything. I became more aware of my talents and abilities. I really didn't know who I was before I became a wife and mother. Waiting until now to finish my degree gave me time to figure out who I am. Well, at least to have a better idea of who I am. I love being in a classroom, I love learning, and I love helping others learn. My inner nerd does little happy dances every time I learn something new. Each person on this planet has their own God given talents. We have a responsibility to find our talents and to make the world a better place. How old you are wh...

Stepping Up to the Plate

This is going to be one of those braggy, braggy post just thought I would warn you. Life has gotten to the point that it is completely out of control. I’m not really sure what we were thinking when we had four children in the span of six years. I also don’t know why I thought it was difficult when they were small because life now is, as I said, completely out of control. Everyone is at the age that they are involved or doing something. Our nights have become logistic nightmares. Pick up here, drop off here, go here, and stop here. It is craziness. Added to this insanity is the fact that we are currently a one-vehicle family. A couple of months ago as I was signing Al. up for basketball I was desperately trying to talk H. out of playing basketball. He has only wanted to play since he was four and every year he would remind me how many more years until he could play. Why, oh Why did I not say he had to be 16? Eventually, I gave in and signed him up knowing it was going to be tough to fit...

Registered! What Have I done?

I'm just home from the gym. My legs are shaky, my shirt is sweaty, and my muscles are loose. Saturday, I biked almost 30 miles on a hill before getting off the hill and finishing up at 35 miles. This morning I went for a nice 70 minute jog. (Legs are not HAPPY!) Last night before going to bed I registered for "Little Red." Paid my non-refundable registration fee. Needless to say I'm what you would called, "FREAKED!" Holy Cow what have I gotten myself into, a 100 mile bike ride.  Do you know that this ride will actually take me out of one state into another and back. Does that sound insane? Who gets up and says hey lets ride our bikes to that state over there and back? I think I have officially lost my mind. How does one know for sure if they have lost there mind? Short of registering for a 100 mile bike ride. Do you know people do these all the time? They do them for fun! Maybe that is the definition of insane. Well what is done is done and I have 16 weeks...
