Monday Whirl........

Wow… it has been really NUTS around here… The kids are back to school, both N and C. You would really think with 2 out of 3 kids back to school for the whole afternoon I would be able to get a ton done. Yep Not So Much! Mondays have to be the worst for sure too. The two boys both have school in the afternoons, N walks just down the street a block to school and C we have to wait for the bus to pick him up. So I have to get all 3 kids ready to walk N to school by 11:50, he starts at 12:05 but it always takes us forever to get out the door cause someone is always forgetting something. C’s bus is scheduled to come at 12:15 which if it came at that time would work out perfect, but it pretty much is early every day… So my mornings start out with a nice walk down to the school with a huge power walk back home to the bus waiting for us. The kids are gone till about 3 so I study during that time and get some of the stuff done that is so much easier to do with out 3 kids in tow. But it never seems like I have enough time to pull out that sewing machine like I would love to. Then we are off to Soccer as soon as C gets home and has a snack. Then form soccer we run and get something for dinner to rush home to have Nana watch the boys while I take a class at the local community college. Its pretty nuts around here… I swore I would have all the time in the world when the 2 older boys went to school, but it looks like its only going to get harder, and more stuffed with sports and everything else the boys happen to come into doing. But you know what its totally worth it all! I just feel bad for the parents that work outside the home; they have got to have it way more stressful than me running back and forth to schools. I know that some day the boys will be very thankful for my running back and forth from one school to another and activity to activity. It has only been 2 weeks of school so far so I am sure once I become a veteran at the school activity run I will once again be able to pull out that sewing machine and get some stuff made again… oh how I miss it all…
Well until then…..
