Still Crazy busy..Work...School

Well, what a month it's been!!!! Not much scrapping going on but I did get away for a few hours at the monthly Library retreat with some fabulous ladies and looking forward to the next one when I can stay all day:) T...went back to CCHS, and my part time job is now going to full time!!! It's a good thing I love my job. C had a great birthday, I had a great anniversary and birthday, and we are off to a great October. I think I have a good routine down.

1. before bed lunches started
2. Espresso machine ready( a must)
3. Breakfast partially started(eggs blended, etc...)
4. up at 5:00 am
5. everyone ready
6. hot breakfast made
7. coffee!!!!!!
8. lunches packed
9. out the door by 7:00

as long as I stick to that schedule it is pretty much stress free. At work I feel like I'm racing the clock to get all my work done on time. However I would rather feel like that than be without anything to do. Trying to keep on a schedule but not let it rule my life.

We were asked by the in-laws to join that side of the fam for Christmas at the beach. I am such a tradition girl that I said no....but then said yes. I really felt a need to step out of my "tradition" shell and start to build memories. Added bonus....I'm taking my scrap stuff and plan to get lots done!!!!! Also plan to make some home-made gifts this year and stay on a tight tight budget.

The kids are loving being at school...parent night was comical. H left us a note that said "I know you would rather be watching T.V.".....A friend, whose son is in the same class, had a similar sentiment....but involved the computer..lol!!! C's was just as cute...we left them notes in return. And then since it was our anniversary we went to applebee's for apps. with the Brown's!!!

CRAZY BUSY!!!!!

Well just a quik post...so behind on this and so many things at the moment. Losts of changes again, but I just go with the flow(so cliche).

1. Started a new job at CCHS (it's part time but have been working full)
2. Owe (sorry) Gina her surprise and Janie some paper(sorry, sorry)
3. Need to set a firm Saturday with the girls for the scrap group
4. Need to breathe
5. the 2 Little's are back at school, no more home school for me right now
6. Heading to the beach for a long long weekend:)

Hope to update next week when we get back from the beach and work is only half day.

blessings.....

Cake T and I made for a Friends Party

There has been so much going on around here! We spent the entire day at the lake yesterday. When I say entire...I mean the entire day. We wanted to leave the house around 8:30 but ended up leaving around 9:15...spent the day docked in a no wake zone. I love to watch the kids on the toys, wake boards, etc...but I get rather anxious when other boaters are around my kids. It's much better for them and me to be docked in the sun somewhere else on the lake. We were joined by Jammie(my cousin) and her family as well as 2 other families. The guys took turns taking loads of people out to ski,tube, etc... Most of the girls and little kids just soaked up the sun where we were docked. Afterwards we went to the site where the 2 families were camping to BBQ hot dogs. We didn't even get home til after 10.

We have missed Miss T this week while she has been at camp.

I am starting a little scrapbook club with memory-works we are going to get together once a month to have a crop/workshop...if you are interested in joining or hearing more about it I can email it to you, you don't have to be a local girl to join.
