Sorry I haven't been here much lately...

[Beanie]

but I have been so super busy! Aside from going to the beach last week, I am so busy with Andrew's end of the year school stuff going on and working every day before we leave for vacation that I am not sure if I am coming or going lately! LOL I am working every day this week and have Sunday off, then I work next week Mon and Tues...have Wed and thursday off, but will be at school and then work Fri and Sat...We leave that Sunday! Phew...I am exhausted already!!

Hopefully when I get back from vacation, I can take a break from work...the only reason I am working so much is because one of the girls left, so I have to pick up the slack...I don't mind so much since the money is good, but I can't continue this pace much longer! LOL

On a happier note, I am really looking forward to our meet!! My kids keep looking at the Hershey website each day and all the rides!! We should have a fun time!!

Hope you all have a great Memorial Day!! I am off to work once again!!

I can totally relate Beanie! It's all I can do to get my RPs done each day. Only 8 more days of school and then I'll be back in the groove!

It's hard when working full time with a family. At least there is an end in site and quite a reward. WDW in two weeks (or less). Plus the Hersey Meet.

I was just offered a 12 week job in the fall to cover a maternity leave at school and I am already feeling overwhelmed. Can't imagine what it will feel like once I start doing it.

I don't work outside the home and I can't imagine working somewhere else even 20 hours a week.

This weekend was spent refinishing cabinets and prepairing the counter tops for granite tile. (I'm soooo excited about the end result. Although right now I'm very tired!)

We didn't get to go to DL this May because DH is still trying to catch up from our February trip to WDW. But I have something to look forward to in September. We are going back to WDW!!!!!!

I think we are going to do Sing for Joy! Woo hoo!

I hope everyone had a great holiday!

I can relate to you Beanie. My kids are now out of school. May 27th was their last day. My mother-in-law has always watched them through the summer while I work but she is on the verge of Ahlheimers(seriously). Making sure she remembers to show up at my house has been a challenge. My sewer backed up into our basement last Wed. Just 2 months before they fixed it for $3500. Dealing with them coming out trying to figure out what went wrong has been a nightmare! I can't do laundry without stopping the machine about 4 times throughout the cycle to keep it from flooding. Help! Then my car broke down on Thursday. Luckily, it was only a dead battery! We also go up to the Indy 500 every year. After all this craziness I couldn't wait to just go have some fun. Oh, it was fun alright! It poured down rain! Once they finally got the track dried and started they race, the sky really never cleared up. I always listen to the race on the radio while we are watching it and my husband listens to the scanner. During the race they interupted the radio broadcast to announce a tornado had touched down about 80 miles southwest of the track. And it was heading northeast. I told my husband and he instantly turned on the weather channel on the scanner. He confirmed it too. The race then went under yellow because it was beginning to rain again at the track and the sky was looking evil. My husband and I decided to take the kids and get out of there. We knew we had at least a mile walk to the car and traffic gets horrible. We didn't want to be stuck in traffic with a funnel cloud heading our way. So we hit the road. On the way home we listened to the race on the radio. They were able to dry the track and no tornadoes went that way. Now I just found out they plan to redig our sewer line this Wed. at no charge to us. We are doing our single digit dance now for WDW Can't wait to get outta town!
