Excuse Me, I Seem to Have Lost My Mind!
I am not gone, just insane. I can’t seem to get any writing time. This is just my attempt to apologize for being absent, and get some sympathy for my crazy week.
Monday: Worked, came home and sewed until midnight. My daughter is going to a school dance. The theme is dynamic duo so they decided to go as Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. Cute, right? NO!!! Sewing satin and organza SUCKS!!
Tuesday: Up at 5:45 to finish the fairy wings, Work, home for 30 minutes before leaving to have dinner with Husband and attend a two hour professional meeting with him about “Changing Deer and Elk Populations in the Region.” YAWN.
Wednesday: Work, haircut, grocery shopping for the weekend, finish final details on costume.
Thursday: Work, drinks with friends from work to celebrate a birthday, Husband picks me up to make it to daughters theater showcase at school, help daughter quick change for dance, out to meet friends for a late dinner.
Friday: Up early, laundry, clean house, pack to go pick up 13 High schoolers and drive 3 hours to take them to a play, finally checking into hotel at 10ish.
Saturday: Up by 6, rally kids, spend the day sitting and waiting at a District Drama Competition, finally loading and driving back home, arriving between 10 and 11 pm.
Sunday: Up, cook, prepare for the Annual Super Bowl Party for about 25 people.
Monday: Back to work and a new week.
OMG!!! Not sure I am going to make it. I NEED a drink and they won’t allow it while chaperoning teenagers. Go Figure. 🙂
well that is when you NEED a drink lol — Monday is a sick day. 😉

Oh, my dear, I’m exhausted just reading this! If I could I’d help. Perhaps you need a “sick day” from work? You are clearly supermom and should probably have a cape.
I hope you find some time to sneak a drink – no no, that would be wrong – ignore my evil ways – um… time to write. And time to relax.
Some days I hate that I feel like I have no time to write — especially since I’m unemployed! That’s nuts. I have no idea how I’m going to deal with the writing withdrawal when (God, if) I find a job. I’m going to need some sort of rehab counseling.
If it makes you feel any better, while you’re running around like superwoman, you’ll be missed. 🙂

You are just too sweet! I am NOT supermom, just mom. I would do absolutely anything for my kids. They are the two best things I ever did my entire life. 🙂
I do LOVE your evil ways. No drinking with kids, but as soon as I dump them off…Yeah Baby! 🙂
I hope to have time Saturday to write. I have hours to wait while they are competing, so I am going to take my laptop and hopefully find a quiet corner to write. We will see. 🙂

Yes, no rest for the wicked, and damned little for the righteous….. 🙂 The good new is, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel, and I swear it is not an oncoming train. You are an amazingly dedicated friend, coworker and hostess, and most importantly, an even more incredible mom and loving spouse. You honor us all with your willingness to go a little crazy for the comfort and convenience of everyone else. The good news is, if I have one thing to say about it, you WILL get a chance to put your feet up, and you WILL get to pour that drink. And no more deer and elk meetings. The next seminar I signed up for is titled “Ropes, Chains, Knots, and Shackles”. Perhaps this one will be a little more captivating 😉
