I know....smack my hand....I have not been very good at keeping up with this blog this summer! I truly had good intentions, and heaven knows I need the therapy it provides in my life, but I have just been so busy. No one told me that being an activity director for an almost six year old was gonna be so exhausting! But the countdown is on for the start of school, so I am truly soaking in all the fun and festivities we can find.
This past week my child and I joined three other MOOGs (that would be Moms Of Only Girls!) at the beach...in a one room condo...and did I mention the kiddos were ALL girls and ALL five and a half years old????? Oh my goodness!! It was an interesting trip - full of fun, tears, laughter, fits of rage, stomping feet and pouting lips...and that was just us moms!! Seriously though, the adults had a great time...the little girls..well, they adjusted...and eventually learned to fight it out amongst themselves and share and pick up their toys...of course this was all on the last morning as we were packing up - but all in all - I think the thought of a trip next year to try it again doesn't really scare any of us too much!
Because my blogging tool is worn out and exhausted and having trouble forming complete sentences I am just going to leave you with a few random thoughts that are rattling in the brain... I hope to be back here again soon, please don't give up on me!!
Random Thoughts...
- my mattress is just about dead -- so I have bought a memory foam topper for it, here is hoping tomorrow morning I do not wake up with a broken back like I did this morning.
- I made homemade banana pudding (with the meringue and EVERYTHING!) and I must say...it was scrumptious - I am never going back to the fake kind!
- forgetting to make a hair appointment at the regular 8 week mark was a huge mistake. I am praying my hair guy will make room for me in his world sometime this week....aghhhh
- my dining room is still not painted, this is causing me sorrow!
- we asked my husband last night for the 100th time if my sweet girl could get a kitten...and for the first time ever -- he didn't say NO!! Didn't say YES, either, but I am gonna claim it as a chink in his anti-feline armour!
-my new office at work is painted purple -- I can't wait to decorate it - although I really don't want to have to have the summer end to do it!
- I have decided I am pretty much cooking everything in the crock pot from now on...so far this summer I have mastered Meatloaf, Hamburger Steak and ten gazillion types of chicken... I think this is a doable resolution!
-And finally....if someone could please point me in the direction of the person who invented Little Pet Shop Pets...I would gladly kiss them. They have made my summer so much more bearable!
Living Happily in the Moment!
