A week off of mom

 Well almost anyway. This week my kids went to camp! 6 full days. They are still gone in fact. They come home tomorrow at noon! I can't wait to see them. I was seeing and hearing mirage children at the grocery the other day... Thats how much I miss them!

 The first two days they were gone Tim and I had the day off. We went to Eureka springs. It was nice to drive by something and just STOP and go look just because, or to just TAKE OFF and go when we wanted to. We had lunch both days and it was delicious! We had a nice time together as husband and wife, instead of mom and dad.

 Of course Destiny was home, well the few nights she spends AT home she was here... OF course she tried to make up for the other kids being gone playing her teenager games she plays... We got over all that and last night spent some time together too, and it felt nice to just sit and chit chat with her. Looking at her talk, I could still see the "baby" she used to be in her now grown up face. Its crazy how fast they grow.

 So the kids get hom tomorrow and I cannot WAIT to hear about what all they got to do! I have seen pictures and it looks like all the kids had a BLAST! I cannot wait especially to hug and kiss my babies! 6 days was a LONG time without being able to even talk to them!

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

Done Growing

 Well soon enough it will be the start of a new school year. Sooner for my younger two, than for my older two. So today we went to get a few things that will be needed. Some shoes, socks and backpacks. Mommy needed a new pair of shoes too, I wear mine out pretty quickly being on my feet as a waitress.  So my son is about the pickiest shoe person out there. Nothing fits. We have to try on like every.single.shoe. in his size before he can choose. Its irritating and stressful. Hannah was pretty easy although she did not take the cheaper "on sale" pair I liked best. Either way she was quick and painless.  So then mom's turn. I put on a pair of 6.5 I wear those or 7's depending on the shoe. I wanted to try those new shoes with the curved bottom. Anyway... I get the 6.5 on and Hannah feels for my toes. "Oh you better get a size bigger" She says. "Those wont last the whole school year!" I told her I did not have to worry about outgrowing my shoes. My ...

8 years at the same job!

 I will say this about my work. No matter what is said, word gets around. Words also get twisted and changed, and rumors fly like well I don't know kites? I think co-workers are like a second family, not like to the point where you want to invite them over for Thanksgiving dinner... More like your around them enough that you are more than likely to have seen a bad side of them, and learned some annoyances. Chances are they were grumpy or depressed or pissed at some point and you have seen them at their worst. I think that makes it easier to get under each others skin and become annoyed. You get annoyed, you get over it, you move on. Your still co workers and you still get through. Like family, there are spats, you get over it move on and after it all your still family.  So do I always love my co workers or getting up early, or when someone is rude to me, or when I don't make any money... OF COURSE NOT. I have good days and I have bad days. Today it was raining, I would have ...
