Crazy Busy

It's been crazy busy around these parts.

I totally skipped Five on Friday last week.  It will most likely be skipped again this Friday since I'll be out of town and I doubt I'll be awake enough when I get back to the hotel to do it.  We'll see.  If not, I'll be back next week.

School.  Keeps me busy.  But I'm loving it.  Especially when I get to go into the 4 year old preschool classroom and observe a little girl and the rest of her class.  So much fun!  I'm half way done with this semester.  This week is Fall Break, but I still have one big project to work on that's due at the beginning of next week.  In one class (the one with the big project due next week), the professor is really strict.  It's hard to keep up with all her specifics she demands.  My motivation for this class went out the window...about a month ago.  Six weeks left!  I can do this, really, I can.  My three other classes are great and I enjoy the readings and assignments.  It's fun learning about kids and especially the ages my kiddos are at.  Helps me plan for them too.

Baby shower.  I'm throwing my brother and his wife a baby shower for their little man, Jaxon.  I've been planning this event for the past month and in between school, house chores, being a mom...my time is maxed!  The kids and I leave on Wednesday and the party is on Saturday.  I'm sure it's not going to go as I'm hoping or imagining, but we will all be together and snuggling my newest nephew!  So excited!  I made the most adorable table decoration, can't wait to show you all next week!

I must admit.  I've gone a little cray cray.  Not even joking.  Poor kids probable think I lost my marbles most days.  They say the sweetest things to try to make me smile.  The other day Xander asked me if I was okay.  I said no, I'm sad.  Sterling jumped up and said 'I know' and started wiggling and saying 'wiggle wiggle wiggle'.  Cutest thing ever and totally turned my frown upside down.  

I tempted to take less classes next semester so I can have more free time to do things I like...like painting or sewing or reading.

I joined Golds Gym a few days ago.  Have I gone yet?  No.  Ugh!  I should have waited to sign up until after the baby shower.  When we get back on Monday, we're going when the next child watch hours are!  And I'm going every day until our vacation (except Sundays).

I've seen this image a little too often in my car.  I decided that it must be a slow leak or something because the cold temps wouldn't do this to one tire, and the same one tire, every 2 weeks.  So annoyed that my day tomorrow is ruined to get this taken care of.  I needed every minute of my tomorrow and now at least half of it is taken.  Yep, annoyed.  Let's hope I don't forget anything for the party and that my frazzled mind will stay focused.

Have a great week!
