I'm Back!!!

Yes, it's me...your favorite daughter, sister and mother back after a 2 1/2 year hiatus!! Whew, that went by fast. Don't even know how to sum up that much time in a paragraph. To be honest, I kind of forgot about the whole blog thing until I started cleaning off my desk and found some entries that I had printed off. (That tells you how often I clean off my desk!!) It actually works out well because I never have to file any of my paperwork. I just throw it in a big pile and about every 2 years I go through it and shred everything except for the really important stuff and the last year of payments. It sure makes it hell if I have to find something though :) I dont know what I do with my time. It seems like I keep busy during the day with work, errands, kids and chores but in the evenings I never want to do anything but lay on my bed and read my book. I feel cheated if I ever get through a whole day and have not had time to read. I have started to write a little but only if I am in the mood which doesnt seem very often. I have always told myself that I should write a book but I cant seem to come up with a good thing to write about. You'd think I would have lots of ideas but my mind is always blank. I think thats why I like to read so much.... I can zone out and not have to think! The kids are all growing and doing well (mostly). I have to stay on Braxton and Weston to keep caught up in school but other than that we have no issues. Right now they are all playing basketball again and Garrett is even going to a basketball skills training class a couple times a week. Braxton and Weston are still playing guitar and poopy pants as we call him (Brody), is turning into a very sassy 4 year old. I used to scream and yell at him but he, just like the other boys, has stopped listening so my new plan is just to ignore them. I imagine that will go over just as well as yelling and probably get the same result without raising my blood pressure. Thanks Mom and Sue for still posting once in a while. I will try to do better.
