TGIF!

Thank goodness it's Friday! I've had a crazy two weeks and this one was just nuts!

Last week while Phil was gone on his business trip I came down with a very nasty sore throat and thought I had pnuemonia, thankfully I didn't though. I however slept for a lot of the latter part of the week.

Company came down Saturday evening and stayed until Monday morning. Phil returned Sunday evening and visited as much as possible before returning to work Monday. I then had another relative come on Tuesday night and stay until Thursday morning. Now don't get me wrong but I'm glad everyone is gone but my immediate family! What a stressed week!!

Oh and did I mention I also had 3 extra children per day while this was all happening? Geez!

So this week I am feeling better and I will be very focused this weekend with my homework and mainly the last finishing touches of my paper. I am happy this term is over very soon, that much I do know!

Have a great weekend everyone.

Come on Sunday, please!

I am ready for Sunday to be here now, today, Wednesday! I do not like being here alone and I want my boyfriend back and things to return to normal. I've cried a majority of two day's and I don't enjoy a good cry.

So last week I thought my friend was coming this weekend but it turns out she couldn't get off work so instead, my cousin and her family are coming. That should keep my mind at bay at least for the latter part of Friday, all day Saturday and they'll leave out early Sunday.

My girl's began school today and my oldest seems to of enjoyed her day. Explaining how she couldn't wear the shorts she wore today ever again. My youngest will be picked up in a matter of minutes. She should keep me attentive for the next hour, I'm sure.

Only 3 weeks to go in class. I hope that I get a more firm understanding of what was needed of me as I bombed this last assignment. I am reading the books entirety at this point.

Can I please freeze time?

Time is moving entirely too fast for me at this point. School is flying by this term, so much so that I doubt myself sometimes because I wonder did I really just learn that or am I imagining this? Anyhow, the term is half over, yay!

I would like to ask Father Time to please make this next week Aug 17-22 go very quickly because I have a feeling I might have a melt down. My boyfriend will be gone for work that entire time AND all of my kid's are going to remind me how much they're growing up. I have a Sophmore (getting his license this year) a daughter going into Jr High and my baby is going into 1st grade! This is THE year that I am reminded that they aren't babies any longer and I am so sad about it.

I am going to attempt to read a book cover to cover for the first time EVER this week, just to keep myself distracted. I also will be painting some furniture and have my best friend coming Friday - Sunday.

We're beginning to wind down.

Summer's end is fast approaching, which means back to school shopping and that is always a dreaded area for me personally. This weekend is Missouri's tax-free weekend, so me and the girl's went today and bought our school item's. I will not do it next year with kid's until like 7PM when people hopefully are no longer out shopping. I did not have much fun to say the very least.

School is going well this term, it's going really quick now that I am half done with the MA program, thing's will hopefully be coming around soon and I can get back to work out in the real world again.

We're going on a mini-day vacation on Sunday to a smaller water park, so that should be a good time. Considering they've already (today) issued a heat advisory for Sunday, it'll be needed I'm sure.


Adventureland here we come in 29 days! Labor Day weekend....am I crazy?!?!?!?
