Random Busyness

Things are moving so rapidly here, it seems like I have little time to breathe, let alone write a blog post. No kidding, I have been to 5 doctors' appointments with various people in the last 7 days as well as one visit to the urgent care for Curly that we squeezed in between his football game and a party for one of his football friends. The doc finally decided to put him on a z-pack and they quit blaming his cough and fatigue on asthma although we did come home with two different inhalers...

As I already mentioned, we had a birthday party on Sunday for Crafty, Princess, and Calder as well as our opening of the time capsule.

On Monday, Drama Queen and I picked and canned 34 quarts of peaches from my sister's peach tree (thanks, Sis!). I visited with all of Sport's and all of Scout's teachers at parent teacher conferences on Wednesday and I ran volleyball practice on Tuesday night and 3 hours of games on Thursday night. Curly had football practice on 3 different nights and I helped Bossy prepare to serve food to her two football teams for their pep rally on Friday night.

Millions of peaches... peaches for me...

I carpooled for volleyball practice with Scout and her friend and then I spent Friday evening (after helping Bossy) watching her play. She really is amazing! I wish I could serve like that... After her games, my sweetie took me out for a long overdue date.

On Wednesday, we got Beauty and The Beast and their boys and dogs all moved in after several hours of deep cleaning the Little Apartment so they could stay there for a couple of weeks. I drove to dance for drop offs and pick ups on 4 different days with Baby Doll, as well as a birthday party for her friend.

I attended a parent meeting with Scout for MathCounts and I helped with homework. My babysitting duties included a couple of hours with Princess's boys while she and Crafty went to lunch for their birthdays, all day Friday with Beauty and The Beast's boys so they didn't have to run them all the way to Herriman for daycare, and I had Twizlet for 4 different days. Teach says she is ready to have that baby this weekend! We will see how far positive thinking takes her...

Twizlet practices planking with Scout - both of them want to be stronger.

I'm also still dealing with a broken fridge. I think I told you we finally ordered a new one, but it won't be here until the 23rd of October. I managed one quick trip to the temple and a bunch of time requesting and redoing the temple names after Bossy released a bunch of them into the temple system.

Add to all that, errands and trips to the store, laundry, getting my haircut, and cleaning up after Sport made 96 cupcakes for his Cupcake Club Opening Social. Thank goodness Crafty has taken over most of the cooking around here leaving me a brief window to help her get ready for her mission.

And sometimes everything is "peachy!"

Some days I wonder if I'm a little crazy and other days I know I am. Do things ever get any easier?
