Who would have thought that life would be more crazy here at home than when I was in Oklahoma helping get a wedding together and then caring for four boys 5 and under?
Not me that's for sure!
But instead of coming home and going back to my normal everyday schedule with the boys I have been running around like a chicken with it's head cut off!
First trying to get life caught up from being gone for two weeks. Getting new phones that actually work, trying to get things unpacked (there is still plenty in the car), making a plan for the busy week ahead and then contacting everyone that I had said "let's talk when I get back." I think I will never use that phrase again!
Then Monday was helpful wife day which I love doing but I was really planning on spending the day getting unpacked and caught up on housework. When the hubby's home and we're gone the house needs some attention. But instead I loaded up the kids and drove around town for 3 hours taking pictures because the hubs just couldn't find time to get it done. Helpful wife days occur more now that we own our own business. I'm really looking forward to the day we can hire someone.
On top of all that I spent the day today at my nephews school getting ready for summer with Aunt Kari! Yes doesn't it sounds like fun? One of the teachers said "Oh you're the mean aunt he's spending the summer with" when she introduced herself. She was teasing but now I know what ny nephew thinks of me. One day he'll be thankful and that's all that matters to me.
And the rest of the week just keeps going! I have to be up and out of the house tomorrow by 6am so I can be on time to a volunteer event, Thursday is library day and we have to go because we have books due back, and then Friday is our homeschool group meeting where we are to share our homeschool goals that I have yet to even think about. Oh, did I mention I'm the leader on Friday?
And yes in case you're wondering my weekend is packed full as well. And so is next week. And come to think of it my summer is booked solid with activities for Monkey and my nephew not including the school work we have to get accomplished.
We will need prayers in our family for strength and quality rest. Oh and wisdom for me.
