It is our long weekend so we have today off too. I have mixed feelings about it. The kids (mostly char) were out of control yesterday so I'd actually enjoy sending them to daycare today. I'm not sure what we will do

we considered the wildlife park but Jo has major animal issues and I'm scared introducing her to new animals will just make it worse.

Hey Sonya!

This week Jake has to get a filling on Wednesday cry

Plus this is the week (Friday afternoon) for the "big move" at daycare so he will be leaving the teacher he has had for 2+ years and moving to the Kindergarten room.  I feel sad for him but I don't think it will even hit him until next week when he is fulltime in the new class with a new teacher.   His teacher now has a big, fun week planned for the kids (she's losing 5 I think that she's had 2+ years).

Ms. Kate will not be moving yet, probably later this summer when she turns 3.  In other news, she has been agreeing to sit on the big potty at daycare which is huge b/c she's been so scared of falling off of it.

I work today and have a LOT of loose ends to wrap up, and then I took the rest of the week off...well except a lunch meeting on Thursday that somehow snuck in there.

I will be packing for our month at camp and super deep cleaning our apartment.

The boys wrap up may term at school on Friday.  My goal for now is to pick them up from preK and drive straight to the farm.  We'll see if that works out :)

sonya - I know what you mean about kids being out of control!  I have been on the verge of losing it here for a very long time.   My kids are running this show and I am just worn out.

We haven't had internet at home for 2 weeks.  Tensions are high!  We cannot run a business here without internet!  It's not 1982 anymore!

I escaped yesterday for most of the day and got my internet on in McDonald's parking lot and later over lunch at Panera.  It's ridiculous.  We are connected now but I think it's through dial up (DH has phone line running to computer but it's running a bit fast for dial up so I don't know what's going on and am too scared to lose my connection to mess with it!).

Kris, i know how hard it is to see them move up. I can't handle thinking about it really. I love Charlie's teachers right now. He's been there for a year now. At least he'll be dropped off there in the morning when he starts school and they will walk them up.

I don't know what we are going to do today.

My monkeys are out of control already so I need to decide if we just stay home or if we go have fun somewhere.

Nothing, which I sort of assume to be no, but at the same time it could signal that negotiations with another candidate are not going well and Travis might still get an offer.  I'm moving forward like it is a no and planning on being here next year, but there is still that outside chance.

Gm... For me this week:

1. Meet work deadline, which means insane amounts of working.
2. Get my hair did.
3. Shop for bridal shower food.
4. Take my niece and nephews to several games since my sister is out of town.
5. Spend Thursday and Friday scrubbing down my sister's house since it's trashed because she's gone and the kids won't keep up on their chores, and she gets back the night before I'm having a party at her house.
6. Hosting a bridal shower for my niece on Saturday
7. Buying food for said shower.
8. Getting decorations ready.
9. Wrapping gifts.
10. Prepping games.
11. Cooking 100 cupcakes...

I'll just stop there, lmao. My week is crazy, and I have no idea how I'm going to get anything that needs done done. I should probably start by getting off the darn computer.

We're on our way to the store to get sunscreen and floaties, then we're off to our friends' pool!

Tomorrow we're going to play at Kimberly's house in the afternoon. The kids haven't been there in ages so they're excited.

Wednesday I *think* I'm going to lunch with a friend but we never verified our plans, and I'd need to get a babysitter.

That's as far as my plans have gone.

Morning!

I just got up. Lucas is home on Mondays which means my house is TRASHED and he has eaten everything he could get his on. (I was asleep right on the couch in the room he was trashing so it's not like I was letting him run rampant, I just didn't care)

I have a bunch of stuff to do today.

~pick up vitamins
~two banks
~Walmart
~return my rental car
~laundry

There's more but I just can't think of it at the moment
