I wouldn’t have complained if Amy wanted to sleep in a bit today but she is packed with energy. If I even try lying on the couch I am jumped on and a little finger pokes my eyelid open. “Eye? Eye?” Sarah fell asleep around 2 and I got to sleep about 3. The 6 […]

Well we’re home at 1 in the morning and it’ll only take me three hours to get to sleep. Of course I have to be up in 5 so it’s kinda pointless. Sarah hada very ngrown toenail that she didn’t tell me about and she ended up having some minor surgery on the toe to […]

I’m not having enough fun this week so I think I’ll make a run to the emergency room for a minor childhood malady. More blog details when I get back after midnight.

Almost time to load up everyone and head out for afternoon chaos. I can’t remember the last time I didn’t have to leave the house. I am really tired of all the running around. The children are tired of it too. “Where do we HAVE to go today?”

From 7 a.m. until 9 p.m. the phone doesn’t go more than an hour without a bill collector calling. Even if I answer and talk to them they still keep calling and telling me I “have” to give them a check over the phone. Leave me alone! I’d give you some money if I had […]

Sorry Doug, but “I can’t remember if I slept with her” just doesn’t sound right. Amy woke up at 3 in the morning and didn’t get back to sleep until 4. I think the storms were bothering her. I love to sleep during storms. The noise is very sleep and dream inducing. This morning the […]

It’s very lonely without Doug here. I know that’s hard to believe because there are lots of little people here, but it’s not the same. I stare at my computer screen hoping for e-mail to answer. I read blogs, looking for something to comment on and I eagerly await the IM beep from Doug. Now […]

Conversation in the car. Noah – “Sarah I’m gonna marry Mommy and you can marry Tommy.” Sarah – “It’s against the law to marry your own family.” Noah – “Why can’t I marry you Mommy?” Mommy – “Umm, what should we have for dinner?”

All of the children are home now. Sarah has homework but is too busy goofing off to get it done. Noah got in trouble for talking but didn’t lose any tickets (behavior system in his class). Tommy slept all morning at school so his afternoon was calm and uneventful. Amy is her jolly old self. […]

Doug is having dinner with an old girlfriend tonight. I’m taking four children to the pharmacy and soccer practice.
