I haven't forgotten!!!

I know I keep promising to post pictures from our trip to Greece and Croatia. I haven't forgotten, I PROMISE! My internet has been slow lately and frankly I don't have the patience nor time to wait for pictures to upload.

I hope to one day post the pictures of our trip because it was amazing. We have booked a cruise for next summer :)

Abandoned Blogged?

I promise I haven't given up on blogging. Things just have been extremely busy here in our household so rest and relaxation is a precious thing these days.

What's keeping us so busy?

The football season has offically kicked off for the "Z" man and soccer for Syd starts Monday. Paul has taken on assistant coaching duties this year for the "Z" man's team and Paul and I are both extremely busy at work right now. My office finally made the move to their new location but now we are extremely short staffed. We have a TON of new medical providers getting ready to come on board so I have been working long hours to keep my head above water. School kicked off this week for the kids and for me as well. I am taking a full course load of four classes this semester but on the bright side it is my last semester and I will graduate in December. I don't think there is a night during the week we don't get home before 7:30pm so trying to make a well balanced meal has been an accomplishment to say the least if it even does happen.

In addition to everything going on we have grown from a family of four to a family of five for the next several weeks. We have a little boy who is staying with us while his Mom is TDY in the states. Needless to say it has kept life interesting. Him and Syd do NOT get along at all so constant refereeing has been a part of my evening life after work.

So NO, I have not given up on blogging I'm just extremely busy these days.

Does Anyone Still Live here?

Barely!!

I have spent the past 7 weeks living out of a suitcase and I am SICK of it!! The good news is it looks like it may come to an end at least until October. Our office is suppose to finally move but it's looking more and more like instead of next week it is going to be the week after next.

This weekend is the first weekend I have been home since June. Usually I am home long enough to grab Paul and a few clean clothes and then we are off to some fun place for the weekend. Here I am home but no Paul :( He is enjoying the sun in Florida right now. Banjo is even gone for the weekend! He got another extended stay at the puppy motel because of traveling with my job. What's the point of picking him up on Friday only to drop him off again Sunday?

What do I plan to do? The kids will be home soon so I need to make their beds, grocery shop so there is some food in the house and maybe even trying cleaning the house.

I can NOT wait to be living back at home again!!!
