busy busy

I have some photos n things I would like to put up here, but seriously, time is in short supply around here at the moment. I am a little bit stressed (well, when am I *not*) and it is showing in a lot of ways.

I wonder what my kids are going to remember of their childhood, sometimes.

Right now we have school 5 days/wk and soccer 4 nights/wk plus weekend games (and church.) Next week Roks starts at the farm program one day a week, and the following week, we add two mornings a week with swimming lessons and gym at the YMCA. Well, that is in addition to just the general busyness of having life with jr. high-age kids and little kids and toddlers and babies. It is just pretty much chaos around here.

My dieting has been a failure, if you didn't notice the ticker. I quit Weight Watchers because I was feeling guilty about spending money on LOSING WEIGHT when there are babies starving in the world. That, and I was just not doing it. Counting points and denying my sugar cravings when I am tired and all that.

I don't know how people avoid eating when they are stressed, and how they ignore the call of coffee and chocolate and lots of cups of tea. I have to be pretty emotionally stable to be able to pull that off, and right now...that isn't happening.

Not to complain, I know this is the good life, I am just letting you know why I haven't been around too much.

I am guessing after reading your schedule that you either are sleeping before your head hits the pillow or you lie there working out the next day in your head. Been there! I applaud you for all your endevors! You are a great person inside and out and your kids WILL remember their childhood! Because you are a caring Mom!

I thought I'd look you up again since it had been a LONG while....and of course...it makes me miss you guys. You're so fab - we should have got together way more than we did, when we lived close by. Hope you are well and a little less busier. Although I'm not feeling so hopeful since it's been so long since you blogged..... lol Take care Moey!
