Catch Up

I have been so busy and haven't had a chance to sit and write anything for awhile.  To be honest, I feel guilty if I take the time to blog when there is a million things around the house to get done but here I am.  I needed to just stop and take this break.  It's nice sometimes.  I just put the kids on the bus and am sitting in front of the television while sipping on my first cup of coffee.  This is what I usually do in the morning before getting any housework done.  I love the peace and quiet.  Yes, that's Tweety in the background that matches my Tweety cup.  The kids were watching Looney Tunes before the bus came and I left it on.  Tweety is my favorite wittle character.  I have a huge Tweety collection, most of what has been given to me over the years by my husband. 

Fall is a busy time for us including school and a lot of the after school activities.  My son started playing trumpet and he loves it so far.  Every evening, except Thursday, is busy for us.  I don't mind being busy but I do make sure we have as much down time as possible.  With school, baseball, dance, and scouts I feel it's important that my kids get play time too.  Every day after school they come in, grab a snack and then go out the door to play with neighborhood friends until it's time for dinner and some evenings dinner has to be done early.  This is the last month of fall baseball and then he will have a break until spring. 

Working in the cafeteria is going okay.  I like that it gives me something to do during the day and I can make a little extra money to help with whatever is needed.  I have only been there for one month and am still learning but I'm getting the hang of it.  I really enjoy being around the children and the three hours are going fast.  Time is moving fast.  I can't believe it's October already.

Speaking of October, this weekend is my birthday.  I don't get as excited about birthdays as I used to.  I guess it comes with aging.  Maybe I'll write a birthday post next week.  I really do need to figure out more things to write about. 

Now it's time to get a few things done at home before heading to work.  It's Friday and there's a three day weekend!!!!
