First Day of Preschool

Baby G started preschool today.  I guess I can't call him a baby anymore.   Sniff Sniff.  

I get a whole four hours to myself in the week.  I think I'll take a nap or read a good book.  Ha.  I wish.  That's not going to happen.  
Since G hates running errands my time is going to be spent doing just that.  Grocery shopping will take one day and the other day will be spent on basement and other miscellaneous errands.It's amazing how fast two hours can evaporate. 

Back to School

Another school year begins for an 8th grader, 5th grader, 3rd grader, and Kindergartener. They're outfits are picked out, backpacks are packed, hairs are cut...off they go.
They're getting taller and taller.  I'm not sure how the years keep flying by so quickly, but they do.

Trying to Hang on Until school Starts

My motivation is waning.  I'm so close to the finish line, less than two weeks to go, yet today I can't seem to pull out the last umph of energy to cross that line.  The "nestlings" have watched more TV/studio C in the last two days than I care to admit.  The nest is a mess and I'm in a funk, a lack of motivation funk. 
What's my problem?  Do you ever not want to come up with one more meal and then make it?  It feels like I just clean up from breakfast when it's lunch time already.  Not again!  And the laundry and sticky floors are really getting to me. I know I have to finish the marathon that is summer.  I just I have to find a way to get my groove back.  I think something chocolate is in order and definitely some cleaning.
