Tuesday in August

Ok, today I went back to the gym after 2 months of being lazy, (been there 3 times in 2 months). It was good.

We got up this morning and rushed around only to get to school by 7:34. I said the kids, "we are too early lets sit in the car for a minute". Being early for school is appearantly way cooler than sitting in the mini van with mom at the front door. The kids hustled inside and said goodbye. It was nice to get an early start to the day I guess. I wonder what the temp is in Zambia today.

Off to do some housewifey work!

I have decided to start writing in the blog again. Maybe this time I can get serious and actually update it more than every other two years. This blog was originally about my 'biking" journey but it has taken a more personal turn.

Since I got the bike in 2009 I have put miles on it, I still love it, but i've found a new hobby. I started working out at the gym in February. It has done amazing things for me and my body. I have been slacking off since end of June and its time to go back. Wow I really like to eat in the summer!!

So Raven started Kindergarten this year so I'm alone in the day. I am a little lost and confused sometimes but I know God has a calling for me. Things with the photo business are really pulling together and with the help of good friends, it will be a growing business. This makes me more than excited! I haven't worked in a studio in about 7 years. The first day back it was like going to Disneyland, then I spent 5 hours on the computer editing!! LOL

monday 9-14

Weekend was good, the girls were very well behaved on Sat at the football party. Tom stayed home and we went up to burwell. Now we have a busy week, back to Monday Judo, Wed church, preschool tue/thurs. And getting ready for greeley irish festival this week!!! Oh and Salad & silver!!! There will be no housework this week, the house is going to be terrible by next monday. I can't wait till Sept is over!!

those girls are killing me... so full of love one minute.. slapping the hell out of me and kicking, spitting, pinching the next minute. Avery has a mouth on her like a teenager and there is no end in sight. She had a meltdown tonight saying she hates her life and all she wants to do is go out under a tree, lay on her blanket and read her bible!! Good idea anyway and it calmed her down. I have to find a place for the dog to stay for a couple years. Raven hits and kicks him so much he tries to bite her and I'm afraid he will catch her sometime. I feel like I've tried every kind of dicipline with her.. took away her silky today and her meltdown lasted about 2 minutes. At bedtime she asked for it and I reminded her I took it away for her naughty behavior. she said "oh" and rolled over!!!!!!!!!!
why can't I get this right?

I walked in the house with Nickelodeon still on the TV. I am alone here with no kids. I'm not sure if it will restore some sanity or cause more insanity. There is too much work to be done, and little to no energy to do it.

this blog is taking a new turn... I dont' have any new adventures on the bike.. Its the bike trail.. same everyday it never changes!! I don't have a bike rack to attach to the car or camper, I don't have time to bike that far away from home AND I'm getting bored of the same path!

so now I'm going to start recording the days events with my kids.. If I happen to find some interesting bike story I'll post it here!
