It’s a Monday!!!!! This means alarm set for 5am. Wake up and start that coffee brewing. Lunches made for kids. Lunch made for me. Try to make sure each lunch has some sort of healthy item. For the youngest, this means fruit. Easy peasy. For me this means fruit and Noosa— has anyone tried Noosa?! Oh my- you have to! It is so good and has lots of good things in it for your tummy! For my older son, this means I pretend that the carb loaded lunch I send him with is somewhat healthy- even if just for the fact that he’s eating. Listen to the news, find out what the weather will be like. Try to figure out what the loud boom was last night that had my little town in an uproar on the community Facebook pages. Try to resolve an argument with the Hubster, that will inevitably never be resolved and will infuriate me for longer than eternity. Think about taking a shower, but really don’t want to quite yet. Time to get the Dynamic Destructive Duo up. Who will be in a good mood this morning- that’s always a crap shoot. Break up the inevitable fight between two children who make up things to fight up- current fight “Don’t look at me!”

Head in to work… why oh why must I work?! I actually like my job. I like the people I work with. I like how busy I am when I am there. I just despise the commute. The commute makes it feel like I spend all day doing nothing but work. Leave by 7am, get home by 5:15pm.

Did I mention that I started birthday party planning for the Dynamic Destructive Duo?! We always do a joint birthday. This year I invited each of their entire classes, plus some. That has the potential to be over 50 kids. Please oh please may some people decline. Thinking about activities to do with 50 kids— water balloon fight!!!!! This time I got smart and bought that thing that would fill 100 water balloons at once. I hope this works! I really hope this works! Do you know how it feels to tie over 100 individual water balloons? I do and it’s not pleasant.
