Ahhh... school has started!   The kids all have the teacher they were hoping for and we are slowly getting back on schedule.  These past 3 weeks have been busier than usual!  I have wanted to come here and share the intimate details of my life with you, but I've had so much going on  that every night I just plop down in bed, pick up the Kindle and read about -  oh - 1 paragraph before I'm out.  It has taken me 2 months to read ONE book...and I'm still not finished!  I'm at 92%!  Maybe I will finish it tonight - only time will tell.

What has been keeping me so busy you ask?

~  Kids being home for the summer
~  Board games
~  Cooking with the kids
~  More meetings than I cared to go to
~  Attending neighborhood events - snow cone day & pool party
~  More cooking – tried my hand at making Pho.  I will not post that recipe until it is perfected.  It was OK, but not great.
~  Camp Better America – Helped plan for and then spent 5 days volunteering at camp (with Boy 1!)
~  Hangin’ out with Randy Travis (Yeah, you read that right!)
~  Picked my mom up the day camp ended and brought her back to stay with me for a week
~  Attended a memorial service for someone this world lost too early
~  Organized and attended Battalion Round Rock Express Game
~  Tried keeping my flowers and yard alive in this 100+ degree weather that has pounded Central Texas for over 60 days (I'm starting to fail!)
~  Sent multiple packages to Afghanistan
~  Ordered, sorted and shipped ‘Walk to Afghanistan’ t-shirts
~  High school '2 a days'
~ Multiple doctors’  appointments
~  Necessary wine or whine parties on the porch
~  Battalion back to school bash
~  School shopping
~  Continued with decluttering adventure
~  Our 2nd Annual Water Balloon and Popsicle back to school bash
~  Back to school
~  Back to the gym

And these are only the things I can remember! 

I hope to catch up on this blog over the next few days - you know - in between meetings, writing thank you notes (I only have about 30 to write), catching up on email, going to football games.....I could go on, but you get the idea.

I love my crazy life.  ♥

At last! I know, I know Facebook - but that just isn't the same as your blog.
So glad you're back!
