I’m really killing it at this blogging thing! I haven’t
posted in for-ev-er (A few days shy of an entire year....yikes!)
I have the asbolute worst scatterbrain. I am pretty sure if
I were to start losing my marbles in old age, no one would really notice much.
(Disclaimer: I know, on a personal level, that Alzheimers is a terrible
disease, and I am not making light of it.) Not to mention, my life really isn’t
all that interesting.
Tomorrow is back-to-school day! I have mixed feeling about
it. The kids were fairly well behaved, and I don’t recall thinking to myself at
any point, “I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL VACATION IS OVER!!!” So, that’s a good thing.
They are a lot older now, and they can pretty much entertain themselves. They
did eat a butt load of food and run me ragged attempting to keep up with the
housework, though. I like not having a set routine, even though I need one
because of my scatterbrain.
The kids had a great Christmas and made out like bandits. I
decided a couple years ago that I was no longer buying gifts for the kids. They
all knew Santa wasn’t real and, quite frankly, I dreaded Christmas every year.
Do you know how almost impossible it is to shop for 6 kids and try to keep
everything equal and fair? I am pretty sure that’s where my grey wispies on my
temples came from. So, now, the kids get cash, and they can buy whatever their
hearts desire. Less stress. They are happy. I am happy, and we all live happily
every after. (And I give them grief about all the useless crap they buy lol)
Let’s see, what has happened since my last post. Lots of
laundry happened. My oldest daughter got her license then promptly wrecked her
car (smh). She is fine! The car is banged up, but still gets her from point A
to B. It is, apparently, totally embarassing to drive now. Sorry, kid. Live and
learn.
Hmmmm…..
The husband got a promotion. He is now a Lieutenant and
working at a women’s prison. After spending 13 years at a men’s prison, he said
the biggest difference is that if there is a fight, the women love to tell
everything they know. He said there could be 50 men who witness a fight, and
“no one saw anything”. The women are totally the opposite.
We went to Six Flags. We went to the movies. We went
ziplining. We went skating. We went swimming. A lot of regular stuff happened
in between, but that’s pretty much all I can think of. 2015 wasn’t a bad year.
