depressed......

This winter has been really long and I'm sick of it.

I feel depressed. It's Easter and there's still a good foot of snow outside.
It SUCKS!!

Back to School......

Well I just finished my first week of my 2nd semester and it went pretty well.



Except when it came to getting normal, everyday stuff ready for the kids. The most serious "crime" was against my son who is 5 and in SK. He goes to school every Monday, Wednesday and every other Friday. On the Fridays, the kids can participate in the hot lunch program. You have to buy tickets in advance (which I did) and they have to be sent in, there isn't a record that shows you intend for your child to get a hot lunch. Because this program is only for the SK class, they don't get a choice of what they want--it's pizza or nothing. The rest of the school has hot lunch on Thursdays and it alternates between pizza and hot dogs so you need to keep track. Anyway, call it a blond moment, blame it on lack of sleep, whatever, I didn't send in the tickets.

WHY???

Because at 5:30 in the morning on Friday, I had it in my brain that he DID get a choice and that I had no idea whether it was pizza or hot dogs so .......I couldn't send a ticket. I look forward to these days because it means that packing a lunch is much easier, it's only snacks!
Only when I picked him up later that day did I realize my mistake. That's when I realized I have too much going on in my life and I need to find a better way to deal with it.

I'm still looking............
