Life has taken over . . .

Someone once said that "Life is what happens when you are busy making other plans."

I think that's especially true this last week.

It has been absolutely crazy this last week at work. I don't like to go into details about work here (because this is a personal blog), but we had to let someone go which turned out to be a week long process. And, I had to pick up some extra tasks because of it. Tasks I had not done before or had not done in a long time. So, I had to read the instruction manual each time I wanted to do something. It will be ok though. I'll limp along until my co-worker (who is on maternity leave) comes back and takers back over.

Anyway, that means I haven't had much time to THINK about blogging let alone do it.

But, Scott and Wyatt are at Menard's. So, I have a few extra minutes.

It's 9:30 (I didn't get up until 7 because I was so tired) and I've got a load in the washer. The dishwasher is ready to go as soon as the washer is done. There's another load of clothes and dishes waiting.

The boys have been fed. I got Wyatt ready to go to town with Scott.

I've showered . . . that was a nice, peaceful shower with no one else in the house.

And, I need to put a roast in the slow cooker and start some homemade yeast rolls.

I'm also going to try to make a loaf of apple cinnamon bread for Trina and maybe some cinnamon rolls for work again.

I'd also like to find some time to get in the pool again.

It's finally up, filled and stabilized with the chemicals. YAY!

Ok, so, since I've complained this whole post, I'll stay on the topic.

There are some people down the road who have yard art that drives me insane. It's a gorilla. Yup, that's what I said.

Not only is it stupid, but sometimes they put hats (or a mask at Halloween) on it.

They've also recently put their house up for sale. I hope they take the gorilla with them when they go.
