5 More Weeks, 5 More Weeks, 5 More Weeks
I’ve been repeating this over and over in my head. I have 5 more weeks left of my medical leave until I will be allowed to go back to work. And there are 5 more weeks until the kids go back to school. I was suppose to have some work I could do from home so that I wouldn’t miss out on a paycheck, but apparently they don’t have anything for me to do. Great. Nothing for me to do. Then I also have the task of keeping the boys entertained and happy. Both of those things are very hard to do! Like today for example, my youngest son’s friend called and asked to come over, so I decided to let my oldest have a friend over. This way, each boy has their own friend to play with and they don’t have to bother each other. Yea right, that’s not how it worked today. The two youngest boys annoyed the hell out of the two oldest one’s. So instead of listening to just my two boys argue I got to listen to four boys arguing. Great!
We have a pool that they could swim in, but of course half the summer has felt like April with showers! I’m not allowed to do much either, so it’s not like I can go re-paint a room in the house or something. Plus I get tired easily right now, so I’d have half the room done and be too tired to finish it. Both boys birthdays are next month within a week of each other. Both of them have been planning their birthday parties for the past 6 months. I think the latest plans they have are, one wants a pool party and one wants a laser tag party. Plus we are trying to plan a week away at my in-laws camp. I am also trying to think of something spectacular to do for my husband’s birthday on Labor Day weekend. I’d tell you how old he is, because it’s not that old, but I’m not sure if he wants the whole world knowing. Although we know only about 3 people actual read this blog. Anyways, it’s a big milestone so I want to do something really special for him. Shhhh don’t tell him okay!
5 more weeks to keep them happy, and fed. Holy Crap, having them home, they just eat everything in sight! It’s ridiculous! I don’t know where they put it all. Hopefully the sun will start shining more, and it will actually feel like summer!
