Blog Slacker

Hello blog friends...today I am a blog slacker.  But not for no reason at all.  You know how I get nervous when things begin to change...and life is changing again.  Coach will soon be returning to work.  The boys will be entering 3rd and 5th grade.  I will have NO kids in the primary school for the first time in 5 years.  I cannot even begin to tell you how anxious I am right now.

When I get anxious...I move furniture.  However...the changes occurring in the next month are bigger than usual so I called in a whole new kind of therapy.  Making over my room.  By "my" room...of course I mean "our" room.  But Coach knows and has known from the very beginning of this marriage...it is really "my" room.  I think he is fine with it because we have had probably 15 different bedspreads and comforters since we got married almost twelve years ago.  Today...we made changes.  We painted walls.  Now I also want you to know that by "we"...I of course mean "Coach" painted walls.  I occasionally moved stools around for him and did a little trimming...accompanied by nervously eating CheezIts. (Reduced fat...of course)

So I wanted to apologize for having nothing motivating or Godly about this post.  I am simply writing to explain my absence and in doing that...I am adding a picture of part of our newly done room.  On the bed, you'll notice two items in front of the red decorative pillow.  Diet pepsi and my fav. little pint of ice cream.  Yep...that's right.  Ice cream.  Oh well...tomorrow's a new day.  For today I'll eat CheezIts and ice cream and life will be good.  Tomorrow...things change.  Today I will enjoy every second...who knows what tomorrow will bring.  Tonight...I'll have a pretty room and ice cream.  Ahhhhhh.....

Have a good night and I promise to be better tomorrow!

It's ok. Really. Just can't imagine anyone stressing about their kids going off to school. Who does that? LOL!!!!!!! I myself, sat her last night getting a nervous stomach. Not so much for school starting in 2 weeks, but for schools starting next year. My "baby" will be in high school. And my baby, goes to kindergarten. i will be left at home (not alone) , but without any of my OWN children. This time next year, I will not be sleeping at night, and will be a complete mess. Just thinking about what a mess I'll be, makes me a mess.
Love your room. And WHO drinks diet pepsi? ? ? The similarities SCARE me.
