"Boring!!!!"
That's JK's newest response to anything he doesn't like or doesn't want to do!
But truthfully life has been anything but boring lately!
The following is a snippet of things going on in our household. I just started typing as things came to mind. If you make it through this post you are definitely a saint!
We are enjoying fabulous weather!! We have been jumping on the trampoline, going on bike rides, taking walks and spending oodles of time at the playground. Subsequently we are all exhausted by the end of the evening.
And speaking of being exhausted, I cannot get enough sleep since last Sunday. I am not enjoying daylight savings at all this year!!! I am usually a leap out of bed kind of gal...but not so much right now!!
I signed Rand up for a Red Cross Babysitting course. I cannot believe she is old enough!! She's very excited and I am equally excited to start utilizing her soon-to-be-learned skills!
Kenners is adding tennis lessons to her already overflowing schedule.
To my own crazy schedule, I have added on our town's Historic District Commission. I am serving as an alternate member. I'm not sure what all it entails but I am looking forward to being involved in something new. And it looks like I will continue on as PTO President for another year. I think this is a good thing! I hope the other parents agree!!
I'm anxiously awaiting to hear if Rand was accepted into the magnet school we selected for her. Every time I think about it I awaken the butterflies in my stomach. I try not to think about it.
I am absolutely in love with Target's Liberty of London line. I have purchased the pillow and lamp for the living room. Such a crazy pop of color!!!
DK has been gone from home this week. It was quite unexpected and due to last week's Nor Easter that hit New England. There are still thousands without electricity here in our state and he was mobilized to help coordinate the lodging and food for the utility workers. He snuck home this evening for some clean clothes and a home cooked dinner. And of course hugs and kisses from all of us!
I bought a new nail polish today. Haute Chocolate by Sally Hansen. I've been wearing Pat on the Black exclusively for months now but thought I'd trade it in for something new. I love this new color!!!

March is not only Madness due to basketball but also budget hearings!! DK has been gone 2-3 nights each week this month for town budget hearings in addition to his other Town Council meetings. Between the two of us meetings are a huge part of our lives. We don't mind. If we did, we would be in a heap of trouble!!!
Have I mentioned my father was diagnosed with bladder cancer? We found out on New Year's Eve...just about 3 months ago. I have quietly tried to deal with this development and have not told many people. Some things are just hard to talk about. Did I mention I've been having stress headaches?!
Well, my friends, it is now time for bed. This stressed out, overly tired mama is hitting the hay! Blessings to you if you finished reading this highly quirky and discombobulated post!! You are a true friend!
