To say that I’ve been busy is an understatement.  I’m not saying “Oh whoa is me” but rather “Stop the bus, the world, whatever, I need to take a break!”

It is fun to take a week off to have fun, relax, but when you get home things seem to pile up.  I mean really pile up!  Take the laundry—-please someone take it!  I don’t mind the laundry but it’s the ironing I dislike immensely, like with a passion.

Then there is the yard work.  I like getting outside, cutting the grass, planting, and watering.  But I did not rake the leaves last year and now my yard is so full of leaves mixed in with the weeds.  It looks disgusting.

House work is another story all together.  There’s the vacuuming, dusting, cleaning windows, and the list goes on and on.  Plus when you have three small dogs there is always dog hair, dog toys, and an occasional wet spot because I didn’t let them out soon enough.

Did I mention I watch my four year old granddaughter four days a week.  I love her right along with the rest of the other 16.  Just wish at least 10 of them lived closer!  I’m not excluding any—-the other six live within ear shot of me!

Now then when is there time to write—research—-conferences????  That is what I’m trying to work out so I can get some things finished.  Like my book that I’ve been working on for three years and I’m on the last two chapters…….HELP!

So guess I’d better get with it..

Until then…………………………………

Will keep you posted…………………………………….
