At least I hope to. August has been a rough month with the huge exception of my kids birthdays and prior to my friends' mutual losses... I want to move away from all that and just talk about now..
Right now.. I am sitting here listening to my children play in the next room and the humming sound of their toy trains as they click down their wooden tracks.. Right now I am thinking about how sorry I am for having a short temper, lack of patience, and no sleep on which to function to be the mama I need to be for them.
My life for the most part is a good one... and honestly with bombs landing all around me.. I am waiting for the one to fall right overhead.. and it scares me. I hope September can bring these feelings back in check so that I can breathe again. I always have looked forward to the fall and never have I wished it to come faster than I do now.
Oh the kids had a wonderful birthday party full of Owl Cupcakes from Grandma and tons of gifts from everybody, the huge Chick Fil A cow, and everyone got to play and I honestly had a great time and didn't even stress out about it at all. I am so glad. Although it didn't save my house from being completely wrecked but that was more because of the room switching than the gifts and wrappers.. We then headed off with Crystal and Andy to Possum Festival which was more republican rally than a festival.. but she got to pet the possum so all was worth it.
After that we ended up broken down at the Hobby Lobby.. and much chaos ensued as both our men went off to get a battery by crossing a 4 lane hwy in the dark.. even after we already called someone to come take them. We grabbed some pizza and watched movies until they had to go.. and they left and had a flat tire. SO it was kinda like every car that could break did that day.
Didn't ruin it for anyone. I needed a nice day :)
Waiting for another good day :)
