I've been in a tornado for 2 weeks. Holy Crow.
I went from having a fairly simple day job with plenty of down time and relaxation...to suddenly having 2 jobs, being a full time student, and having a kid in 11th grade and a kid in kindergarten...all within the past two weeks. Don't get me wrong, I love it. But my body hurts. :)
I'm having one of those Wow moments. Because my whole life I've never really known what I wanted to be when I grew up. And now I do. I'm still going to pursue my teaching degree...just to have it. But my new job...THAT is it. It fits me so well. I love it.
JDRW is doing awesome in kindergarten. On Friday I packed his lunch which included an apple. :) As I was packing it, he said, "I can give that to my teacher." I was like, um, but it's part of your lunch, why don't you eat this one and we'll buy your teacher one later. He said ok, and that was that. When he came home he had a note from his teacher that said "Thank you for the yummy apple." The little shit!!! How cute is that tho? I know I've never said anything to him about bringing his teacher an apple? He did it all on his own. Little charmer. :)
It's autumn! :) I bought a pumpkin yesterday. YAY!!!!!! In a few days our front yard will be completely covered in leaves. And it'll smell so good! I'm making chicken noodle soup today...what a wonderful time of year.
For the record, I HATE my hair. I need it to grow out already. I feel like an old person. I have old person hair. I want to have funky cute girl hair. But I don't. Not even close.
And, that's all the time I have for now. I have home work to do, and reports to write for work, and I'm sure there's something around her that needs cleaning and any second now JDRW is going to request toast and chocolate milk (I swear as I was typing that sentence he said, "I want breakfast." Haha.).
So, have a good day kiddos...and...if you know of any cute cozy snuggly chics...give them my number...because it's snuggle weather and I'm missin' it.

That's funny about the apple...

I had a friend who's son (who's a little precocious) had a note sent home the first week of school. Apparently Jacob went up to the teacher to ask "If I haven't done anything, would you be mad?
"No." came the reply from the teacher.
"Well. I didn't do my homework. So you can't be mad, you already said so."
Kindergarten.
Wow.
If your "old woman hair" is the hair in your profile picture, I think it is mighty cute. It's just how you're feeling these days. That, and the fact that hair just grows too balls-ass slow. Love you.
Thank you Anonymous for your encouraging words. Wait, isn't that a song...Oh, no, that's Home Home on the Range, where the dear and the antelope play, where seldom is heard, a discouraging word....
:)
I'll post a pic soon of this stupid grandma hair. It's like its not even mine. It's like someone plopped someone elses hair on my head. It has it's own independent life outside of mine. It is, indeed, a beast I have yet to tame.
And, f8hasit...yeah, kindergarten has been good to JDRW so far. He's a charmer. I wouldn't call him precocious...we often call him an imp tho. :)
