A Little Bit of This...Not Much of That...

How quickly time goes by!

Suddenly, in the midst of life, I remember that I have a blog on which I have not posted for awhile.

Sorry.

It's not that much has been happening. Just bits of life here and there. Nathaniel has tooth #8 (a molar) coming in on top and swollen gums heralding the imminent arrival of teeth #9 and #10 (also molars). I continue trying to keep food available for eating, dishes somewhat done, and a house that is not a complete and utter disaster zone.

It never ceases to amaze me how quickly the house can go from decent to "I might as well burn this place down and start anew." Which is about where we're at today.





This little box (for small toys) and a larger basket (for big toys) are SUPPOSED to be protecting the DVD player, Wii, and stereo from little fingers. As you might be able to tell, they are failing. Nathaniel is inspecting a DVD while chillaxing in the toy box.

I would love to spend time writing a deep, thoughtful post, or something very witty. But, my brain is basically consumed with some projects, some trips, and some preparations. Royal Family Kids' Camp is coming up in 12 days or so and I have just come to realize this will mean actual preparations for that for me and Nathaniel, but also for Jeff, who, I assume, will not think much about getting ready until about 11pm Saturday night. Camp starts Sunday morning.

Other things are astir, including basically selling my soul, sacrificing my son, and emptying my pockets to get tourist Visas for China. Can't you just take my tourist money and let me in?!

For your reading pleasure, I will link you to Jen Hatmaker's blog. She recently posted a blog entitled "Worst End of School Year Mom Ever", a hilarious rant that has even been posted (at least in part) on MSN and Huffington Post.
