My Life..

if there was any doubt to how busy life can be for me...here's a quick post to lay out the exciting details of my life since the last post!

Thursday 6:30am - babies start arriving..turned out to be one of the worst days I have had in a long time with the little ones. Everyone was behaving badly, not listening, destroying the house and in general creating havoc!

Thursday 4:30pm - babies leave. Haley, Parker and myself immediately leave to pick up Rebecca for dance carpool. Drop them off. Parker and I head to Lowe's to pick out a new paint color. Scott calls. Says to stop off for an item or two for dinner. Leave Lowe's go to Schnucks only to find that location that I don't frequent is closed. Head to Walgreens in mad state as traffic is insane and don't want to drag it out any longer.

Thursday 6:15pm - arrive home. Sit Parker down to do homework. Shove dinner down. Finish homework. Haley arrives home.
