First Day Of School

The first day of school with kids in the classroom. Man am I tired. All in all I think I have a good group. I have some that I know are ornery. They have that look in their eyes, and a left over summer buzz cut. I have one tattle tell, and some bossy little girls. I am excited.

That is the extent of this post. I guess I used up my brain today and I cannot think of any thing else good to say.

Broken Backs

I cannot even remember when I blogged last.

This week went down hill fast. My husband had the whole week of vacation and did not even get to enjoy the week. We went out with friends on Saturday night danced and drank and danced. Then Sunday morning we got up to pick the boys up from their MeMe's and Travis' back went out. He has had a few episodes where his back gives him trouble but he always seems to still function. This time it was BAD. He put on socks and wham he made a noise normally men cannot make. Like a good wife I gave him the cordless phone and left him at home. I picked up the boys we went to this ice cream thing that was going on at a park in town. We came back home and Travis was not any better. He took two pills and crawled to the car. I took the boys to my mom's and I took Travis to the ER. There we sat forever with every mality in the world. Travis finally went to see the doctor he took an x-ray gave him 2 shots and sent him home. That was a ball of fun.

I am now back at work. I know I know those poor teachers have to go to work after being off for almost 3 months. People have no idea how hard it is to go back to work after that long. My favorite thing to hear is I am so glad my kids are going back to school they are driving me crazy. Yeah that's what I want some kids that drive people crazy. I am reved up for that.

I am doing what I love however. I will get my new pack of seeds. I will feed them with knowledge, water them with thoughts, and let their roots dig into places to help them grow. When they bloom in the spring, they can run and drive their parents crazy for another summer.

The pool is open for another week, I get out of in service every day at 3:00 and I am in a lounger with a bottle of water by 3:50.

I am back at work and you cannot fix things that are not broken. I will not have a school year that will break me.
