Walking Backwards

Okay, I totally and completely lied about writing an entry on Tuesday. I hope everyone can forgive me. Writing in my journal right now has transformed from something I regularly enjoy, into yet another chore right now. It isn't normally, but at the moment I have enough going on to think of any other activity that requires my time as a burden. The baby shower is going to be over on Saturday, but that stress-inducing nightmare is seguing into my school starting and orientations for Nicholas' preschool. Yay for that! I suppose that won't be so bad, but the two parent orientations are scheduled for evenings that I am going to be in school, so we have had to look for a babysitter so that Joe can attend by himself. I just hope he takes good notes because they are going to go over all of the parent work responsibilities and I am going to be doing 100 percent of them.


I'm feeling kind of let down that summer is almost over. Every year there is so much to do during the summer, so many fun things to see and attend, that I'm sad I don't have another three months with which to enjoy myself. I AM looking forward to the cooler weather and the chance to go outside without fear that the oppressive heat will give my son heat stroke. I'm sure Nicholas will be glad as well, he has always had a definate fondness for the outdoors.


I really need to get the baby to bed, so I have to put this venture of writing a journal entry aside for now. Hopefully I can dump my camera before too long to show you the pictures of why you should never leave a child alone with markers, no matter for how long.
