I Love My Neighborhood

Last night was National Night Out and it was a great success! We had 7 families out on our street corner, hanging out and running interference with all our kids. Our wonderful constables came by, passing out stickers and candy to grown ups and kids alike. Yes, my kiddos got to bed a little late, but it was well worth it. I love our little neck of the woods.

Can't believe it's only Wednesday - I'm just plain ole' tired. Mike is hunting with my dad and brothers-in-law and this single-mom thing gets old quickly. Plus, working on the yearbook for the boys school has geared up and has me busy for a few hours each week. I enjoy it, and would much rather work on that than laundry, but I'm not sure how the socks are going to get clean if I don't get off my duff and wash them.

I'm looking for some motivation -- have checked at Walmart, Target, and the grocery story without any luck. I have so many boxes sitting in my garage that have been there since the day I walked away from teaching that I still need to go through. Plus, our "spare bedroom" that Mike let me turn into my "craft room" (aka "crap room") is a disaster. But, until I find some motivation, those boxes and crap room are just going to sit there. I strive to be the super-organized, neat, have it all together woman, but it just isn't happening.
