Things I've learned this week

  • I AM an anti-dentite. I know that now.
  • When it is spring vacation and we are off school for a whole week, one or more of the kids will ALWAYS get sick.
  • Their germs will, without fail, infect me and I will get sick.
  • I really do hate the dentist. (Have I mentioned my dental hatred yet? Have I?)
  • Not being able to chew because of sore teeth would take me to a very mean place were it not for the soft, chewy goodness of Reeses Peanut Butter eggs.
  • Which I vow to stop eating.
  • Tomorrow, I promise.
  • I can lose hours dreaming of my scrapbook room in the new house.
  • Dropping Josh's car off at the car transport place will make this move seem like actual reality. Which means I've got a lot of junk to get throwing away.
  • Make sure to clarify with the kids about the ACTUAL timing of the move. Otherwise, Chase will tell his entire class goodbye on the Friday before spring break. A few panicked mothers will call to check on us.
  • A bag of clay makes Chase ever-so-happy. (Note to self: Stop stifling his creativity with your laziness).
  • Favorite thing this week: Warm chocolate chip cookies and walks with my kids.
  • Best quote this week from Josh: "I'm so tired of genital herpes." (No, he doesn't have them, but he's sick of seeing the commercials on t.v. for it).
